We stayed at the winery for two nights - although I wish we had added another night or two. The house and grounds are intimate - think less huge winery with tasting rooms, bottling facilities and warehouses and more small, quaint, family run operation. In fact the owner and his family live at the winery and share many of the same spaces you do - although it's never a distraction. Everyone is super nice and the rooms and grounds are amazing. The pool is beautiful - it' easy to lose an afternoon sitting around it under an umbrella drinking a bottle or two of rose from the winery. The morning breakfast provided by the winery is great - lots of options and a nice way to begin your day. Arthur the owner is ever present, checking on you and making sure all is well. He is a great resource for restaurant suggestions and general things to do in the area. A great place to stay, minutes from Braga and a short drive to Porto.

We enjoyed the ambience and learning lots about running a winery from Arthur. He’s passionate both about producing wine and providing a hospitable setting for guests.

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 :-)
