Traumhaft schön
Wir haben ein paar wunderschöne Tage im insgesamt sehr gepflegten und geschmackvoll eingerichteten Haus verbracht. Alles ist so angelegt, dass es einem an nichts fehlt und man sich wohlfühlen muss. Von den Besitzern sind wir freundlich und warmherzig empfangen worden. Sie waren jederzeit ansprechbar und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir bedanken uns ganz herzlich und werden, wenn wir erneut in Protugal Urlaub machen möchten, wieder dort wohnen wollen.Großes Kompliment!

Maison rustique mais confortable et très agréable dans un environnement exceptionnel .
Une maison agréable et confortable dans un environnement exceptionnel (dans un domaine familial et un vignoble. ) Situé à 50 minutes en train du centre de Porto avec un excellent service 2.60 Eu, par passage. C'est un excellent endroit pour visiter Porto et la région du Douro et le nord du Portugal. Après une journée d'excursion, il faisait bon de revenir à la maison, de relaxer sur la terrasse et de se faire un bon repas. Roch, Montréal, Nous étions deux couples de "senior"

Beautiful house
Lovely house which has been beautifully furnished. We had a wonderful time and particularly enjoyed the 'secret' swimming pool in the grounds. The hosts were brilliant too - really helpful and also provided a welcome basket of fruit and veg which was really tasty and very much appreciated. Would stay again.

Great villa in an idyllic location
Villa was clean and well decorated. Kitchen equipment was a little basic but we managed OK. Quirky shared pool at the top of a pool was very refreshing in the heat. Overall we had a great week and would recommend this property.

Romantic house in a private location, well equipped and a marvelous pool
The house is located in a vineyard on a little hill with a beautiful view over the village, no car or walker near the house, so it's really a private location. The very friendly owners are a very short walk away. (Thanks for the fruits and vegetables, the fascinating tour through your historic estate as well as the delicious "Happy Hour" meal!) The pool is a great place to relax and swim, and is a sight worth seeing in itself right at the historic cross. The place is ideal to reach highlights in the north within 30-45 min, we enjoyed trips to Guimarães, Amarate, Douro Valley and Parque Natural do Alvão. The house is well equipped, including a large shower, and furnished in style. So, it's all there for a great vacation for a family with up to three children or two couples.

Bijzonder huisje op prachtige locatie
We hebben genoten op deze bijzondere plek. Bij aankomst wordt de bagage met een quad naar het huisje gebracht en na een kleine wandeling (300m) kom je uit bij het huisje dat midden op de druivenboerderij ligt. Het is een goede uitvalbasis om de omgeving te verkennen. Eigenaren zijn vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Met de tips uit hun eigen reisgidsje krijg je genoeg inspiratie om de vakantie in te vullen. Huisje is van alle gemakken voorzien en zeer comfortabele bedden. Enige wat we gemist hebben is een lekkere stoel om in de tuin te lezen en tafel om een hapje te eten in de tuin. Huisje is prachtig ingericht, maar de tuin is minimaal. Al heb je met zo'n uitzicht niet veel nodig!

Une belle maison très bien située
Nous avons passé une très agréable semaine dans cette belle maison rose située au milieu des vignes avec une vue dégagée sur la campagne environnante. C'était un enchantement, de passer sous la tonnelle où grimpe la vigne, accompagnés par le parfum des rosiers, de la glycine et du jasmin. La promenade vers la piscine située en haut d'une colline arborée nous a beaucoup plus. La maison est décorée avec beaucoup de goût, les pièces sont grandes et lumineuses, la terrasse accueillante. Le poèle à bois, pour les soirées plus fraîches, a été bienvenu et a contribué à créer une ambiance douillette. À proximité de la vallée du Douro, des villes touristiques Porto Amarante, Guimaraes, Braga..., elle est très bien située pour découvrir la région. Merci à Gonçalo pour son accueil chaleureux et sa serviabilité. Nous avons apprécié les gentilles attentions: spécialités de la région, vin, fromage, confiture, fruits... Le guide touristique envoyé avant notre départ et les informations qu'ils nous a données sur place nous ont été très utiles.

Un séjour unique et inoubliable
Trois semaines de découverte du Nord du Portugal. Un gîte situé dans un endroit plein de charme au milieu des vignes. La propriété s'inscrit dans la tradition des Casa qui mêle vignes et jardin romantique. La montée vers la piscine au sommet d'une colline arborée est un enchantement! La gentillesse des propriétaires commence dès l'accueil et ponctue le séjour pour nous donner envie de revenir...

Cosy house in great location with friendly owners
(see below for english) Der ideale Ort für einen entspannten Urlaub in Nordportugal. Porto ist schnell zu erreichen (mit PKW oder Regionalzug in ca. 45min). Weitere sehenswerte Orte im Umkreis von einer PKW-Stunde. Das Haus ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet. Begrüßt wurden wir mit frischem Obst (Maracuja!) , Gemüse, Wein, Käse, Oliven und selbstgemachter Marmelade. Rund um das Haus erstrecken sich Weinfelder und ein kleiner, bewaldeter Hügel mit Pool. Insgesamt super zum "Herunterkommen" und um Sonne und Ruhe zu genießen. Perfect location to relax, very warm welcome with fresh fruits, vegetables, homemade marmelade and wine. The house is surrounded by wineyards and a little wooded hill with a pool on top is nearby. Porto and other interesting cities can be reached by car or local train in less than one hour. We definitely recommend this place! Thanks to Benedita and Paulo for the nice stay.

A gem! A unique delight!
I stayed here with a friend for a week in April 2014. It’s taken me too long to write a review and I can only add to the chorus of other positive comments. The hosts are warm, welcoming, generous and helpful. They piloted us from Penafiel to the location since we needed help. We were surprised when we followed them into the courtyard of the estate - this is it? We stay here???? More surprises and delights followed as we walked through the vineyards to the pink cottage of our dreams. So tastefully decorated and so generously provided - for Canadians, lemons from a local orchard are something very special! We didn’t just feel comfortable but cared for too. Don’t forget to explore the woods and the Magic Mountain - climb to the cross and the pool and find artifacts and treasures along the way. You can easily make day trips to Porto on the train from Meinedo and you are within reach of other worthy destinations - Amarante and Guimaraes. Our stay here has become a high point in a lifetime of travel experiences. We hope to return one day soon. Just book it!

Le charme et le calme
Petite maison au milieu des vignes, arrangée avec goût par des propriétaires très accueillant et discret. Paniers de fruits et légumes à notre arrivée, très gentille attention. Très bien situé pour visiter le nord du Portugal, de Porto à Viano do Castelo en passant par Amarante.

Quelle merveilleuse semaine nous avons passé avec nos deux enfants de 9 ans dans cette région magnifique et dans cette charmante petite maisonnette. Nous retiendrons particulièrement l'accueil chaleureux des propriétaires, les paniers de fruits et légumes frais généreusement laisses à notre attention, la vue magnifique sur la vallée, le vino verde, les allées ombragees pour se rendre jusqu'à la maison et le chien Oliver !!! Merci pour tout. Famille L'Heureux - Quebec- Canada

Le bonheur est dans ....les vignes
Une jolie petite "maison rose" au milieu des vignes très joliment décorée et très bien aménagée. Un endroit plein de charme avec une piscine tout en haut d'une colline au milieu d'un parc ombragé. Benedita et Paulo, des hôtes à la fois discrets , bienveillants et d'une gentillesse vraiment touchante.. Voilà la recette d'un bon moment de vie à apprécier sans modération ! Surtout ne le dites à personne.....

A special place
We were happily surprised by the warm welcome we received from proprietors. The house is beautifully situated in the middle of a vineyard, well equiped and tasefully decorated. Good beds. Bustelo near Penafiel is located in the beautiful vinho verde region between Porto, Guimarães and Amarante, cities worth a visit. You can easily travel to the centre of Porto by train. We have enjoyed our stay very much and we hope to return to this beautiful place.

Una experiencia maravillosa
Mi estancia en Casa Cabanelas ha sido una experiencia en todos los sentidos.La casa con un gusto exquisito, cuidando siempre los pequeños detalles, los propietarios preocupándose en todo momento de tus necesidades y haciéndote la estancia muy agradable. El entorno de la casa tranquilo y rodeado de viñedos es ideal para recorrer la zona. Animo a la gente que quiera conocer la casa, pues creo que les encantará. Benedita, Paulo, yo espero volver para disfrutar otra vez de la casa y de vosotros.
