Vale
The room that faces the vines. Double bed, a narrow east-facing balcony, and the sun arriving around seven.
A family quinta above Provesende, twenty minutes from Pinhão. Book with us and no platform takes a cut. Breakfast is at eight, on the long balcony.
My grandfather made wine here. When the winery closed the house stood empty for fourteen years, and then we spent six putting it back together without taking away what it was: the schist stayed exposed, the press stayed where it was, and the roof is the same one with new tiles.
We are not a hotel. We are six rooms, two people looking after them, and a booking book that belongs to us. That is why you get to talk to us instead of to a support centre.
The room that faces the vines. Double bed, a narrow east-facing balcony, and the sun arriving around seven.
Schist walls from the original house, cool in August without air conditioning. Its own entrance from the courtyard.
The whole tower, with an internal stair and a second bedroom above. This is where families stay, and anyone here for a week.
No availability request, no waiting for a reply, no platform commission. Free cancellation up to seven days before.
One table, at eight, with whoever is here that night. Manuela cooks. She is from Provesende and does not enjoy questions about the recipe.
A4 to Vila Real, then the N322 along the valley. There is room for four cars in the courtyard.
The Douro line to Pinhão. We will collect you from the station if you tell us the day before.
Check-in from 15:00, check-out by 11:00. Late arrivals if you arrange it beforehand.
