Country House in Portugal

"Was as advertised. "

"My fiancé and I stayed at Somewhere Estoril Guesthouse for 2 nights. The hotel is off the main area a bit. The train is very convinent to take over to Cascáis- takes 4 mins. Buy a Viva Vitamen card in advance. The pool is not heated. The rooms were clean and as described. Reception was very helpful, we will be back to stay. "

"Beautiful, peaceful, relaxing stay. Property is wonderful, staff superb, wine and food a joy. You will not be disappointed."

"Fantastic staff and environment in Provesende. We were sorry to leave but hope to come back one day. Everything was excellent. "

"This is a beautiful place. "

"The welcoming staff was warm and helpful. Our bedroom was very small. The road to get there was quite challenging. But overall, we really enjoyed our stay right next to the castle."

"Clean, comfortable, amazing service, delicious breakfast, beautiful grounds. My only regret is only booking one night. Please know this property is rural- about a 10 minute drive from the nearest town."

"Everything was wonderful! Many thanks. "

"Amazing historic noble house. "

"The property was in a beautiful location on top of a mountain served well by local buses. The room we had was large but open plan with shower and toilet. The shower was amazing hot and powerful. Electrics in the room were dodgy .And being out of season the pool and hottub were not available which would have been nice to know before booking. The fireplace was not useable. We were given a heater that worked well. Overall we had a lovely stay it was what we needed a break from normal life ,...

"This is a special, unique and totally well-run place. The host, Antonio, is kind, efficient, and welcoming. We hope to return some day!"

"Beautiful peaceful comfortable clean friendly stunning views delicious breakfasts helpful team - great location - thank you!"

"Our stay at Casa de Casal de Loivos exceeded all our expectations—and I say that in spite of some windy, rainy days! Bernardo was so gracious and helpful. Before we even arrived he was letting us know about road closures and provided directions for the best route. Upon arrival, our bags were brought in for us and he even volunteered to park our car. The complementary snack and wine were delicious and enjoyed in front of a cozy fireplace. Bernardo provided information for hiking, port and...

"We loved this place from the moment we pulled into the parking area. When Angela greeted us in the reception area, we knew it was going to be a special stay. She offered us some team and gingerbread cookies and gave us a quick tour of the facilities. OMG, what a wonderful place. We travel a lot, this place is magical. So peaceful and quiet, we overslept in the morning (very unusual for us). Just lovely. "

"Really lovely and unusual property. Old stone with a courtyard, all cleverly renovated, with all modern conveniences and spotlessly clean. Set in beautiful countryside with wonderful views and enchanting walks nearby. The food was fantastic, all homemade by the brilliant chef. A fantastic stay, thank you!"

"A great place to unwind after hectic days of sightseeing with superb views and surrounded by nature. A walk down the lake followed by an excellent dinner in the restaurant was just the ticket. Whilst the commitment to zero waste was commendable the concept of ordering dinner a day in advance was a little inconvenient and might cause guests to miss the excellent food in the restaurant. They shouldn’t, it’s good! When we first arrived there had clearly been a period of wet weather and the room...

"Casa Pinto is in the perfect location to visit the historic town of Monsaraz."

"A stunning view of the Douro valley. We had an excellent dinner. One needs to make reservations beforehand to eat there. There is nowhere else in the area to dine. We were not given a dinner option however, the roast beef dinner was excellent as well as the dessert. The car ride up is a bit sketchy because it’s a VERY narrow to lane road winding up a Mt !! However the view makes the trip most worthwhile. Bedroom was nicely decorated and comfy. "

"A pleasant quinta on the edge of the furniture capital of Portugal. Pool and gym enjoyed by local residents as well as guests. Easy relaxed location after days of shopping."
