Do not want to leave again ;-)
Already when you drive through the gate to 1720 Qienta da Cancela you feel very welcome and then it is only the beginning. Then you meet the owner of the place, Arthur and his lovely family, and then you fall in love with the authenticity and joy that is in all the places on the family's soon 300-year-old vineyard. Arthur is a great communicator, he does everything to make your stay not just only a pit stop on a holiday trip, but that the stay itself becomes unique and one to remember. Besides the completely natural hospitality, the few rooms are completely unique and a wonderful mix between old and new. The breakfast is another lovely chapter in itself. The pool and the outside areas a third wonderful one. Only complaint is that you will not want to travel further afterwards. We will definitely come again. We have been infected :-)
