Because of its fairly remote location – although it is only about an hour’s drive to Porto – we have always advised guests to hire a car.

Our weekly taxi package / payment in advance : We offer for up to eight guests, with no car hire, a package for week’s taxi hire to cover average main needs for 750 Euros. One of the great benefits of this is that there is no need to worry about how to get to the house, negotiate unfamiliar roads , to enjoy the scenic views and have a relaxed meals . For example: Transfer from and to the Porto / airport . Three trips to a local supermarket / Intermarché / Cinfais . A one day winery tour , 09:30 am up to 06:00 pm 3 trips to local restaurants close the house . Go and return from our local train station Mosteiro .

I stayed with 4 family members and we had a very special 10 days. You need a car to navigate the area, and we often stocked up on goods in Marco de Canaveses. On Francisco's recommendation we travelled to Quinta do Pacheca, which was stunning. Boat trips need to be booked in advance. We enjoyed the beautiful pool and found everything clean and tidy. I hope we can return one day soon. ##### Sarah H. Stayed 10 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donal O.

From all bedrooms, lounge, patio, and swimming pool you have stunning views across the valley and of the river. The house is large, good size rooms. V large pool to relax by and enjoy the vista. We were here with my kids and mostly visited the local area in the mornings and lounged by/in the pool in the afternoons. The host was great with suggestions for trips. Kids loved going around picking lemons and figs. Overall this was a stay to remember and an astoundingly great property. ##### Donal O. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin C.

The Hosts were a delight and we totally loved all the oranges they delivered. The house itself is a centuries old stone home with modern touches. Outside spaces are lovely. It rained so we couldn't take advantage of them as we would have liked. Beds comfortable. Kitchen well appointed and Livingroom comfortable with a lovely fireplace. Will return ##### Kevin C.

Jul 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Paradise The property is quite difficult to get to with a dirt road at the end of the journey (which was made at night giving it an extra difficulty rating). However, the view is spectacular and made lounging by the large pool even more relaxing. The owner speaks English but there was a slight language barrier which dis result in a misunderstanding that marred the stay slightly. There are cafes, restaurants and supermarkets nearby that are very cheap so makes it worthwhile eating out regularly. ##### Cerys H. Stayed 10 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Henry D. May 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Unique accomidation The hosts for this property, Francisco and his wife, were very responsive and accommodating during our visit. The house was originally built in 1680 and Francisco has done basic renovation. The grounds themselves and the scenic views are something special. It is a large property with orange, lemon and olive trees, as well as beautiful flowering plants. We had problems locating the property and cannot thank Francisco enough for his patience in helping us find our way. The age of this house and the difficulty in providing modern heat presents a challenge when weather is cool. We recommended to Franciso that he consider upgrading the heat system when possible. He was gracious in providing firewood for the wonderful fireplace and brought some auxiliary heaters for us to put in the bedroom and bath. ##### Henry D.

If there were a gold medal for Vrbo hosts Francisco and Teresa would be overwhelming favorites. They set a standard we have never experienced in a lifetime of travel. Not only did they help us plan our itinerary they went so far as to meet us at the train station several times to make sure we were heading in the right direction. Their graciousness and hospitality will remain with us forever. And then the property itself. The restoration of a family property since 1680 was stunning. Magnificent views from every window, air so fresh you could sense it, and orchards that supplied us the best orange juice we've ever tasted. The list could go on and on. Of course there was the awe inspiring beauty of the Douro valley. Twisting mountain roads provided photo opportunities at every turn. Day excursions to Porto and Pinhao were also great but the real treat was returning to Quinto do Loureiro each day. If Portugal is on your travel plans hopefully you can refuel at Quinto do Loureiro. It is paradise on earth. Thank you Francisco and Teresa. ##### Dan C. Stayed 5 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roslynn S.

We originally booked for 3 nights but stayed one more (so happy it was available) and I still couldn't bear to leave. Francisco and Teresa are such gracious and welcoming hosts, a beautiful couple, warm and friendly, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome, ensuring that we were well taken care of and that our stay was perfect. My husband and I loved every second and will cherish the memories for a lifetime. Even getting lost (we always do) was an adventure and it was truly difficult to keep my eyes on the road as every turn was a feast for the eyes. We began each morning with the most delicious fresh squeezed orange juice, supplied by Francisco and Teresa form the many orange trees on their property, sipping our way into the day, as we embraced the views and beauty around us. In the evenings, after the peaceful sunsets, we enjoyed dinner by the fireplace and watching the lights come on around the stunning valley. We forced ourselves out a couple of the days to visit wineries and stayed in one to enjoy the gorgeous pool, homemade lemonade, grilling lunch and a great walk around the property. Quinta do Loureiro is breath taking. Francsico and Teresa are the epitome of hosts. We will always carry the memories in our hearts. Thank you Francisco and Teresa. ##### Roslynn S.

Truly allows you to get away from it all but yet keep modern conveniences. Francisco is truly a dear host who will go out of his way to insure your trip to Portugal is the best. Cannot recommend this place enough. We are looking for a return trip next summer! ##### Michelle T. Stayed 13 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna W. Aug 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing stay with amazing views We all enjoyed our stay at this beautiful old farmhouse - the views of the river Douro were fantastic to wake up to every day and the ample pool perfect to cool down in The owner is very helpful and friendly, Francisco can help arrange airport and local transport options and I highly recommend this option over driving yourself! This location is perfect for those looking to relax at the property, and whilst transport can be arranged there is not much in the way of restaurants that are in easy walking distance - stock up at the supermarket and enjoy al fresco meals! A very relaxing stay ##### Anna W. Stayed 9 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Megan J. May 17, 2019 #### Awesome outlook Awesome outlook, Francisco was very easy to work with. We had a great time. Be warned the roads are very windy and steep, hair raising in places. ##### Megan J. Stayed 7 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wayna M., Rochester, NY Oct 4, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Place to Vacation on the Douro Views are stunning, home is comfortable and has everything a family would need, and the history of property is evident everywhere and adds to the enjoyment of the stay. The swimming pool was great fun. The host was extremely accommodating and attentive to every need. We used the transportation arranged by the host - the driver felt like part of the family. Our family of 8 (which included twin boys age 22 months) loved our stay and all adults highly recommend the property. ##### Wayna M. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas L.

It is not the easiest drive to get to the house but well worth it and Francisco met us quickly at the Palo Train station to meet us promptly. Thanks! ##### Thomas L.

The location is a challenge to find but no fear, Francisco will guide you there no matter the time of day. The view from the Quinta is breathtaking and the property is spectacular. The house is fully equipped with everything you need and is charming all around. It was too cold for us to use the pool but we did sit and enjoy some wine and the view of the Douro river. We highly recommend the Quinta do Loureiro, ##### patricia s.
