Enjoy a traditional Portuguese lunch featuring regional specialties perfectly paired with our finest wines. This authentic culinary experience showcases the rich flavors of the Douro region in a convivial atmosphere, and it is deeply rooted in our farm-to-table philosophy.

At Quinta dos Novais, many of the ingredients used in our lunch are grown or produced directly on the estate, ensuring unmatched freshness, sustainability, and authenticity. From the olive oil that drizzles over your starters to the apples slow-roasted for a comforting side dish, every element tells a story of the land. You'll also find quince grown for our traditional "marmelada", aromatic herbs like rosemary and lavender, spicy malagueta peppers, and rich, local olives.

Our table wines are crafted from grapes harvested on the same land you’ll walk through, and we even use estate-grown plums and walnuts for our desserts, including a vegan option. For those curious, we also grow "medronho" berries and many other seasonal delights right here on the property.

Great value. Polite, friendly receptionist. He showed us to the room. Large rooms. Large double bed. One mark taken off as tv small for room. Lovely grounds. We did not try the pool. I presume the pool was heated well as the pool cover had condensation. A large breakfast spread. Hotel close to town via car.

We stayed for two days and were delighted. A welcoming place with comfortable, clean, and quiet rooms, spectacular views, and a very complete breakfast. We appreciated the thoughtful touch of the traditional convent sweets from Arouca. Definitely highly recommended, we'll be back!

Hotel with a breathtaking view, surrounded by mountains and trees. We only had breakfast at the hotel, but everything was delicious and freshly prepared. The hotel staff was very helpful and ensured we could communicate despite the language barrier. Note: There are no hairdryers in the rooms (we don't know if they are available upon request at reception).

All 5 steps, attention, attention and care for the hospitals. Spacious quarters. Ideal for taking a day to scan right from Natureza. Here is a suggestion; Let's shop with restaurants for those who don't want to know the hotel
