Character full, but very comfortable. Beautiful setting with lovely views. Everything (and more) supplied.

I wish I could give 6 stars. Virginia is a gift to travelers. She was so kind and inviting and set us up with so many welcome "treats." She had so many good suggestions on where to visit and what to do. The apartment itself is amazing. It is so comfortable and the setting is idyllic. Then there is Skye & Luna in case you miss your dogs as you're traveling. The stellar views do come at a slight price so be confident in driving up the steep roads as you approach. We truly hated to leave but had more to do & see in other areas of this wonderful country.

Virginia made our stay a most pleasant one. The property is everything the pictures and description implies. Virginia and her husband went out of their way to be gracious hosts. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, intimate, shaded outdoor spaces to relax. Plenty of day trips within a short car ride. Wonderful!

We spent a nice week in the Quinta Da Tapada. The owners, José & Virginia, were very kind and gave us a lot of suggestions what to do in the neighbourhood. Also the apartement was good equiped and nice furnished in style. You can sit and relax on the terrace (under a roof) in front of your door. They have 2 lovely dogs and one cat, but they came to us very often. We also had to watch the door because otherwise the animals would enter the appartment. That didn't always give us a relaxed feeling and was the reason that we mostly have eaten inside. Our daughter of 13, who just finished her first year on highschool, was very pleased to play lots of games with the daughters of José & Virginia and practise her English.
