The house has a capacity of 18+ people, with 7 double rooms, several spacious living rooms, a large kitchen that is fully equipped and can easily accommodate 18 people. The centennial house has been recently remodeled, so you will be able to enjoy the beautiful characteristic architecture and also feel the comfort of modern houses (central heating, spacious bedrooms with private bathrooms). You will also enjoy the 40000 square meters of lands and beautiful gardens: you will be amazed by the enormous variety of plants, trees and flowers of the gardens, and take pleasure of the surrounding mountains and the stream that flows at the end of the property. The house is located in the small village of Perre, only 7 km away from Viana do Castelo, one of the most beautiful cities of Portugal, with a lot of history and culture to offer. The high quality Atlantic Beaches are only 8 km away. The Region: Alto Minho has an enormous array of choices to offer you: amazing beaches, golf, tennis, swimming pools, spas, an extraordinary gastronomy, a very animated ambiance, fishing and hunting, water sports, trekking, historic villages, monuments, gardens, tourist circuits and a very contagious folk culture. Come to discover the Province of the Minho, land of wine and folklore. And also, of castles, monasteries and churches that speaks of history, of villages full of monuments. Come to find Viana Castelo and the Lima River. Come to live the joy of the colourful popular parties. The Farm: Originally built in 1892, Bento Novo was recently renovated to more comfortably accommodate our guests, but the beautiful characteristics of its buildings have been preserved. The contrast of schist and granite that can be found throughout the property emphasizes the harmony that exists between what nature has provided and man has embellished. Bento Novo’s relaxing quiet atmosphere almost makes you forget how close you are to all the action that is happening in the surrounding area. So if you are looking for a relaxing get away or want to come and discover the Alto-Minho region’s rich natural and historical heritage and experience its sea side attractions, we hope you will make us a part of your unforgettable vacation. ## Property amenities ### Beach -

The real bonus for us was all the fresh fruit picked from the garden every day - oranges, lemons, figs and plums were the most bountiful. The pool was appreciated for cooling down on some of the hottest days and the sound of running water lulled people to sleep as they relaxed after lunch. We enjoyed trips to the local towns, long walks and wild swimming. The host was helpful and easy to contact. ##### Dawn W. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne Louise P. Jul 30, 2018 #### Wonderful stay for a big family group We were a big family group of 23 persons from 1 to 70 years of age. There were plenty of bathrooms - the grown ups had seperate rooms, and the teenagers shared their rooms but it worked well. It is a very charming house with lots of space especially outside. The garden is quite exceptionel, very extensive, romantic with a mazelike character, fruittrees, football ground and two stonepools, which everybody loved for refreshing or playing. We had all our meals outside under a roof or on the big terrasse in the open. Paolo was very helpful with everything, and we had very good breakfast with freshly pressed orangejuice etc served every day. Dinner was an option too. It is highly recomendable for a big group with a lot of different activities. Of course you have to keep a very vigilant eye on a small child regarding one of the pools that is rather easily accessible. ##### Anne Louise P. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A fabulous family holiday We have a large family consisting of married couples and some with children and so we offered it is an open house to arrive and depart when you want over the three weeks that we hired the property in August and it did not disappoint. A 50 minute taxi ride from Porto we spent the first two weeks just using Ubers to get into Viana which is about a 10 minute drive away and the amazing beaches which straddle each side of the town, the final week we did hire a car. The property is immense with beautiful shaded areas to relax and read in and fruit orchards , our Grandsons especially enjoyed picking the oranges and making orange juice , it even has a mini football pitch . The kitchen is really well stocked and we loved cooking most nights and BBQ the amazing range of fresh fish you will find in the local supermarkets. My treat every morning was walking over to the local village which took just over 20 mins and buying the freshest breads and cakes as well as enjoying a fab coffee. The swimming pool was great fun and is not deep so really safe for young children and is fed by a complex of fresh waterpipes and features. Bedrooms are basic as you would expect in a old stone built house but everything was clean and working , I even had my own office to do some work I needed to do. The owner Paulo spoke great English and was really helpful with anything we needed , to sum up we had an amazing family holiday in an undiscovered part of Europe. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 21 nights in Aug 2024 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### hester a.

La casa es preciosa, cuidada al máximo. Estaba muy limpia. Habitaciones y baños amplios. Las salitas de estar , tiene varias, te permiten independencia si necesitas trabajar o un rato de tranquilidad. El jardín es enorme, con una variedad de plantas, flores, y árboles increíble. Es ideal para pasear, jugar al escondite o relajarte en un banco. La "piscina" es un pilón, poco profundo, ideal si vas con niños pequeños y los grandes para nadar un poquito y jugar con los niños. Paulo, el dueño, siempre atento y amable a todo lo que solicitamos. Ha sido un placer y muy fácil tratar con él. Clara, muy amable, simpática y servicial con todo lo requerido.

We traveled with 6 other couples (and one 12 year old and one 5 month old). The house was perfectly laid out for us and everyone loved exploring the gardens and orchards. We had tomatoes, peppers, greens, citrus fruits, grapes, and more to eat from the property every day. The kitchen was perfect for us to all gather while some cooked and others visited. And the morning light at the front of the house made a wonderful spot for us to have coffee on the stone terrace. The house is very well located for getting to many nearby villages (Barcelos, Viana do Castelo, Ponte de Lima, Porto). We were also able to do a day tour to the Douro Valley and a day trip to Northern Spain). The host, Paulo, and housekeeper, Lourdes, were both lovely and attended to everything we needed. We are very happy we stayed at Quinta Bento Novo. ##### Sarah S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roberto G.

The website pictures don't do this property justice as you can't see the reality of the magnificent gardens, hear the sound of constantly running water as the troughs and pools get filled up and see the textures of a massive variety of trees and flowers. It has a secret, other wordly quality that's difficult to describe and every age group there loved it. The house is well equipped and the beds comfortable and Paulo did all he could to accommodate our needs. The cleaners were great and also constantly maintaining the grounds. It's in a great location too, very close to a sandy and safe beach on the edge of Viano de Castello and within walking distance of hikes. We would definitely book this place again and were very sad to leave. ##### Alexandra S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David W.

Very few tourists in the area but the local people were friendly. We would certainly consider going back as everyone in the party loved the place. ##### David W.

Espaciosa con 7 habitaciones, una cocina enorme, varios salones, amplios espacios interiores y exteriores. Perfecto para nuestra grande familia. Además, súper limpia, jardines fenomenales. La recomendamos al 100x100. Su propietario atento en todo momento, amable al máximo. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### carolyn l. Aug 11, 2018 #### Beautiful house in amazing gardens This is the perfect house for a large group as every bedroom has a bathroom and lots of separate seating and sleeping areas so great for several families holidaying together. Large well equipped kitchen and barbecue with wood provided. The spring fed swimming pool is cold but refreshing . There were areas for kids to play football or cricket. Lovely areas to sit out and eat in the evening and Bats and nightjars flying around at night. Well stocked local supermarket. The owner Paulo lives locally and is only a text away to ask about any local advice and sorted any minor problems straight away. ##### carolyn l. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tom L.

Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heike B. Jul 28, 2018 #### Zwei wunderbare Wochen in Perre Wer historische Anwesen in traumhafter ländlicher Umgebung mag, ist hier genau richtig. Die Quinta ist großzügig, wir hatten reichlich Platz für 15 Personen (drei Familien), und jedes Zimmer hatte sein eigenes Bad. Der Garten ist riesig und toll angelegt mit vielen interessanten Bäumen. Unsere Kinder freuten sich über den Fußballplatz und den erfrischenden Steintrog, in dem man tatsächlich baden kann. Wir hatten Frühstück gebucht, welches täglich von einer netten Dame vorbereitet wurde, incl. frisch gepresstem Orangensaft. Die Küche war so ausgestattet, dass wir gut für alle kochen konnten. Der Besitzer, Paulo, ist einer der nettesten Gastgeber, die wir jemals erlebt haben. Er ist für alle Fragen und Anregungen offen und auch vor der Reise klappte die Kommunikation wunderbar, danke nochmal für alles! Um an die tollen (relativ leeren!) Atlantikstrände und andere Ziele in der Umgebung zu gelangen, empfehlen wir auf jeden Fall einen Mietwagen. ##### Heike B.
