17th Century farmhouse set in 25 acres of gardens, with superb views over the Douro River, reached by a lovely winding track through the grounds. Take a virtual tour by copying the link: meutour360.com/tour-360/qlal The property, with its orange, lemon and olive groves, has been in our family for several generations and the many prints, sketches and photographs lining the walls tell their own history of the Port Wine region of Portugal. The property is 70km from the coast and Porto (home of the Port Wine cellars and with its town center designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site).
The property is an hour drive from Porto City and close to Port Wine Estates. It is served by the Douro Train Line. There are lovely restaurants and well-stocked supermarkets close by. This is the perfect place for nature lovers, writers, historians, wine lovers and everybody that needs a break from hectic city life
Getting Around in the Local Area :
Quinta do Loureiro is situated in a stunning location in the Douro valley.
Because of its fairly remote location – although it is only about an hour’s drive to Porto – we have always advised guests to hire a car. Recently however, we have realized that some people might like the option to use taxis, or a combination of public transport and taxis. After all, the main railway line from Porto stops at a station just a five minute taxi ride away! So, we have put together a selection of possible taxi rides and excursions. .We can provide many other ideas for trips out by train or taxi in the local area . Please ask!
Examples of individual taxi trips prices:
To and from Porto airport: 170 Euros each way.
Local supermarket trip for shopping: 60 Euros
Visit to a local winery , a day tour : 170 Euros
Other one-day leisure tour : 170 Euros.
Taxi return trip to local train station , Mosteirô , or transport to and from the Porto Antigo Hotel or a local restaurant: 60 Euros.
Our weekly taxi package / payment in advance :
We offer for up to eight guests, with no car hire, a package for week’s taxi hire to cover average main needs for 650 Euros. One of the great benefits of this is that there is no need to worry about how to get to the house, negotiate unfamiliar roads , to enjoy the scenic views and have a relaxed meals .
For example:
Transfer from and to the Porto / airport .
Three trips to a local supermarket / Intermarché / Cinfais .
A one day winery tour , 09:30 am up to 06:00 pm
3 trips to local restaurants close the house .
Go and return from our local train station Mosteiro .
Individual trips would be at the prices stated above, similarly for guests staying for less than a week.
The check-in time is flexible. When you arrive, Francisco the owner will be waiting for you to give you the keys and give you details that you need to know about the house , restaurants and places to visit as any request from guests .
Check out time can be flexible .
Quinta do Loureiro is open all year round .
Local temperature by winter time is mild and the house provides all the comfort by a large fire place and units of air cond.
For guests with a week MIN.stay arriving After Day Light , we Offer free a taxi " FOLLOW ME" to drive before you from the airport to facilitate your navigation to the house .

Summary: Our family were overwhelmed by the beauty of this home and view of the Douro River Valley right outside the bedrooms and dining room windows. Francisco and Teresa are wonderful in every way. What a glorious spot to have experienced together.

Summary: We spent the entire month of August at this beautiful property. The house is lovely unique and has all the necessary conveniences, views of the Duoro incredible, the hosts are really helpful. The place is pretty remote and the road in is a little treacherous, so don't plan to go out at night, but staying home is delightful in this beautiful home.

Summary: The property is quite difficult to get to with a dirt road at the end of the journey (which was made at night giving it an extra difficulty rating). However, the view is spectacular and made lounging by the large pool even more relaxing. The owner speaks English but there was a slight language barrier which dis result in a misunderstanding that marred the stay slightly. There are cafes, restaurants and supermarkets nearby that are very cheap so makes it worthwhile eating out regularly.

Summary: We had a wonderfull time in Francisco`s and Teresa`s house. Both are very nice hosts, reserved but helpful in exploring the area around the Douro. Everything was clean as was the beautiful pool located in a beautiful orange and citrus garden.We thank them both and wish them all the best for the future.

Summary: Quinta do Loureiro is truly spectacular! The home, the property, the views! We originally booked for 3 nights but stayed one more (so happy it was available) and I still couldn't bear to leave. Francisco and Teresa are such gracious and welcoming hosts, a beautiful couple, warm and friendly, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome, ensuring that we were well taken care of and that our stay was perfect. My husband and I loved every second and will cherish the memories for a lifetime. Even getting lost (we always do) was an adventure and it was truly difficult to keep my eyes on the road as every turn was a feast for the eyes. We began each morning with the most delicious fresh squeezed orange juice, supplied by Francisco and Teresa form the many orange trees on their property, sipping our way into the day, as we embraced the views and beauty around us. In the evenings, after the peaceful sunsets, we enjoyed dinner by the fireplace and watching the lights come on around the stunning valley. We forced ourselves out a couple of the days to visit wineries and stayed in one to enjoy the gorgeous pool, homemade lemonade, grilling lunch and a great walk around the property. Quinta do Loureiro is breath taking. Francsico and Teresa are the epitome of hosts. We will always carry the memories in our hearts. Thank you Francisco and Teresa.

Summary: A beautiful family-owned property, with stunning views and grounds on the banks of the river Douro. I stayed with 4 family members and we had a very special 10 days. You need a car to navigate the area, and we often stocked up on goods in Marco de Canaveses. On Francisco's recommendation we travelled to Quinta do Pacheca, which was stunning. Boat trips need to be booked in advance. We enjoyed the beautiful pool and found everything clean and tidy. I hope we can return one day soon.

Summary: If there were a gold medal for Vrbo hosts Francisco and Teresa would be overwhelming favorites. They set a standard we have never experienced in a lifetime of travel. Not only did they help us plan our itinerary they went so far as to meet us at the train station several times to make sure we were heading in the right direction. Their graciousness and hospitality will remain with us forever. And then the property itself. The restoration of a family property since 1680 was stunning. Magnificent views from every window, air so fresh you could sense it, and orchards that supplied us the best orange juice we've ever tasted. The list could go on and on. Of course there was the awe inspiring beauty of the Douro valley. Twisting mountain roads provided photo opportunities at every turn. Day excursions to Porto and Pinhao were also great but the real treat was returning to Quinto do Loureiro each day. If Portugal is on your travel plans hopefully you can refuel at Quinto do Loureiro. It is paradise on earth. Thank you Francisco and Teresa.

Summary: The hosts for this property, Francisco and his wife, were very responsive and accommodating during our visit. The house was originally built in 1680 and Francisco has done basic renovation. The grounds themselves and the scenic views are something special. It is a large property with orange, lemon and olive trees, as well as beautiful flowering plants. We had problems locating the property and cannot thank Francisco enough for his patience in helping us find our way. The age of this house and the difficulty in providing modern heat presents a challenge when weather is cool. We recommended to Franciso that he consider upgrading the heat system when possible. He was gracious in providing firewood for the wonderful fireplace and brought some auxiliary heaters for us to put in the bedroom and bath.

Summary: We may have had terrible weather, but we still loved our time at Quinta Do Loureiro. Our children adored picking oranges and making fresh-squeezed orange juice, and Francisco was a wonderful host and kept us well supplied with firewood for our stormy stay. The grounds and views were absolutely gorgeous rain or shine. This place really is something special.
