Staying at the charming and modern cottage in the vineyard was an absolute delight. Surrounded by serenity and equipped with all amenities including a pool, terrace, and a grill with a breathtaking view, it was truly a haven. The hospitality of the hosts added an extra layer of warmth to the experience, and their thoughtful gesture of a welcome bottle from their own vineyard was much appreciated. It was an unforgettable retreat, and I can't wait to return.

We loved the location in the middle of a vineyard. Breakfast food was in the fridge when we arrived and fresh bread delivered each morning. Picked oranges from the tree in courtyard each day, fresh and delicious. Daniel was wonderful, when google maps got us lost about 5 iminutes from the property, we called Daniel and described where we were, he came in his car to guide us to the property. Spent a morning hiking amongst the vines, terrific views.

Lovely situation in the vineyards, beautiful patio to enjoy the sunset. Well equipped for us. Fresh produce & wine appreciated. If you want to go to the local upper end restaurants best to book in advance.

People from Quinta do Monte Travesso are exceptional hosts. Very friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The Casa da Tilia is a lovely and comfy house to relax and enjoy the calm of the Douro Valley. Wines from the property are delicious, and the tasting + tour is good and instructive as well. We enjoyed the sun, relaxed in the garden and the pool and we left with a feeling of peace and rest.

A genuine quinta wine estate in a rustic Douro setting. Lovely and comfortable accommodation with full amenities including landscaped yard with barbeque and private pool. Staff are very attentive and respectful and even bring fresh bread to your door each morning. Fridge is stocked with eggs, yogurt, cereal, deli meats and sliced cheese for breakfast along with juice and milk. Coffee capsules are also stocked for use in espresso machine. Stunning views from this hilltop quinta located minutes from restaurants and grocery stores in Tabuaco.

The pool could have have a little less chlorine. Nothing else could have been better.

The whole property is just beautifull. So well mainteined and the interior of the room was very cozy and well thought. The private pool & yard for our kid to play was just awesome. And the VIEWS! You just can't get enough of it! We took the wine tour and it was really good, also very tasty wines. Had to buy couple bottles. Staff very friendly, and discreet.

this is a renovated stone building and we travelled when the weather was colder, so we’re glad of the electric heater and used the wood fire each night.

The view and setting on the vineyard are excellent.

The house is private with a fenced garden, perfect for our large dog and was so well stocked with the essentials it easily outlasted our stay, everything you would ever need was provided even a free bottle of wine from the Vineyard. The fresh bread delivery every morning was unexpected. The bed was so comfortable, probably the best bed of our tour of Portugal. The location and the views were just stunning. We plan to go back.

The road in and out was a bit hard to locate initially, and also narrow and winding for a little distance. Of course, when you’re in the middle of a working vineyard, that is to be expected and adds to the overall charm.

The setting was beautiful, overlooking the vineyards with a view of hills and mountains in the distance. The guesthouse was very well appointed and suitably rustic for the location, and the surrounding buildings and features were lovely. We loved it and thank the staff for all the touches they added to our stay!

The only drawback is finding drinkable water. Maybe we missed it? Also, this is just luck of the draw, but people stay in RVs in the parking lot right beside the cottage, which is no bother other than the loud dog that barked all night.

We wanted a quaint but fulfilling getaway in Douro Valley. We spent part of our honeymoon at this property and are thrilled that we did. The views are incredible. The cottage we stayed in had a kitchenette, a living area with a view and a porch that was hard to leave. This stay requires a drive and the closest restaurants are about a 15-minute drive but if you bring a few items for meals, it simplifies the travel. Anywhere you stay in the “mountains,” a remote experience is expected. We loved Edna, who runs the property.

Really comfortable and nicely decorated accommodation with an amazing Douro view. Privacy and extremely friendly staff. Will most definitely come back!

I did not like the proximity of the camper vans outside the gate to the entrance of the cottage, on premise. They sleep with their windows/doors open so it lessens the privacy of what we paid for. One night we had to park away from the front due to so many vans, one directly outside the gate. Also I didn't like them walking in front of our see through gate at night. Another night a camper van guy came out and was not nice to us, telling us to move our car we had just parked so he could fit his camper, even though we paid to stay there. I think with a little distance rules it would be perfect.

The location, the view, the hospitality. Everything was phenomenal.

This place exceeded all expectations! I could wake up in the morning and just walk out onto the patio with an amazing view of the hills and the vineyard. It was so quiet and peaceful. Plus, we had a delicious breakfast every morning with the spread of food they stocked in the fridge, along with plenty of fresh bread.

This location is amazing, we did a tour of the winery, a tasting of wines and their olive oil. The staff were wonderful, friendly, and helpful. The pictures don't do it justice. If you are debating 1 or 2 nights, stay for 2. We were sad to leave and wished we could have extended our stay here. We visited 7 different places in Portugal, and this was my favorite place to stay. Relaxing, beautiful, fun. They provided eggs, ham, cheese, yogurt and fresh bread for us to make our own breakfast. It was wonderful.

nothing bad to say. We were a bit nervous booking a place with no reviews. But we decided to go ahead and book it because the winery itself had great reviews. I’m glad it turned out great!

We had an amazing stay at the Quinta do Monte Travesso house. The place and the views looked even better in person than the pictures. The house was almost brand new, everything super clean. It came well stocked with bread, juice, milk, ham and everything you need to make meals. The owner was very communicative and we were able to schedule wine tasting and meals at the estate.
