The room/apartment was in a family's historic (1744) compound, surrounded by a 10' high rock wall. The compound was large with orange and lemon trees and several small houses, along with the owner's 2-story house. The family had a vineyard with sheep and chickens in it and made wine commercially as well. The room we rented had a small living room, bathroom and bedroom and was very clean and modern inside, while outside had rock walls. The host provided a hearty breakfast with fresh bakery breads, eggs, fruit, juice, yogurt, granola, fresh coffee and tea available and milk. We asked her questions about the history of the place and area. She was fluent in English and very willing to share her knowledge. She recommended several wineries to visit and the basilica in the nearby city. She also let us know about shopping for food in the area as the day we were leaving was Good Friday and some stores might be closing early.

The bed was very firm. Otherwise we had no issues with the lodging. Every place we stayed had too firm beds.

Beautiful setting and Room. Fantastic owners that were a tremendous help in a variety of ways!

Room, location, the family owners, the family wine, breakfast, the grounds. Cecelia and Christiano were great.

Everything was great. What we didn't like...was leaving.

lovely grounds. perfect for a Camino rest day. generous, warm hosts happy to answer our endless questions about northern Portugal

On my second visit to Casa da Reina with a friend, we're staying for two rainy days. The farm stay is marvelous in late autumn. Rooms are cozy with comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms. The hosts are as welcoming, lively and funny as I remember from a Camino trip in May, 2017. Wonderful breakfast and a great separate kitchen to cook our own meals. Grocery store about a 15 minute walk. Bonus is the wine produced by the owners' own cellars.

Casa da Reina is literally on the Camino Portuguese, so if you're a peregrino, you'll find it easily. If you're coming from Ponte do Lima, for example, taxi drivers may not be familiar with the location, so you may wish to have a map and encouraging word for your driver. Not to say that this is a "not like" but if you don't have your own vehicle, it may take a bit more time to get yourself here. And it is so worth it.
