“Where you can drink fresh from the tree orange juice for breakfast and wine from the vine for happy hour! Just the best”
+We chose Quinta Das Escomoeiras for the opportunity to stay at a working Portuguese vineyard and get a taste of life in rural Portugal. The property was just gorgeous! Beautiful landscaping, views and old world architecture. Fernando, our host, walked us around acres of his property, telling us about the grape vines, cherry and other fruit trees, his organic vegetable gardens and the importance of the river at the base of the hilly property. We tasted wines on the patio overlooking the lush gardens, pool and vineyard. Fernando, shared the history of the Quinta and how it came to be “Quinta Das Escomoeiras.” We felt like we were visiting with family.
−Leaving!

“Wonderful quiet place to stay in gorgeous renovated accommodation. Fernando made us feel extremely welcome”
+Stunning property in a quiet beautiful location. The views and sound of the owl across the valley at night was amazing. We hired bikes from Fernando and cycled along the Tamega railway line. Fernando is a fantastic host and we loved his organic wine produced on the premises. The food was great too. We hope to be back one day.

+Where to start? What a special place. We felt so welcome and the welcome drink and charcuterie were splendid. We enjoyed chatting with the owner Fernando who acquired, renovated and expanded over 15 years. It is a truly special place. Fernando offers a limited menu of local items and fresh produce from the gardens. The pool.is glorious. You can walk down to the river for a swim, stroll the vineyards or just enjoy the various terraces.I could go on and on. Book your stay for at least a couple of nights and just relax! There's no AC, but you won't need it. wifi is spotty so turn off your device. If you really need it you can get online easily. Enjoy Fernando's creation! Oh, breakfast is fabulous with juices and condiments made from the produce grown on the property.

“Pleasant, friendly , ecological stay, excellent host”
+The location, the quietness, the ecological footprint, the host, the wine tasting and the local recommendations.
−The old, small, cracking bed in our room, other rooms might be better fitted. But just as a minor detail.

“Magical secluded spot”
+The Quinta is a magical tucked-away place. We were warmly welcomed by Fernando offering a 'welcome drink' which turned out to be a bottle of his delicious wine and a large plate of cheese and charcuterie - a meal really. We were the only guests and enjoyed relaxing by the pool and swimming in the river. The river is dammed and deep, perfect for a proper swim of several 100m. We seemed to have the whole river to ourselves (except for the fish and the herons).The nearby cycle path is a bonus and there are reasonable bikes for guests' use. Breakfast was delicious and we were able to enjoy it on the terrace. The whole stay was just really relaxing. We didn''t want to take the car out once we got there and we were able to have a small barbecue in a summer kitchen area near the pool. I think I panicked Fernando by asking if I could stay for ever!
−The following didn't bother us but guests should be aware: The Quinta is quite remote so I'd say it's more a place to go to relax rather than to use as a base for sightseeing. I'm sure Amarante was as quick by bike on the amazing (and direct) cycle path, as it was driving by car through all the hairpins. Also Fernando offers snacks but not cooked meals. That's fine for one night but eating out does require a longish drive on narrow windy lanes ( I think there's one cafe between there and Amarante). A possible solution is barbecuing as we did but this isn't an advertised facility so check if that's important to you. Also sauna and steam room mentioned on the website didn't seem to be in use - again this didn't bother us, the last thing we wanted to do was sit in a sweaty box when we were in such a beautiful place. We had a beautiful antique bed but it was very creaky!
