Outstanding welcome! Didi and her family are terrific hosts. She went out of her way to make us feel at home. Thank you! We stayed 5 nights and did not want to leave. The historic house and the pool were wonderful with views of their land and the whole valley.

Quintana Grande is a delightful place .
Quintana Grande is a beautiful place . The hostess is very welcoming and was eager to share the story of her house and grounds with us. The room we had was very tastefully decorated, the bathroom was clean and modern . The grounds were beautiful, with a pool, vineyard and orchard and had a great view of the Douro valley. The suggestion where to find a restaurant was very nice, we had dinner there twice . The place is quite hard to find, and the little road up to it is also quite skinny....All in all, a great stay !

Not real easy to find and the roads are very narrow and curvy, but it felt like we were staying in the real Portugal and the host was wonderful. Suggestions to host, it would be nice to have a second trash container in the bedroom and soap and shampoo dispensers on the shower wall. And for the life of us we cannot figure out why no one in Portugal uses solar rooftop water heaters for the pools as they are always freezing. If solar is used, the energy is free. Only have the cost of installation.

Unique place to stay for the Douro Valley
This is a farmhouse renovated by its delightful owner , Dede . Built by her grandfather over 150 years ago . The wine presses can be seen in the house . Dede speaks several languages including english and joined her guests for breakfast and interesting conversation . The rooms were spacious and clean . The views amazing . Great for exploring the Douro Valley and visiting Porto .evening meals are available . If you want to stay in a typical Portuguese farmhouse then stay here . You will be assured of a warm welcome .

Great location and such a friendly host. Didia made us feel very welcome with a welcome Port drink and music from old gramophone. She shared stories of her family history connected to the house. Beautiful room with view overlooking the Duoro Valley. We left satisfied with a lovely breakfast. Great place to explore the Duoro Valley.

Very nice hotel with an outstanding view
After an epic search to locate the hotel due to the lack of road information, we were very happy to finally arrive at a beautiful hotel in the Douro mountains. Even though they did not serve meals except for breakfast, they provided details on some restaurants nearby that ended up being excellent and affordable. We would have like more areas to relax and read inside the hotel but the lighting was unsufficient and we had to settle for the chairs by the pool side. Owners were very nice and explain how to travel around the beautiful Douro cities.

Peaceful & Perfect
Firstly we have say our host Didia was delightful. Her welcome was truely original, she played a record on the 200 year old wind up gramophone that was placed in the large entrance hall. There was a photograph on the wall of the original owner. The accommodation was a beautifully renovated farm house. The rooms were furnished inkeeping with the period of the farm house. The service and cleanliness could not be improved on. The local area was farming with a village nearby. The breakfasts were delicious, we had dinner one evening that was a traditional Portuguese meal, scrumptious. We would recommend this accommodation without hesitation.

Lugnt boende med en fantastisk värd
Fantastiskt boende i lugnt läge. Både inomhus och utomhus en underbar miljö att vistas i. Fräscht rum med balkong och badrum. Jättegod frukost med yoghurt, frukt, ägg, nybakade bullar och kakor. Bäst av allt var det vänliga bemötandet från värdinnan

Sejour tres agréable
Séjour de 3 j tres agréable dans un village du Douro. Hôtesse tres accueillante et toujours souriante qui crée une ambiance conviviale. Avons apprécié la piscine vu la météo tres tres chaude de ce mois d'aout. Le restaurant local est tres bien.Chambre super. Petit dej top. Gateaux maison.Selon le GPS utilisé cela peut etre difficile de trouver mais ca vaut le coup.

Leuke casa maar niet zo proper onderhouden
Mooie casa op leuke locatie Gastvrouw vriendelijk en geeft info over de omgeving, vertelt de geschiedenis van de casa, we werden ontvangen met een lekker glaasje port Lekker ontbijt. Geen restaurant aanwezig in casa zoals vermeld staat in beschrijving Kamer werd niet geproetst, geen bedden gemaakt tijdens ons verblijf (2 nachten) Kamer heeft een leuk balkon echter zonder stoelen. Ontbijt was laat. Vanaf 9u. Als je daarna naar een dorpje of stad wil kom je daar op de middag aan en is alles dicht Zwembad was niet proper, veel vuil en insecten op de bodem Stoelen rond zwembad : kussens waren niet proper. Tuin rond zwembad zeer slordig

Schön und familiär
Die Besitzerin, Didi führt das Haus mit Hilfe ihrer Familie. Es handelt sich um eine renovierte Quinta mit nur fünf Zimmern. Sehr herzliche und familiäre Atmosphäre, die Mahlzeiten, man kann auch hausgemachte Mahlzeit zum Abend bestellen, werden mit anderen Gästen und dem einen oder anderen Familienmitglied am einen Tisch eingenommen. Zimmer sauber und geräumig, etwas sparsam eingerichtet, es stehen aber gemeinsame Bereiche zur Verfügung. Sehr schöne Gegend, allerdings wegen recht komplizierten Fahrwegen bedingt als Ausgangspunkt für weitere Autoausflüge geeignet. Gutes WLAN. Schwimmbecken vorhanden, auch für Familien mit Kindern zu empfehlen.

Séjour de 4 nuits en juillet. La Quinta est magnifique et très bien entretenue. Le déjeuner est varié et délicieux. L'accueil est chaleureux et sympathique. La maison et les chambres sont très propres. Du terrain, de notre chambre et de la piscine on a une vue imprenable sur les montagnes.

Excellent endroit dans la vallée du Douro
Les propriétaires sont très attentifs à nos demandes et se donnent comme mission que vous vous sentiez de la famille. L'endroit est très paisible et magnifique. Un peu à l'extérieur des zones plus touristiques cela permet de voir la vie des Portuguais qui vivent dans cette magnifique vallée.
