One of those great old Manor House conversions that you can find all over Portugal. Big rooms, modern interiors, big bathrooms with all facilities and comfortable beds. Wide, bright corridors, lots of space in all the public rooms and nice gardens. Swimming-pool open and serviced... terrace with tables and for us there was sunshine. A great place to stay.! Restaurant was open and breakfast was good. The cost of the room was almost too good to believed.! Certainly recommended.

The bedroom had a few spiderwebs, some of the furniture was showing a lot of tear and wear. Was expecting a little better from a 4 star hotel. Very difficult to communicate if not portuguese.
The food was very good, lots of choices and good quality. The staff were very nice, especially the servers.

“beyond anything we expected”

It was just timing, but the pool was overtaken by kids playing with balls and dive bombing...we'd have loved a swim at the temperature of our visit 27c
Good range of items on offer for breakfast and all of it fresh and freshly prepared. Location was fascinating...adjacent to the ruins of the mines (in the name) and a beautiful Barragem over which the sun set...stunning. If you visit, please take time to visit the mine ruins as the guy who built the manor house from which the hotel was converted...was the mine the owner in the 19th Century.

Nothing. This was our second visit and we took friends this time.
Set in a quiet rural area next to a lake and man made beach. So peaceful! The hotel is well kept, clean and comfortable and the staff so friendly and helpful. The hotel grounds are really well maintained and the pool lovely. Great value for money - we did dinner bed and breakfast which was all good.

Signposting to the hotel coming from North was not good, we drove straight past so had to turn around. Better coming the other way.
Friendly staff. Unique building with history, rooms named after stars/planets as there is an observatory available. Lovely outdoor swimming pool with many loungers. All very clean and well kept. Dinner and breakfast very good. Really enjoyed our stay here.
