"If you’re driving watch out the hotel is easy to miss, it’s on your right hand side as you go up the steep narrow street. If possible turn into the side road just before the hotel and park near the junction. The hotel car park is not far from there. Lovely quiet situation but not far from the town centre. Nice room with comfortable bed. The staff are friendly and helpful."

"Room was OK, A/C worked good which was nice. Parking in basement was a challenge, not for bigger cars for sure and you need to be able to navigate your vehicle carefully, not much room to get around. Breakfast was OK, a missed a bit of more healthy options. Friendly and helpful staff most of the time even with a few language challenges, receptionists spoke good English though."

Tiny Escape

Tiny Escape

10/10 Excellent
"Tiny escape is a perfect stay for those interested in exploring the lesser traveled regions of Portugal while also experiencing the comfort and amenities of staying in your own home. The location of tiny escape allows for a variety of adventures, whether you stay near the property or venture out to one of the many incredible destinations near tiny escape. Our first day, we hiked one of the many trails that are accessible right on the property. These hikes can be as short or long as you make them, and you can find lookout points that provide a panoramic view of the mountains and villages around the property. Our next day, we drove the easy 1 hour drive to the Douro valley to enjoy wine tastings at some of the many wineries available. For our next day trip, we explored Serra Da Estrela, Portugal’s highest mountain range. It was a two hour drive from tiny escape with incredible views along the way, making it well worth the drive. Beyond the many activities that the region has to offer, the hosts of tiny escape make sure that every guest has everything they need, and have included many thoughtful touches in each tiny home. When entering your home expect to be greeted with a basket of local wine and fruit, including oranges for fresh squeezed orange juice in the mornings. Our tiny home also had incredible views overlooking the valley, which we were able to take in each morning while enjoying a cup of espresso. Highly recommend this property for a unique and experiential stay!"
