We found this place by accident doing an "agri-tourismo" search on the internet... They don't really have this concept in Portugal we discovered... Our review of the quinta is based on dinner only although it is a beautiful boutique hotel too The situation is stunning, the [Dutch] family, are very friendly and welcoming even offering to pick us up from...

Fabulous place, we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our weekly stay at QDCV. Ard and family are truly delightful and friendly hosts, very welcoming and with a unique attention to detail, ensure that you are looked after at all times without being intrusive.The breakfast served outdoors was a delightful and memorable experience and the quality of food at dinner was...

We came to this quinta after staying at the 5 star Vila Vita Parc so it was interesting to see the differences between the two. This is also a hidden oasis in the Algarve - you will definitely need a car to get here and to get around. The welcome here was also very friendly and we enjoyed talking to... More

Visited in October 2010 and it was heaven on earth. I see the more recent reviews support that the tradition continues. The beauty of the quinta and the grounds along with the superb service and dining were spectacular. Ard and the family make this a special experience - tea by the fire, home cooked gourmet meals, tours of the property,... More

There are six rooms and one suite (seperate family appartment with kitchenette and living room), each with their own style and color scheme. In regard of the authentic style, don't expect a television or bright spotlights in the room. You do get high speed internet access for... More

Just returned from our 2nd visit within 5 months as this a very special guesthouse that is difficult to resist. Very personal service along with a cracking breakfast, delightful bedrooms and beautiful garden. I would unreservedly recommend QDCV and hope to return myself sooner rather than later. More

We enjoyed 4 relaxing days with our hosts, Ard and Noor. They were always available for information and advised up on, and booked, our local restaurants. On the Tuesday evening, Ard cooked a delicious 3 course evening meal avoiding any obvious dislikes including replacing the main course of king prawn for a wonderful steak to cater for my preference for...

You will not be disappointed with this fantastic quinta or Noor Ard and family. From the clean and large rooms too the large and fresh breakfasts served on the sunny terrace. We stayed for seven nights and having stayed at many Sawday listings this is certainly one of the very best. Kick off your shoes and chill out we will... More

We only booked this place for one night as we wanted something close to the airport due to us having an early flight. It is a beautiful location, close enough to the main road to get to the airport but quiet and secluded. The rooms are large and comfortable. The Quinta itself is very comfortable, nicely decorated and furnished with... More
