Letter to Juliet
Reviewed By Tourist762819Letter to Juliet Like many films set in Italy,the roads leading up to the "villa" are beautiful and amongst well tended vines. So with flights booked for Porto when I saw the pictures for Quinta da Barroca though not Italy I was taken. A drive from Porto airport brought us to the vineyards of the Douro and as we later discovered apples,pears,cherries and more. The Apple pickers were in action, so many different types I know where my thoughts will be when I buy Gala apples in Tesco, Waitrose, Check in wasn't easy as no record of our RCI booking was held, but a reassuring Debra and we waited. All was well ,the head office confirmed the booking and we booked in and headed for Pinot Noir. A lovely room with the magical curtain that divided the bed from Bath. The bed is very comfortable, shower very powerful and the temperature good after the first morning. The site boasts, indoor pool opposite Pinot Noir, outdoor pool, tennis court table tennis, table football and pool table set in the beautiful vineyards. Bikes and scooters provided. 4 lovely walks of varying length. We booked for evening meals each evening. A set menu with a choice of a main from two plus vegetarian and presumably you could ask for the children's option. This has been an excellent choice so far with a different course each night that has broadened my food vocabulary, lovely local cuisine never realised broad beans could be so tasty. We paid 10euro for the house wine which is from their own grapes and we're not disappointed, we are not wine buffs. People make the world and here it is just the same. There Were so many smiles and great service from the staff in reception, restaurant( Alex,Frederick and others), breakfast room( lovely eye smiles from the staff ) . I wish I knew the names to mention such great service. The restaurant staff were top adverts for the area with great recommendation for Lamego with it's castle, cathedral and lovely laid back atmosphere. Peso da Régua with it's lovely town,riverside walk and a pedestrian bridge over the Douro. The journey to Pinhao was wonderful, particularly alongside the river Douro,the town and walks along the rivers don't disappoint. I suspect the train journey to Pinhao is even better. I am enjoying the holiday so much, already looking for something similar . So the end of our tranquil stay at Quinta da Barroca, comes to an end, a big thank you to the staff for making our stay happy, thank you for the wonderful facilities,food and sharing your lovely estate.
2. Vila Gale Douro Vineyards
Overall Ratings
4 based on 68 reviews
With a breathtaking view over the Douro River and the Tedo River, it is in the heart of the Douro Wine Region that the Vila Gale Douro Vineyards is set. With a strong component of agro and wine tourism, this unit extends across the centuries-old Val Moreira Estate. Featuring only seven rooms in a first phase, Vila Gale Douro Vineyards stands out for its location, charm and exclusivity.
The secrets of the Hotel - they tell you nothing....accept by app.
Reviewed By Mr_and_Mrs_and_SonWhat is good: The view, the cleanliness, the cocktails, the pool; What is Medium: The mattress, (average but OK) pillows (too high and very hot - two pillows each should be different thicknesses). The rooms - lovely now while new, but I can see they will suffer from wear and tear within months. The shower room walls are made of plaster board and the toilet and shower are either side of the basin unit. The toilet door, like the shower door, is open at the top so any bad smells from the former can be shared in the bedroom. The breakfast - OK, but no jam. Had to ask for black tea bags. Would be nice if the drinks were served, particularly for the less mobile. What is bad: The winding road up to the rooms (goes on for km’s) with sharp bends. The signs. Tiny brown, with symbols that can’t be seen/understood easily if you drive by or in the dark. How do you know that a plate/knife/fork picture is also the Hotel Bar? The steps, oh boy the steps, there must be 1000’s. Some of which are not the normal maximum height of 18cm, but at least 20cm or more. My knees know. And the lovely granite "calçada" paving has occasional missing stones or loose stones which are serious trip hazards. No wheel chairs possible at this establishment and anyone who is unsteady or uses a walking stick is at great risk of tripping or falling. The Food/Bar area: Was soulless - like a posh school dining hall (but with a great view). NO information in rooms: - just referring you to an app. if you can’t or don’t want to use this app then the communication of everything - meals, menus, where is the bar, towels for the pool you have to dial 9 to ask. Who wants to ask "What are you facilities?" I HATE using the phone. You might only get to find out what you missed when you LEAVE… if you are lucky. There are instructions near the pool not to use the room towels - I happened to find a "pool towel" left by another guest on a sun bed - but no information that they were available and where to get them from. I don’t imagine that the app tells you any of this either.
3. Outros Tempos - Turismo de Aldeia
Overall Ratings
5 based on 113 reviews
Outros Tempos – Village Tourism, in the heart of the Douro region, provides you an excellent choice of accommodation in a room or in independent houses of 1, 2 or 3 rooms. It is an unique opportunity to enjoy a real slice of portuguese life and culture. It's like a return to the past, a visit to our family, our grandparents, with warm host, embodiment of the recognized and praised Portuguese hospitality. The houses of granite and traditional architecture are like a "kind of museum", enabling a quiet and relaxing experience.
Hospitality is their name
Reviewed By makala-mistralWe spent 3 days/night in august 2021 at Outros Tempos. I had read very good reviews and they were no lies: we had a wonderful time in this bed-and-breakfast. The hospitality of our hosts is -very- difficult to beat. We were warmly welcomed the evening we arrived by Amilcar who showed us our room and by his wife who offered us a glass of port wine and cakes. We were pampered every morning with a gorgious breakfast: up to five different home-made cakes (baked early in the morning by our hostess) and more than 10 home-made marmelades were waiting for the guests. The room we had was spacious, with very good commodities in the bath-room and warm, old, cosy furnitures that bring you back at your grans-parents house. A not-to-be-missed place! Un grand merci, muito obrigada, a big thanks to our hosts!

very good experience
Reviewed By luisr_12We spent only one night here and we wish we had stayed a few more days. We liked the experience, the safety (of being in the middle of nowhere), the stars at night, and the estate. Staff was very friendly though the guy who welcomed us was a bit confusing (not an issue but a bit unclear on which pool we could use, where the breakfast take place, etc..). In fact, there was no airco in the room but was not hot during the night. The room was generally comfy and breakfast was excellent. The main pool had a small bar with reasonable prices, we liked that and we didn't expect. The streets to get to the property are a bit tricky so we recommend arrival before dark to avoid getting lost. It's OK to drive at dark just be careful if you have a large car. Needless to say, if you don't have a car, it may be tricky to get around, specially to get to nearby restaurants.

Little Paradise
Reviewed By 81elsdWe stayed for 3 nights in Quinta da Portelo during our trip through Portugal and we litterally loved every minute of it. Our garden suite had its own private and lovely garden. The suite itself is spacious, modern and comfortable. There is a nice pool with a stunning view over the Douro valley. But the most exceptional was the service and friendliness of Ricardo , his mother and his uncle. They did everything they could to make us feel welcome and to make our stay an unforgettable experience. The breakfast is delicious with fresh fruits and juices, the best bread and pastries, eggs prepared as you wish, cheeses and meats... just name it and it was served on the terrace overlooking the vineyards. The location is ideal for visiting and enjoying the do beautiful Douro valley .

We loved it
Reviewed By Jeffrey TAbsolutely agree with the previous review very friendly owners Luis and Zulmira were terrific hosts who when we arrived and asked where we could eat Zulmira even offered to make a meal for us which we declined and drove to a restaurant in Armamar. We also did not mind the hard beds and the room was a nice size with a small balcony and the shower was hot. Yes it is out of the way but well worth a stay, and thank you Luis for the bowlful of home grown cherries.
