Quintinha Adriatic

The Quinta, perched on the slopes of its own 1.6ha wooded valley, is a tranquil rural retreat offering bespoke self-catering accommodation for guests seeking an escape from the daily hustle and bustle. The original farmhouse and outbuildings were painstakingly and lovingly renovated over a 10 year period providing a total of 5 accommodations. They all have their own private entrances and outdoor spaces with BBQs, and although linked by a central courtyard, they each are orientated to give privacy.

This loft apartment is reached by its own external stairway and is the roof space above the Atlantic. The roof was replaced and the west facing wall was completely opened up to provide stunning valley vistas from your private terrace. A glass-wall windbreak ensures you can maximise your time in this lovely elevated space be it sunbathing or having a BBQ. Comfortable chairs inside allow you to take in the view through the large double glass doors if the weather doesn't cooperate, and there is a flat-screen TV. Although the wooden attic ceiling design is low in the corners, the 30m2 of space still allow you the comfort to enjoy your queen-sized bed and private bathroom with shower enclosure. The kitchenette is very comprehensive with a 2-ring hob, fridge with freezer compartment, combi microwave, toaster, kettle, and Dolce Gusto coffee maker. Please note that, due to the wooden flooring in The Adriatic, no pets are allowed. Our Adriatic sailing experience took us from Corfu up to Croatia, then across to the east coast of Italy and down to Sicily: we hope you have as much fun in the Adriatic as we did! Having worked in the charter yacht industry for almost 2 decades as Captain and Chef catering to ‘high-end’ clientele including celebrities and a serving Prime Minister, we feel we have an innate sense of when guests want to have interaction or be left on their own. Having experienced all the processes involved in relocating here and undertaken such an extensive building process, we feel we are well qualified to give independent and personal input concerning the various pitfalls and procedures that a potential expat might encounter. Looking for your new home is an adventure but we appreciate it can be a stressful process. We have converted the original farmhouse, barn, outdoor kitchen and stables to a standard well above what would be normally expected in a rental and we are confident that having a comfortable and homely base to return to whilst searching, will reduce your headache and inspire you! Relax on your terrace or enjoying the hiking trails from the property with our dogs (or your own - some of our accommodations are pet friendly). We look forward to hearing from you!

We enjoy welcoming multi-national guests that are keen to explore the Silver Coast and beyond, and being 15 mins from Caldas and having Peniche, Foz do Arelho, Salir do Porto and São Martinho do Porto all within half an hour and Nazaré or Alcobaca 40 minutes, we think we provide a great base. Lisbon airport is less than 1 hr away.
