    The road from Pinhão is windy (as you'd expect) and the drive way to the hotel steep. We did get used to it though!

    A fantastic outlook from our room and a very comfortable room. We didn't eat dinner here but heard favourable reports of the food and breakfast was good. Our host, was wonderful and went out of her way to help us with a problem we had.

    Wifi didn't work, but as Europeans we could just use our data plan. Breakfast was a bit hectic, as they serve you eggs and mandarin juice individually, but sometimes staff was too busy with check-out at the same time.

    Location is excellent to discover the Douro valley by car. Gorgeous views, and very comfortable room. Staff is lovely and very accomodating. We were contacted before arrival to ask whether we wanted dinner (3 courses with lots of options to choose from), which was very convenient after a long day of travelling. The wines from the estate are really good as well.

    We enjoyed our time at the hotel but some aspects are a little chaotic, for example dinner in the restaurant. However, the staff are so lovely that you forgive them.

    Great rural hotel. Staff were excellent, very personable, kind and helpful. Comfortable room. Pretty gardens and great views.

    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

    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.

    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.
