Relaxing and tranquil farm stay

Ideally located accommodation to explore the beautiful North and its hidden gems. We were welcomed by Jorge, our wonderful, kind and knowledgeable host who gave us useful tips of what to see in the area. The accommodation is very spacious and had everything we needed to feel comfortable. Quiet area with stunning views from the terrace.

8/10 Good

Ideal for a holiday away from the crowds. Beautiful location and a friendly helpful owner.

We spent a very enjoyable week here. The accommodation is well-equpped and homely. Jorge, our host, lives in the adjacent property. He was very welcoming and helpful, but otherwise left us to enjoy our holiday. We particularly valued Jorge's advice about the best places to visit, restaurants and local amenities. The area is attractive without being "touristy". The property has some great views and a lovely garden. It is within easy driving distance of interesting historical centres in the Douro region including Vila Real, Mateus Palace, Guimaraes, Braga and Lamego. The attractive local town, Amarante, has good shopping and restaurants. We were fortunate to be there for the annual St John festival which was great fun. Ideas for improvement: an information pack for the local area would have been helpful.
