The kitchen was very slow at breakfast and dinner. In fact, at breakfast a couple who arrived after us was presented with food before us.

The breakfast was very good. Glad to know they made eggs for breakfast. But the kitchen was very slow at breakfast and dinner the night before.

The shower. I hate showers over bathtubs.

The location is not for everyone, but we loved it. It is isolated from the nearest villages, but the views more than compensate for that you're pretty much required to have dinner in their, very good (!), restaurant if you want to have glass or two of wine.

The coffee machine: coffee tasted artificial, which is a pity in Portugal, where coffee is usually at its best and freshly brewed. Some of the options of the 3 course evening meal are quite pricey.

The quinta is situated at about 5 km from Pinhào, splendidly set on top of a hill with gorgeous views over the terraced vineyards. We were personally welcomed by the very friendly owner, us and our dog, our room was on the ground floor, large and comfortable. The grounds are lovely, provided perfect morning and evening walks for all of us. We didn't use the pool as it was off season. Breakfast is plentiful and included in the price of the room, with lactose free options, fresh orange juice, eggs, cheese and ham, pastries, corn flakes, lots to choose from. One can have dinner in the restaurant - book ahead of time and choose your options-, very well prepared and carefully served. The wine by the glass-both red and white- were good value and excellent. It is a perfect place from which to explore the surroundings without stress

It was fairly far from the rest of the local attractions, at least a 30 minute drive.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and the setting was stunning!

Checkin and check out process was extremely manual and slow. Could be streamlined. Food was pricey for the quality. You are quite far (about 20 mins drive) from town, so they do have to get everything organized and onsite.

Location was beautiful, lovely view from our upstairs room, lots of outside space to enjoy wine, very quiet. The staff were extremely helpful and hard working, and despite being down some staff members, really took time to talk and help us out. Large and beautiful property. The drive out from Pinhoa was lovely. Pinhao was extremely busy and bustling, we were happy to be a little away from that in such a peaceful setting.

My rating is only affected as we didn't have a car - so it was hard to get anywhere or to the town without a taxi which weren't that plentiful. Our host happily helped us arrange it each day. We also felt the beds and pillows were a bit stiff for us. Everything else was lovely.

The property was lovely and historic. It is a true working winery and farm. It's beautiful with an incredible setting and views - the pool area was gorgeous and a welcome experience on a hot day. The staff is so gracious and willing to help. We had one of the most comprehensive wine tours and tastings I've ever had from one of the owners.

Surroundings, comfort decent.

A bit hard to get to.

Great staff and facilities.

We felt we were part of a household rather than being an anonymous guest. The location was very good (you have to be prepared to drive because it is in a remote location) with a swimming pool and garden. There is a restaurant on site so you do not need to go out in the evening.

Wi-Fi is not very good, but saying that, wasn’t bothered at all

Beautiful location in the middle of vineyards, not far from Pinhao Excellent guided tour through the winery with a very knowledgeable lady Great dinner and a simple but good breakfast Rooms are not big but they are clean and comfortable Nice pool with a great view of the surrounding hills and vineyards Very quiet location - loved the silence of the countryside!

The distance from the nearest town, and the uncertainty of taxi availability, makes it difficult to dine off property in the evening. However, we chose to stay at the hotel for dinner, and the meals were good.

The setting of the hotel amongst vineyards and lemon trees was spectacular. It is a small hotel, so guests receive more personal attention than at larger hotels. The staff were welcoming and friendly.

Swarms of bees at the pool area were a bit of a nuisance so having drinks there was challenging. Dinners there felt a little awkward although the food was delicious.

The location amongst the vineyards was amazing with incredible views. The pool area was lovely too. The Estates wines were delicious

Given the location in the mountains, internet and tv is not always available. This is to be expected given its remoteness. Good for disconnecting.

We stayed for three nights. Breakfast was included and had lots of variety, including eggs. We had a wine tour and tasting on our first night and it was lovely. Take the opportunity to have the wine tasting when you can as it is not always available pending on staff capacity. Given its remoteness, reading by the pool and enjoying the view was perfect for a relaxing vacation. Had the table d'hote each night of our stay which was like a home cooked meal with a high end flair. Nice place owned by Portuguese family.

For a wine estate in Douro it lacks any mention to wines, possibility of doing wine tastings or getting explanations, they never offered the possibility of trying their wine or buying it. We tried at dinner and it was pricey for guests in comparison to other places in Douro. Staff was very nice though

Breakfast complete, eggs available on request; view from the upper rooms and pool are stunning, quite scenic dinner

Stayed in August 2023

Only comment regarding the food would be that some of the main courses were average. This is not the place to stay if you like your dinner in a rush. A relaxed pace with stunning views and great wine and port

Breathtaking surroundings. Staff are friendly and this place has a personal feel to it. Highly recommend the wine tasting, given by the owner. Breakfast is amazing here. Highly recommend
