It’s a lovely place, super cosy & clean! The nature is everywhere! The owner and staff are super nice & accessible! I will be back for sure!!!!
United States of AmericaAmazing find. Loved the history of the property and the fact that they use vegetables etc from their own garden in their restaurant. Dinner was wonderful. The room was huge and furnished with period furniture.
CanadaNice secluded but yet close to Chaves. Had a meal and it was stupendously good, could not have asked for better hospitality
United KingdomLuis was a great host and place was in a lovely location on their own estate/farm. We upgraded our room for an extra 10€ and had a massive suite overlooking the farm. Lots of lounge areas and also their own chapel with an interesting history. They catered for us beautifully esp being vegetarian with wines to match and it was all delicious and we probably ate far too much! Enjoyed strolling around the farm and saw a new born lamb, plus horses and sheep and lots of poultry, plus massive veggie garden. Thoroughly recommend it. Wish it had been warmer to take advantage of the lovely pool.
AustraliaWe arrived to Quinta da Mata at 9 pm. Once you pass the gates and you park the car there is the sound of the sheep and crickets with the lights of Chaves as landscape. If you arrived stressed and tired this is the place to relax! We were promptly received by Luis that gave as a warm welcome. The dinner was marvelous and the winery of Luis is the place were you can buy great wines for a great price. The Olive oils are also amazing. The staff couldn’t be nicer... we were supposed to stay one night, but we love it so much that we stayed longer. The place is dog friendly! The experience was that good! A place to come back!
BelgiumVery enthusiastic host with knowledge of local wines. Lovely pool. Great views from the terrace. It was no trouble for them when we asked to eat outside.
United KingdomSeeing Quinta da Mata in late Spring was a bonus after our recent visit in December 2020. It’s a great location for a day’s drive heading to Santander for the ferry back to the UK. Such beautiful gardens and the surrounding area and not far from the wonderful town of Chaves. The dogs loved it too!
United KingdomThe quinta building is beautiful, as well as areas around and the view. We have had a very warm welcome and we were very impressed by the hospitality. The owner is very nice, he shares the story of the place. And this place is fantastic, with an unique atmosphere and touch of care at every little thing. Breakfast is also wonderful. Highly recommended and we are looking forward to come back one day for a proper longer stay. Also to note, we are traveling with a baby and a cat, and they both were very welcome and enjoyed this place very much. Many thanks for this charming experience. Muito obrigada Luis, sua gentileza é inspiradora. Tudo de bom para você e espero vê-lo na próxima vez. Com os melhores cumprimentos, Valentina
PortugalSuch an interesting accommodation from a historical perspective; fantastic views and fabulous inside, so rich in history. Luis was an excellent, excellent host and although we were the only ones there, we had a very tasty dinner. We could only stay a night which doesn’t do Quinta da Mata any justice, and perhaps winter doesn’t reveal the property in all its glory. We slept well after a long journey and the bedrooms are beautiful. Thank you Luis for looking after my sister and I so well.
United KingdomExcellent. Super friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable owner. Lovely staff. Great food. Superb wines. We'll be back. Highly recommended.
