The Quinta has existed since the 18th century. Originally called Quinta do Barreiro, it came to be known by its current name in 1952, and its main activity is the production of vinho verde.

It is located in an agricultural area, in the village of Telhado, Vila Nova de Famalicão. This municipality, with around 140,000 inhabitants, is strategically located between the cities of Braga, Guimarães and Porto, which are considered World Heritage Sites.

With a vast agro-forestry area, the quinta consists of several granite buildings, typical of the Minho region, a forest area populated by chestnut trees, eucalyptus, maritime pines and Portuguese oaks, as well as prime land for producing Vinho Verde and planting blueberries.

Set in a privileged location in the north of the country, in 2015 the farm was transformed into a blueberry growing area. The crop was chosen because it is booming, even though its consumption has not yet taken root in Portuguese culture.

Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport is a 34-minute drive from the property.

This property is with personal check-in, and you will be requested to verify your identity before checking into the property.

There is a zero-tolerance policy for smoking on the property. If our team discovers evidence that this rule has been breached (e.g., smoke smell, ashes, butts, etc.), we fully reserve the right to charge a €200 smoking fee at minimum.

Please note that for stays longer than 30 nights, a fair use policy of the utilities will apply with a limit of 80€.

Extra cleaning with linen: the price of a cleaning fee.
Extra Clothing: 30€ (Towels and sheets for 2pax, i.e. when the sofa bed is not included).

Check-in will be done at the reception until 10 PM. However, we do allow check-ins until 24:00 upon request and subject to approval. The check-out time is until 12:00 PM. Requests outside of these hours are kindly encouraged.

- Please note that reception services are unavailable after 18:30 on holidays and weekends. For check-in arrangements, please contact us directly to schedule your arrival.
