Vale Benfeito : locations de vacances

We had a fabulous stay in the Douro Valley. Jesse’s home was perfect for us. The heaters worked beautifully and we even lit a fire on the cold evenings. The views were like a dream. The driveway was a little intimidating the first few times, but we got used to it pretty quickly. We decided to drive up about 1/4 mile and turn around in a parking lot instead of trying to do a 3 point turn on the street. Once we figured that out, we were fine!

Delia es uns anfitriona excelente, tanto por su amabilidad, indicaciones, etc y por supuesto también por el alojamiento. Todo lo calificaría de 10. Un ☆☆☆☆☆ sin duda. Gracias

Merci à Antonio et son épouse pour ce séjour. Ils ont été très gentils et réactifs en cas d’interrogation. Logement au calme et climatisé ce qui est très agréable. Ils ont été discrets et nous ont laissé profite de la piscine avec notre fille

Excelente experiência. Excelente anfitriã. Excelente receção. Alojamento super limpo e cuidado e com todas as comodidades. Piscina com excelente localização e condições. Recomendo! Gratidão por todo o apoio e disponibilidade.

Casa perfeita para um fim de semana em amigos/familia. Sem dúvida alguma a melhor host que já tivemos. Tudo perfeito do início ao fim, desde a flexibilidade, as recomendações, as respostas rápidas e todo o apoio prestado. Uma palavra também para a Maria, que cozinhou para nós com muita qualidade e um serviço muito próximo. Sentimo-nos literalmente em casa.

Enjoyed a peaceful stay in Esphinhosa. The house is very inviting with plenty of room. Views are amazing with the vineyards across the lane. Virtually no traffic since it is the 2nd last place on the road. A leisurely 5-minute stroll to the little hamlet of Esphinhosa. There's a very small coffee bar & grocery store in town. It has the very basics to get you through. If you plan to make your own meals in the well-equipped kitchen, remember to purchase your groceries on the way. For large luggage, you will want to access the 2nd floor from the back door up the hill rather than using the spiral stairs. Also, Google Maps took us straight through Espinhosa. To squeeze through the houses where R.Direita meets R.dos Valados, we had to fold up the mirrors on our Dacia Duster with likely only 1/2" to spare on either side. Make sure to use Rua Cimo do Povo and follow the signs for Valado Houses. Good local food at Restaurante Pesqueirense in São João da Pesqueir.

To stay at Ricardo’s house is a one of a kind experience. The house is in the middle of an old wine yard. You can walk for hours on the terrain, which has multiple levels of wine ranks. Private waterfall and forest. There are some donkeys, they are the natural lawn mowers. We were there in February, which means cold nights. A big pile of wood in the shed next door, which you can use the burn in the wood stove to stay warm or the inside BBQ. (In summertime it is prohibited by the state to BBQ outside due the risk of forest fire) Douro valley is beautiful, you’ll need some driving experience though (we ended up on the narrowest en steepest roads, in thick fog, big thrill!) Coffee house around the corner, restaurants close by and even a Go Kart track at 4km. I could tell way more, but I won’t. This is a must see and a highly recommended stay.

Excelente. Gostamos imenso. os anfitriões foram incríveis.
