The view and the comfort of the accommodation
peace and landscape
Friendliness of Caroline and the owners. The place was exactly what we were looking for, a space in nature that would allow us to relax, be comfortable and the kids could feel free! It was spectacular to be picking the fruits of the season directly from the trees.
Everything was great, nothing to point out! It would only be interesting for those traveling with children to have a more careful vegetable garden and animals.
Excellent location, excellent space
Outside, the pool and swing bed were dirty, which was a pity because we couldn't use it
We lived in the biggest house in the quint. The three bedrooms are comfortably furnished and have a spacious bathroom with shower. There are also several beautiful living and dining areas, so the house can easily accommodate three couples. We were greeted with delicious port wine from the region and every morning they hung buns on the door for free. The huge property includes a fruit, vegetable and herb garden which we were allowed to get out of. The water in the pool is cleaned not with chlorine, but with salt, which is very pleasant for the skin. The kitchen has a fireplace that can be fired up on cold days with wood. The hostess was available both in person and via whatsapp for questions and advice.
Bathrooms could be a little better lit.
very spacious rooms and everything very clean. also all the refinement and courtesies of the accommodation
nothing to point to
We stayed at Casa da Lavoeira 2, a part of Quinta do Olival where there are only two houses and a shared swimming pool. The outside space was well taken care of. We enjoyed having our meals outside, with a very nice view of the mountains. The atmosphere is super calm and relaxing. The house itself was extremely clean and tastefully decorated, which makes it feel very welcoming. The sauna in the bathroom was nice to relax after a walk. Bringing bread every morning is a thoughtful touch that we appreciated. We recommend!
I found the mattress a little uncomfortable (too hard, but that's a subjective matter). The sofa bed in the living room is not super comfortable either, it has a very low back. The pool loungers weren't comfortable either, they deserved to be changed.
A place that makes us feel at home.
Everything is better than expected, we are tired at Lavoreiro's houses and they are lovely with a pool in front. Fresh bread every morning and a crowd of 10!
A slightly larger bed would have been nice. But everything was perfect.
of the house and the landscape

Excellent location, organic vegetable garden, blueberry picking, room (Lavoeira 1), bicycles, swimming pool ..
Mattress a little uncomfortable, bathroom fan made a lot of noise.
Excellent location, quiet and peaceful. Beautiful landscapes around
Everything was perfect.
Tranquility of the zone
The bed can be the weakest point, but overall everything is very good
The setting of the house is fantastic, on a lawn under a grove of oaks. Panoramic views from the bedroom and living room. Outdoor furniture. Pool. Fresh bread in the morning, friendliness of the host. On-site parking in the shade...
Nothing special.
I liked everything from the hospitality to the conditions of the Quinta, everything in impeccable condition, and which I will certainly recommend to anyone who wants to spend a good time relaxing
From the landscape. From the accommodation, from the pool to picking the blueberries, from everyone's friendliness. ..
Very beautiful house, well decorated and equipped with everything you need for a good stay. Well-maintained outdoor spaces and a very good pool. Offer of fresh bread in the morning!
We stayed at the Lavoeira II house, a completely charming space suitable for enjoying days of rest. Extremely clean, modern decor.
I just think that the pool could be cleaner, but nothing that could be considered a bad aspect, as the rest was beyond spectacular
The whole farm is very well taken care of, the rooms are very comfortable. each house has a barbecue area at its disposal. It is very well located, in 10 minutes it is possible to reach the center of Ponte de Lima.
everything was excellent
We didn't have breakfast but we always had fresh bread in the morning at the door.
There is no downside
The environment in which the cabins were located is characterized by a modern design and an exceptional attitude of the staff.
Everything spectacular better impossible I loved it from Dona Olga to Caroline It was wonderful for the 2nd time and there will be many more opportunities 🥰
Very good location. Quiet calm place with lots of nature around the house.
The only constructive criticism would be to place the curtains in such a way as to be able to appreciate the landscape. When they are open, they occupy a large area of the window, which is a pity, both for the view, which cannot be fully appreciated, and for the brightness,
The peace and the comforts of the house. The availability, attention and friendliness of the hostess.
The absence of a bathtub and the sofa in the living room could be comfortable.
All in all, it's fantastic.
Any
We appreciated everything from the extreme cleanliness to the friendliness and location. Divine breakfast.
We liked everything. Nothing negative to point out.
Ambiance, friendliness of staff and impressive facilities

It is our 3rd time at this farm and, as always, we were received with friendliness, availability and even with a little treat that Dona Olga always provides for our arrival. They welcome their guests like few others.
First the friendliness, then we also liked the place itself (the house, the Jacuzzi, everything very clean, the place was very peaceful, it was what we were really looking for to rest, to be a little away from stress). And look, they had a divine welcome liquor there... which was really GOOD 👌🏾 I have to thank you for everything you did for us.. And of course we repeated our trip there 😌
I don't have much to say here, on the contrary, we liked everything.. Mainly the attention and friendliness of the Owners🤗
Peace of mind and care for every detail. The attitude and attention of Olga and her entire family is second to none. Always attentive and ready. Although it is a quiet and secluded place, there are many interesting towns within a few kilometers that are worth visiting. You can not put but.
Very calm environment of great tranquility... We feel at home. 😊
The attention, the little treats, the cleanliness, the space and the surroundings. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking.
There is nothing to indicate.
The Quinta is very beautiful, the Casa dos Avós very well maintained with excellent access to the pool which is very pleasant. Excellent for accommodating 6 people, very functional kitchen, large dining room with a table for 8 people and a bedroom with a small lounge located on the top floor. Downstairs are 2 of the pleasant bedrooms and a beautiful living room with excellent natural light, where the TV, box and router are located.
The dining room (which has no TV and only 2 armchairs) is separated from the living room (with TV) downstairs. The living room has only 1 sofa for 4 people and 2 armchairs, it does not comfortably accommodate 7 people. The smell of a septic tank in the orange toilet in one of the rooms. The "guillotine" windows are very beautiful but you need to be very careful when using them. The exterior needs a cover to shelter from rain or sun.
It exceeded all our expectations. Great
Our stay was excellent. From the offer of welcome drinks on arrival and fresh bread every morning, to the pool, space and surrounding nature, everything was great. We stayed at our grandparents' house and every detail was thought of to provide us with a comfortable and welcoming stay: everything impeccably clean and well decorated; each of the three rooms had a bathroom, TV and its own entrance; very helpful, organized and friendly hosts and staff; we traveled with children, who loved playing in the pool, children's space and animals; and yet another important aspect these days: in the common outdoor spaces, each house had its own outside space, identified and with its own tables and chairs. A fantastic experience (only too brief) and to be repeated!
All! The peace and the houses, the pool,…

We love the concept of the rural farm, with the possibility of picking fruit and vegetables from the garden. The bread provided each morning hung on the door. A swimming pool with generous dimensions. An extremely well equipped and clean house. A well-decorated and cared for space, where typical mountain architecture combines with contemporary decor. It will never be too much to thank Dr. Olga, not forgetting also D. Susana. I recommend it to anyone who wants to spend a few days of absolute tranquility with their family, surrounded by natural beauty.
The pool and surrounding area. The house is very comfortable and well equipped.
Nothing special.
Everything: pool, great view, ultra-comfortable and fully equipped house, great scenery and hiking in the area...
Nothing, everything was perfect. Only small claims can be, points could be more.
I loved the space, the tranquility, the friendliness of everyone. The house is very well equipped, we feel at home. I really liked the gesture of leaving bread every day at the guests' door. I only have good things to say about everything. 😍
Site, calm and friendliness
Maybe a bit crowded for 4 people, but it's such a beautiful and relaxing place that it doesn't matter.
Rural setting, pool, indoor amenities, cleanliness! Breakfast option in baskets with local products is very good! With children there is always something to see, the animals, the swings, the blueberry field, the vegetable garden.
Breakfast was great and adequate in quantity. The location is also good.
Just a remark regarding the bathroom. Perhaps it would be good to think about putting support hangers or a bench to place clothes in it, when we are going to get ready. The light in this space, in front of the mirror, is also weak. Also worth mentioning is the review of the glasses, two of which we found cracked and one of the acrylic chairs is cracked.
Tranquility, friendliness and availability of the owners. Typical Portuguese breakfast, very good. Rustic house, very well recovered, with touches of modernity, which made us feel great comfort.
Our stay was very pleasant. The house is very comfortable even on cold days and is fully equipped with everything we need to cook for longer stays. It was impeccably clean and we were very well received, even being offered port wine, whiskey and green wine. We would love to come back in the summer and enjoy more of the outdoor space. Thank you for everything.

Olga is a very friendly hostess, it was like at home. Unsurpassed care. In the morning she brought us bread and was always attentive. It felt like home, we'll be back soon
We loved our stay, nothing to point out.
The facilities and the friendliness with which we were received
All liked it
Great facilities; we loved the breakfast treat
wifi quality
The house is wonderful. Very comfortable, with the essentials, bright and spacious. Perfect for a couple looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. I was able to visit Soajo, Arcos de Valdevez, Ponte da Barca, Ponte de Lima and Lindoso. Everything very clean, with all amenities and peaceful surroundings. Coming back!
Good location, neat and beautiful area. The host was genuinely friendly and affable during the stay.
A very nice and welcoming place.
I liked everything 5 stars
Nothing to say
Of everything. Very quiet farm, beautiful with fantastic views. We stayed at the grandparents house which is very well decorated and very well equipped. There is a lot of space in it.
nothing ... everything is fine
Everything ... The comfort and decoration of the house, the pool, the landscape, the friendliness of everyone. Very good!
Lavoira's house is beautiful, comfortable, quiet and secluded. We can enjoy both indoors and outdoors, always with a soothing view and the chirping of birds. D. Olga is very responsive and benevolent. I loved picking blueberries for breakfast and lunch.
We liked the care and attention given. Very quiet area, great for relaxing
Dona Olga is very responsive. We were very well received and enjoyed our stay very much.
The lady who received us aroused sympathy. Everything in the ADEGA DO BURACO house was very clean, nothing was missing, on the contrary, we had welcome drinks and fresh fruit from the garden. A destination that I will return to soon and recommend. thank you very much for everything
All 5 *. Nice house, very well equipped, in a good location, very quiet. Great for those traveling with small children.
The kindness and disposition of the owners were incredible, they welcomed us in the best possible way, inviting us to the delicacies of their land. They also provided us with many opportunities to enjoy the surroundings of this wonderful land. Thanks for everything, I highly recommend it.
House with all amenities and D. Olga very friendly and attentive.
What I liked the most was the surprise, because the photos do not convey the house in full. It's really beautiful and the fact that we went in very bad weather, but with good weather and being able to be outside and enjoy the pool, it must be heaven.
On the other hand, you have to be careful with hot water, because if you fill the hydromassage, you will have to wait a long time to use hot water again.
Olga is an excellent hostess, integrated and respectful houses with the environment, rural environment, eco-trails for enjoying nature. 10 points to Quinta do Olival and Olga, who treated us very well.
Nothing at all
In general, excellent stay in a beautiful and calm place.
From the rainy days 😅
Where to start(?)....perhaps due to the extreme friendliness upon arrival during check-in, the surrounding environment - calm and serene -, and the first impression with the house made the beginning of the stay extremely positive. The next day was clearly marked by the fabulous view from the room, which filled us up every morning in an almost addictive way, it was probably one of the most striking points. The Quinta is extremely well decorated, and the rural environment is well defined. The house where we stayed had all the amenities advertised, providing all the necessary comfort. The location is another positive point, as it is very close to the main accesses, as well as the main villages (< 10 minutes from Arcos de Valdevez and Ponte da Barca). In short, the desire to return is great and will certainly happen in the near future. Thanks again for the magnificent experience.
Leaving.
Sympathy, beauty and comfort. And biological treats. On repeat. We liked a lot
The location is fantastic. Everything is easily accessible from Quinta. And the beach in Viana do Castelo, and the cities of Braga, Guimarães, Arc de Valdeves and the natural park of Peneda Geres. The house is very well equipped. Nothing was missing in the kitchen. We preferred the grill. A supermarket can be reached in about 10 minutes by car. It offers fresh produce every day. There is a grill and utensils. The owner Olga is very friendly. She attaches great importance to making guests feel comfortable. There is a vegetable garden and orchard on the property. Everyone can use it as they wish. In the evening the view is just great.
absolutely nothing
The atmosphere was calm, the cabbages, tomatoes and grapes were delicious.
I have nothing to comment on
Everything!
The house and farm are wonderful.
Any.
Everything was absolutely perfect. The house is much more beautiful than in the photos and I think the photos are beautiful. The cleanliness is exceptional... You were very careful and thought through the smallest details. All very comfortable beds and pillows. I went with children 7 and 10 years old and they were delighted. Elegant atmosphere, clean and nice decor. We are in T3 and we have nothing to claim. The hostess is perfect and a person who makes you feel at home. Obliged Olga.
The functionality of the house and pool.
Possibility to cycle through safer places (cars).
Tranquility....comfort...beautiful house and surroundings...great swimming pool. Charming hosts... and they leave you on your own, although always available.
Any
Olga's attention and the location of the house are second to none. This is by far the best hotel/farmhouse I know to this day. Both the house and the details provided by Olga and the geographical location exceeded my expectations. We'll be back with our eyes closed, no doubt.
Any. Everything is perfect.
An old farmhouse, very well restored, equipped to the highest standard, ideal for those seeking peace and tranquility. Very nice exterior and clean pool. Suitable for both families and 2 couples (2 parent suites). A very warm welcome from Olga who speaks good French and very detailed advice on visits with documentation provided. We appreciated the fact that we can pick oranges ourselves at will. An ideal geographical position to visit all of northern Portugal from the coast to the Geres Park. We really liked Sistelo-Hermida-Braga-Viana do Castelo-Ponte de Lima.
Nothing
From the location, the amenities of the house to the friendliness of the owners. Simply perfect
Everything super clean! Very cute and nice!
