Wonderful week in the mountains
We would highly recommend staying at Quinta Tapada. We were extremely well looked after and the property was in a beautiful location, with all the amenities you could wish for; Satellite TV, Netflix, Vinho Verde from the vineyard and friendly dogs to pet and walk in the woods with! The pool was a particular hit with the children, with fantastic views over the valley from the poolside. Some really good recommendations from Virginia on places to eat and visit. We felt very relaxed and sorry to leave by the end of the week.

Wonderful Experience
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Quinta da Tapada as a family of four. The accommodation is superb, spacious and a wonderful combination of old world charm blending perfectly with the modern convenience of a fully equipped kitchen and two modern bathrooms. The setting is first class and the views, especially from the swimming pool, are breathtaking. The abundance of vines growing around the property along with the numerous trees offered plenty of shaded areas to escape the Summer Sun. The interior of the farmhouse maintained a perfect temperature due to the thick granite walls. What made this stay extra special was our lovely hosts Virginia and Jose, who, along with their children (and the two dogs and cat) made us feel very welcome. They made sure not to intrude on our privacy but were always available to problem solve if required. Virginia provided us with some very welcome groceries upon our arrival. She gave us ideas regarding places to visit in the area, arranged for a wheelchair for my Mother in Law and made sure that it was onsite upon our arrival. It is these actions that make staying at Quinta da Tapada such a memorable time.

Just wonderful in every way!
Well the title says it all really! Virginia went above and beyond her remit helping us arrange things prior to our arrival and up until the very last minute we left the property, I can’t praise her enough. The property and surrounding gardens is the perfect place to get away from it all, the pool is in a raised area with great views down the valley. Restaurants and supermarkets are within a few miles radius which is ideal. I can’t recommend this property enough. I would like to thank Virginia and her family once again for their hospitality.

If you stay here you will be making memories you'll treasure for a long time.
Virginia's place is one of the best we've stayed in during the year we have spent in Portugal! It's impossible to get bored on her property because it is full of fun things to do: a beautiful swimming pool, ping pong, a workout/dance room, board games, friendly dogs and a cat, trails to explore around the house. And we couldn't even begin to see all of the incredible sights nearby. But what is most special about this place is the hospitality of this lovely, interesting and kind family: we instantly felt welcomed and surrounded by abundance, warm hearts, and inspiration. They even bought a computer chair for our stay because we told them we'd need to work for a couple days while we were there! Virginia is kind and generous, full of enthusiasm and adventure. It's great to see someone so enjoying the experience of being a host and sharing her inspiring life with others. More than a vacation rental, this place is an experience. If you stay here you will be making memories you'll treasure for a long time.

Beautiful property, beautiful home, amazing hosts.
Our stay was perfect, we couldn't have asked for more. Virginia and her family were very accommodating and excellent company. Virginia was there on a moments notice and the accomodation, even though it is on a shared property with the hosts, was very private and secluded with its own entrances and is very well sound isolated. The property was gated so we felt comfortable with our 4 year old running mostly free playing with the cat and chickens. The home sits on top of a hill on a very private road with a beautiful overlook of the cities in the valley. We happened to pick the only rainy week in months but with a cozy wood stove we still enjoyed the time "stuck" inside. We forgot boots and Virginia even found boots that fit our son so he could run around and splash in the puddles. When we arrived Virginia had a welcome Quiche and some basic food supplies waiting for us because she wanted to make sure we didn't have to go out after a long trip in. The inside of the home was very child friendly (no stairs, no particularly fragile decorations around, etc.),the beds were good quality, everything was very clean and well kept, and there is a ton of space. We are only a family of 4 but I suspect you still would not be bumping elbows even if you filled all of the beds. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious. Summary: this isn't just a stay, its a unique opportunity to make new friends and meet amazing people, while still having the privacy of a more isolated accommodation.

Hillside country home
We prize this particular stay as one of the best HomeAway stays ever. Wonderful, friendly, welcoming hosts. Beautiful pool, pastoral setting, close to points of interest. Very, very comfortable. Lots of happy assistance from hosts as needed.

Great place, very helpful hostess
It is a lovely building on the slopes overlooking the valley so has great views. Virginia is very helpful providing us with some nice bits and pieces for when we arrived. All the rooms are a good size and the kitchen is well equipped. The showers work well, sometimes we had to give the water some time to get hot. The sitting room is very comfortable but we spent most of the time sitting outside. It is a short drive to Braga and about 20 minutes to Guimaraes, which is a very nice town. We would definitely go again.

Herrliche Quinta mit allem was das Herz begehrt
Die Quinta liegt absolut herrlich oberhalb des Ortes mit fantastischem Blick in die Umgebung. Die Anlage ist paradiesisch mit allem was man sich nur wünschen kann. Schöner Wohn und Schlafräume, eigener Pool, eine große Anlage darf komplett genutzt werden, inclusive. der saftigen Orangen auf den zahlreichen Bäumen. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Kein Wunsch, der offenbleibt. Wir würden jederzeit sehr gerne wiederkommen und können die Quinta uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Uma semana fantástica
"Que semana deliciosa passámos na Quinta da Tapada!! Não foi só o conforto da casa ou o seu entorno maravilhoso, mas também a simpatia e disponibilidade da Virgínia e do José, que nos brindaram com mimos e boa conversa. Pão fresco pela manhã, vinho da casa, figos colhidos na figueira mesmo ali ao lado, fizeram da semana uma estadia única para 5 amigos que foram para estar juntos, descansar, rir e acabaram por receber muito mais do que esperavam! No final, todos tínhamos a certeza de querer regressar numa próxima oportunidade. Obrigada, Virginia e José! 🙂"
