Wir waren hier für 3 Tage als Teil einer Rundreise durch Portugal. Wir konnten nicht so viele Bewertungen für den Ort finden und besorgt, dass es etwas abgelegen und so waren nicht ganz sicher, was uns erwarten würde. Bei der Ankunft verflüchtigten sich alle Anliegen sofort. Das Haus ist einfach atemberaubend und wir fühlten uns willkommen von Andre machte die Bestätigung gingen wir. Das Bauernhaus selbst ist recht groß, mit einem großen Wohnzimmer, Esszimmer, TV/Musik/Film, Bibliothek und 2 kleinere Lounges. Alle Türen öffnet sich zur Terrasse, die den Atem hat Aussicht über das Tal und den Fluss Douro und einen Pool auf der unteren Terrasse. Wir hatten das Hotel für uns, das sehr lecker war und wir konnten total entspannen Sie sich am Wochenende. Das Haus ist abgelegen, aber wenn man auf der Suche nach Entspannung ist es ein tolles Hotel. Die Mahlzeiten werden im Haus wenn man nicht laufen will, am Abend werden, und sind mit den Weinbergen eigenen Weine serviert. Der Service von Andre war sehr aufmerksam und unaufdringlich und das lokale Essen er zubereitet einfach fantastisch (und reichlich!)

“Quinta da penada👍”

We had a great time with delicious food and charming hosts. Certainly go there if you want an excellent Portguese Meal. The chef speaks good english and is very helpfull in choosing the right dish with a perfect Douro wine.

“Fantastic views - abysmal food.”

Great views, terrible food! We stayed two nights and the facilities were nice, clean and at decent value for money. The dinner, at 35€, which the estate offers was absolutely horrendous though. Overcooked steak, the wines were nothing else than low-quality and served at totally wrong temperature… Mehr

Great views, terrible food! We stayed two nights and the facilities were nice, clean and at decent value for money. The dinner, at 35€, which the estate offers was absolutely horrendous though. Overcooked steak, the wines were nothing else than low-quality and served at totally wrong temperatures, which an estate in the middle of Portugals wine region could definitely improve upon. Breakfast was ok-ish, but very basic. The location is sub-par, as it‘s close to a 30 minute drive from Pinhão were all the major restaurants are, which makes it hard to not choose dinner at the estate.

“Remote but stunningly beautiful location ”

The location is very isolated but spectacular, the views are idyllic and it is well worth the breath-stopping/breathtaking journey to get there!!

The location is very isolated but spectacular, the views are idyllic and it is well worth the breath-stopping/breathtaking journey to get there!! The journey is not for the faint hearted but it is well worth it when you arrive at this place but it is perfect for those that want to truly experience the real Portugal. The place itself is raw and rustic but in all the right ways, a little shocking when you first arrive especially if you are used to prompt service and luxurious settings BUT this has so much more than the most flamboyant hotels have as the hosts are so real and hospitable, the venue is old and historic while still being comfortable and homely and the views are second to none. We and did not know what to expect when we got there and you are truly isolated in this hotel, however you can get breakfast and dinner here (there is nothing else nearby) although dinner is not for the unadventurous either as there is no menu, you are served whatever is on offer on the day and do not know what this is until it is served(!!) - but rather than this being a negative (even for me the fussiest of eaters) this is truly part of the charm of the place as the hosts do everything with a touch of class and a lot of care and love. They give food and drink from the heart and you cannot help but fall in love with this place and the hosts. A place well off the beaten track but well worth taking a chance on. · The lack of channels on the tv - we could only get two channels and they were both German which is not ideal for English only speakers!! I hate myself for writing this but you are literally so isolated here the tv is one of the only forms of entertainment - you need to bring a book!!
