“Breakfast are traditional continental style - Portuguese ham is superb. The location is a little isolated so one is dependent on having a car to travel to local amenities. We were unable to make full use of the swimming pool due to the cold weather.”

“Everything was beautiful. We had an excellent dinner and breakfast. We also were very well looked after. We were given a tour of the building and the grounds which were both lovely and historically interesting.”

“The host and other staff were best in the business. Super nice and always ready to help. Nothing to complain and can highly recommend it to everyone. Thank you for the amazing stay and hope to see you again!”

“Everything! The staff is incredible and very attentive, willing to do everything they can to satisfy their customers. The place is beautiful, with great views, the pool is amaaaazing and the bedroom is great too! We had dinner there and it was delicious! We are definitely coming back! Muito obrigada por tudo, Jorge, Rosario, Miguel e Filipe! Um abraço da pequena Belém e dos pais :)”

“Very relaxing and Elegant Beauty, near Lima river. Great cycle track to Ponte de Lima and Viana do Castello at door step. Warm and hospitable hosts, surrounded by tastful and comfortable accommodation of very high standards.”

“Bicycles available, ECOVIA and Lima river at walking distance. Amazing big and confortable rooms and WCs. Ouststanding bad.”

“What a find! A lovely, welcoming rural hotel steeped un tradition. The staff were all very friendly from the minute we arrived to the minute we left. We stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed one relaxing day near the pool, in fact we had the pool to ourselves for the day, and the other days touring around the area. We ate in 2 nights, there is no restaurant as such but they do offer a choice of meat/fish dishes and a 3 course meal served in the dining room or on the terrace if the weather is kind. Food was delicious especially the cod fish.We ate in Ponte de Lima the other night which was also enjoyable. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast very satisfying. It would be great to return one day!”

“This place is a gem. Not only is it beautifully decorated, serene, and with the best beds EVER - but the staff can’t do enough to make you feel at home. Miguel, Filip, and Paula were so generous and kind - we felt very well taken care of. Getting a taxi into Ponte de Lima is easy as can be so do yourself a favour and stay here and have a relaxing retreat from it all.”

“A great spot with fantastic and delightful staff ... many thanks to the team.”

“Um pequeno cantinho do Paraíso. A decoração e manutenção do sítio estão tão bem executadas que nos sentimos numa viagem no tempo. É visível a dedicação dos proprietários em preservar este pedaço de História. O quarto tinha muita privacidade e conforto, com tetos altos, camas confortáveis e ar condicionado para aquele fim de semana de calor. Só estávamos nós e mais outro casal no alojamento e mesmo assim sentimos que tínhamos a propriedade só para nós, para passear no terreno e mergulhar na piscina (que também inclui uma bela vista). Não possui bar para pedidos extraordinários, como acontece em alguns hotéis, mas o dono explicou que estavam a fazer obras com essa ampliação em vista. Foi mesmo maravilhoso e providenciou o sossego que tanto queríamos.”“0”
