Monthly Rentals in Fontelas

Joaquim is wonderful… so gracious and helpful. Upon our arrival, he showed us the details of the apartment and pointed out the homemade cookies and puddings his mother has made for us! He also offered us excellent wine, port, coffee, tea and more. We instantly felt right at home. The apartment is fabulous and perfectly located for fun in the Douro Valley. We drove to Pinhao stopping to taste different wines and ports along the way. We also took a long hike through the vineyards to a town at the top of a hill with fabulous views. We were blessed with perfect weather during our one full day there. Douro Valley is stunningly beautiful and Joaquin’s apartment is too!

The accommodation is located in a quiet village in the middle of the upper Douro vineyard and surrounded by vineyards. The only service available in the village is a small association under the Parish Council, which operates part-time (which also harms the privacy of the pool). Despite this there is sales of walking bread. The nearest large commercial areas are in Régua, about 15 minutes away by car. The Hosts were very friendly and provided all the necessary clarifications. Accommodation is great for a family break.

Great time, thank you for a wonderful weekend!

This dreamy stay at the quinta is the perfect place for a quiet and relaxing few days. I recommend doing the wine tasting with them and to take a stroll through the vineyard. The hosts are very friendly and helpful, you feel right at home and they were so nice to provide some breakfast with fresh bread. Would very much recommend!
