Quinta de Macedos, located within the UNESCO Port Region, is a family-run vineyard offering luxurious accommodation in a rustic farm setting . The Quinta's secluded position allows guests to experience the wild beauty of Northern Portugal. Guests have exclusive access to the entire property during their stay and wine tastings/winery tours are available on request. We look forward to welcoming you...
The space:
All bedrooms are ensuite with bay windows that look out onto the property. 2 kings and 3 twin/doubles. We provide luxurious linen/towels and all bedrooms come equipped with air conditioning. Should your stay be during winter months we have underfloor heating throughout the property in addition to multiple fireplaces (and an outdoor fire-pit).
Our upstairs living room, or the 'library' as we call it, is the perfect place to retreat on a hot day, or a winters eve. Cosy up with a book by the window or by the log burner. The downstairs lounge has a smart TV, fireplace and a backdoor that leads directly out onto the dining terrace. We do like to keep things ‘old school’ - a DVD player/DVD's are also available for use!
The dining room has a handmade table that seats 10. Our Portuguese style farm-kitchen is fully equipped and has a two-door fridge/freezer & water filter.
15m swimming pool has undisturbed views of the valley and our outdoor dining terrace is one of kind. A sunset BBQ is a must. There is outdoor lighting for all outdoor spaces during the evening.
