MANOR HOUSES - GUESTS COMMENTS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD


D.L. Last November you were kind enough to arrange a short tour of your hotels in Galicia for my wife and I, and we returned from that holiday last night. I should just like to thank you. Everything worked perfectly, the rooms we were allocated were all excellent and we enjoyed every single hotel. Without exception the staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service throughout was exceptional. Thank you once again and we shall certainly be back!
C. Family Thank you for the wonderful welcome and for all the lovely food! We have had a fantastic week here. Casa do Pinhal is so pretty and the garden is very scenic. We enjoyed going to Caminha, Viana do Castelo and Ponte de Lima as well as the beach out Ancora and Afife, What and idyllic oart of the world this is!
G.N. I was looking for a holiday that I would always remember as something special, and was amazed by the fantastic accommodation at Casa do Olival, it is not a villa, it is a beautifully cared for house, that is presented in such immaculate fashion. It was hard to leave the house and its surroundings to travel to the other towns near by. However, the local area did not let us down, and the Minho area proved to be what you would envision “the real” Portugal to be like. Still largely unspoilt by foreign tourism, there are some truly wonderful places to visit. If you are thinking of going to Portugal, do contact the team at Manor Houses of Portugal Promotions before you do anything else, as I cannot recommend them highly enough.
---- We and our family want to tell you how much we enjoyed being at Quinta de Nabais. There were so many things to do for the younger part of the family. Our grandchildren wanted to stay another "million weeks". The garden, with all the flowers, was really a delight for our eyes. We didn't expect the weather to be as fine as it was. We got four days of sunlight and one of the days the temperature was as high as 30 degrees C. Fantastic! We've told a lot of friends about our stay at your beautiful and well-equipped house. Luckily enough we have taken a lot of photos, so we can enjoy Quinta de Nabais over and over again.
C.R. We want to thank you for your prompt and competent service. The service was satisfactory from all points of view. Quinta de Nabais was very nice and we enjoyed very much our time in Portugal.
B.B.
Quinta de Vermil was excellent so we do thank you very much. Have already recommended your services to our local travel agent so you may hear from her.
J.B.
The world is really getting smaller. We had a wonderful time in Portugal thanks to your wonderful service.
(Stayed in Quinta de Santa Julia do Loureiro, Quinta do Tarrio and Casa Nobre do Correio Mor)
P.W.
We just returned from our trip to Sintra and wanted to tell you that the Quinta da Capela is one of the most wonderful, beautiful places we have ever stayed! We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

On arrival to Casa do Castanheiro, the owner gave us a warm welcome and had kindly stocked the fridge with essentials, so thoughtfull. So a huge thank to the owner and her very charminh daughter... Difficult to know what to say as this has been without doubt the best holiday I have ever had. The house is extremely well equipped which afforded us great comfort. The gardens are beautifully maintained and a lot of time was spent reading, drinking, while sitting amongst the flowers.
J.R.
Thank you to Luisa for a lovely stay at Casa do Castanheiro. The house is ideal, great location and really well equipped. But most of all the boys (and us) loved the pool! We did do some trips. Spain was well worth it. I am sure we will be back.
P. B. We spent a lovely week in your beautiful house. The atmosphere is very intimate and relaxing. We really felt 'at home'! We enjoyed the garden, the view and your music collection. Every day we took a swim in the pool, no matter what weather. Of course we also went to the beach, Afife was our favourite! We made several trips to the surrounding villages - this is a beautiful part of Portugal. Thanks for your hospitality! We and our grandparents had a wonderful time.

Casa da Pergola in Cascais was outstanding. The management was very helpful and the accommodation and location better than expected.
H.C.
The accommodation was absolutely beautiful.  Eduardo, our host. was perfect. I would recommend staying at Quinta de Santa Julia de Loureiro to anyone who wants a perfect holiday.
L.A.
"We have now returned to the UK after a wonderful holiday in Northern Portugal at Quinta de Nabais. With thanks to you for all your help and assistance. The owner was a charming host and extremely helpful.
P.S. Here's to you all a very very great amount of thanks for the most wonderful experience - holiday we have had ever. We are so glad that we tried it and for sure we will be back.  We have promised our children that they will come along next time, especially to meet the very nice folks, Maria Madalena at Casa de Abbades and our so friendly host Luis at Casa de Levada. They will be in our hearts because of their open hearts.
P.S.E.H. What a wonderful week. We've so enjoyed living the life of luxury in this beautiful house - but there is one big problem; We have to leave tomorrow!
(Stayed in Casa Bouca Velha)
R.J.M.A. Thank you for letting us share and experience your home, Casa da Bouca Velha, it is one not easily forgotten. Swimming in yours affinity pool with its breathtaking views was wonderful, especially enjoyed by my daughter, every minute of the day.
We can honestly say that this is one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever taken. As always, it is sad it has come to an end.
The restaurants were terrific.
E and F. We love this villa - it is so peaceful and relaxing. Lovely pool, beautiful garden. To be honest, most of the time we just stayed - by the pool. But we do like Caminha - the laid back atmosphere and deserted beach.
The ferry to Spain was cool - lunch at Oi was great. Thanks for a really lovely holiday.
P.S. The only thing you really need here is a decent corkscrew.

N.D. Thanks for organising our stay at Quinta do Monteverde.  We had an excellent week, and I would certainly commend the place to anyone else you wish to send there.  It is perfect for a quiet few days, and for those who do not want to spend lots of time travelling around.  It is a beautiful setting, and the owners, Jose and Fatima, make you feel so welcome.  We have already recommended others to go there.
---- Very gracious hostess in a very well appointed,  beautiful townhouse. Although we couldn't speak the same language we communicated very well. A  real treasure in a beautiful location!! I am a bed  and breakfast owner in Canada and really appreciated all the thought put into the room and amenities.

S.M. Just a note to say that we had a wonderful time staying in two of your manor houses, Quinta do Monteverde and Casa de Cocheca. Wonderful facilities and breakfasts at the first, stupendous situation and excellent dinners at the second, a warm welcome at both. Much more enjoyable than staying at a hotel or a villa, we would strongly recommend both of them.
C.B. I am really sad to leave and I am going to miss the whole villa very much. The pool is just amazing. Thank you-Obrigada!!
(Stayed in Casa Bouca Velha)
V.F. I just wanted to email you to let you know what a great time we had in Portugal. Our stay at Casa d'Obidos was great! The grounds were beautiful and the hosts were warm and friendly. They served a wonderful breakfast every morning with plenty to eat! We would highly recommend this Manor to anyone. There was plenty of sight seeing and yet we were away from the crowd and busy cities. It really was enjoyable and we'll probably go back there in the near future.
D.A. I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at Casa de Fontes.  It was such a beautiful and relaxing place, and our hosts were not only cordial but had many interesting stories.  We are hoping to go again sometime, but also want to try some other places on your website!  I'll be sure to let all my friends know about it.
L.H. I booked a week's accommodation at Casa de Breia near Ponte de Lima. I would like to say that we had a lovely stay there and thoroughly enjoyed the location and the friendliness and helpfulness of the proprietors. I will definitely recommend the place to friends who are visiting Portugal.
G.B. Thank you so much for lending us your beautiful home for the week. Although we were paying guests the owner made us feel like friends of the family. We wish we could have stayed longer (maybe 5 years) burt unfortunately work calls.

M.B. My husband and I were looking for a holiday where we could relax, enjoy some peace and quiet and escape from the hustle and bustle of life. Casa do Castanheiro was perfect for this. The location of the cottage was ideal. Although surrounded by other homes, it was secluded, private and peaceful. We loved the garden and the terrace and the views were fantastic.The cottage is well equipped and as food lovers and cooks, it met all our needs. It's spacious, open and wonderfully light.
Sometimes there are problems outside our control. It is nice that our services are appreciated at these times as well
P.G. Thanks so much for your prompt and efficient response to our holiday cancellation owing to my wife getting sick. I've really appreciated the way you have dealt with us from the start and wanted to say thanks. We are determined to still do the holiday
when she is better. We were so looking forward to our stay in one of your villas.
G.W. Once again, thank you for all your help with the villa and the consideration.  We will
heartily recommend your services and personally plan to visit Portugal again soon. What a great country. Obrigado! Ciao
