We were booked here for 4 nights by a travel group, but the hotel is worth only staying 1 or 2 nights. It was interesting to see the property and look at the grounds. The room was large but showing signs of age. Not surprisingly there was no walk-in shower and the run-down nature of the bathroom was a distraction. We met the owner of the property who was quite interesting and fun to interact with. We did have a cooking class with her one night and that was fun. Other food at the Quinta was acceptable but not as good as our fresh made meal. The place is about 10-15 min from the nearest significant town Lamego and challenging to stay at without a car. Worth a short visit to see a family-owned Quinta.

I'm writing a negative review, which I don't usually do, because I was very upset to see my friends (who held their wedding at Hotel Rural Casa dos Viscondes da Varzea) so stressed and upset through the wedding due to the owner, knowingly, double booking their event. My friends had booked the venue for 3 days with full exclusivity - but on arrival the prior wedding guests were still there, and they were told they were refusing to leave their rooms. Later they found out that they had legitimately booked - but the venue put the blame on the guests. We even saw people on the morning of the wedding day, and because the hotel rooms had been double booked, the groom had nowhere to get ready! Personally, I had to stay in another room, 5 mins drive at the other end of the winery which was a bit of an inconvenience, the room was pretty worn down and I found a bug in the bed. Additionally, on the first day day, 3 coach loads of people arrived for a private dinner in another part of the venue - apparently this has been a weekly event since January, but the venue did not tell my friends or re-negotiated the exclusivity. The wedding day itself was beautiful, and I felt very sorry for the staff as they were really nice and must put up with a lot of complaints due to the way the venue i s run. The day after the wedding, they were still meant to have exclusivity, but guests arrived for the following wedding. Which put a bit of a dampner on the pool party they had booked, with unexpected strangers hanging around. One of the main reasons I'm writing this review is because of the way the hotel managed this - they continually lied and made excuses to my friends, which I think made it worse for them. And when sitting down to renegotiate the price and get a partial refund - the owner had the audacity to laugh at them! It is very hard to see one of your closest friends cry on the days that are meant to be the happiest and I think that the owners should significantly recompense my friends for the stress they put them through.

Room was very rundown as though ******* clients get the worse rooms. Toilet ran all night, had to get the lamp fixed, curtains were fithy, and entrance garden all overgrown making it hard to enter the room. Too bad- potentially a great place but needs alot of work.

A different type of hotel set in acres of vineyards this is a good place to stay if you want something a bit different. On the Saturday night we paid for the buffet which was great value.

Lovely place but they double booked for my friends’ wedding causing so much stress. Not to be trusted for important events. Some guests were in rooms far away and couldn’t walk to and from the property. This meant they couldn’t use the facilities.

Don’t book an event here, owner tries to get 4 weddings in 1 weekend. Booked for a week with the whole family and yet another wedding who booked the whole place now have no rooms, (apologies to the other wedding, I hope you had a lovely day) our wedding day was lovely until it’s finished and forgot about the next day as the owner moves onto the next wedding. Asked us to move to another property twice and had to tell the owner that we have booked here for a week and we will not move. Food was good but trying to eat anything Halal is impossible. Open bar means 2 types of drinks…. Feel for the employees getting shouted out every 5 seconds It’s the most disorganised place I have ever been, surely if you know the next day that a couple have booked the full thing you would not allow us to stay a week??? Felt as though the other group were against us as the owner mentioned we were rude and uneducated as we didn’t want to move to another place with no activities (again the other wedding, I feel for you guys over there)

We visited this 17th-century wine estate in Northern Portugal’s Douro Valley wine region on an included excursion from our April 2024 Avalon Waterways River Cruise. We were met by Countess Maria Manuel Cyrne, the owner of this family estate (historical quinto) and she led the group to a covered veranda/terrace where we were served wine and a variety of homemade sweets. The countess is a very charismatic character and it’s hard not to like (love) her enthusiasm. She tells us that she was born and grew up on the Casa dos Viscondes da Várzea estate, which had been owned by her family for generations. Due to political and economic changes in 1975 when she was just over 20 years old, it was sold and then fell into disrepair. However, in 1994, the countess and her husband were able to buy it back and restore the manor house. By 2003, the estate became a hotel. She escorted the group through the manor house that included antique furnishings and then a walk-through part of the 400+ acre. We saw the vineyards, fruit orchards, and olive groves. The vineyards produce the manor house’s red, white, and rosé wine. The house also has an exclusive Port wine, which we tasted at the vintage barn along with fruit from the orchards. Arriving back to the manor house, we were given more wine and some wonderful sandwiches and cookies. We also learned about the countess’ journey to motherhood. After 27 years of unsuccessful attempts, including 17 in vitro fertilizations, she finally achieved her dream. At the age of 49, Maria gave birth to twin sons—a true miracle. If we should ever get back to Portugal, we would love to stay here for a few days and enjoy all the amenities this estate has to offer.
