About this property
House with magnificent scenery in the heart of the Douro valley - Free Wifi
Traditional house completely recovered in 2005. It contains 3 suites, a living and dining room and an outdoor lawn area for meals and rest. It is located on a 10-hectare vineyard, which produces its own wine and oil. Guests can do wine tasting (by appointment) and follow the work in the vineyard. Totally independent, it is the ideal place to relax and contemplate nature.
Access to the house is via a dirt road, typical of Douro estates. Something winding but perfectly safe.
For stays of 7 nights or more offer a wine tasting!

The property is set in a breathtaking location overlooking the vineyard! Complete tranquility close to Pinhão and its culture and wine tasting! Would stay again in a heart beat!!!
This is a very comfortable home with gorgeous views. It is a bit off the beaten path but that’s exactly what we wanted. Easy enough to get to nearby wineries and villages. Highlight of our visit to Portugal
Words cannot describe how amazing this property is - private, serene, gorgeous. We enjoyed the quiet setting, the abundance of fruit on the trees, and relaxing beside the pool. We can't wait to return! Olga made some wonderful recommendations for the area. If you plan a longer stay, pick up your groceries ahead of time, so your time at this beautiful property is uninterrupted.
Stunning environment, comfortable accommodation and pool. We loved that it was out of town and that we were surrounded by vineyards, Roman walls, olive trees and because it was harvest - workers singing in the valley below. Olga our host was incredibly accommodating: all queries immediately addressed and she even helped us choose restaurants. Thank you Jorge Moreira - your wines are delicious and also to the gorgeous Lillianna, Jorge and Antonio. We’ll be back.
We had a wonderful quiet break here.
The road in from the paved main road is interesting and you certainly need a robust car to enjoy it.
The views and peace are to die for and there is plenty to do and see locally.
A few pages of a local guide would have been helpful as many of the local restaurants never answer their phone.
You need to food shop in Vila Real before you arrive as there is very little local.
If you want peace and privacy this is the perfect space.

Great location, very private
This beautiful house is in the middle of a Quinta, with absolutely stunning surroundings. Every window have a fantastic view of the hills. The house is very private, with fruit trees (wonderful orange juice in the morning) and large rooms inside. I had some issues communicating with the host. I had to contact many times to finally have instructions. The access to the house is not for every car. It is very steep and with a lot of big rocks which might be problematic for cars that are too low (we heard some scratching under the car). Thank you to Liliana for welcoming us and helping us to get to the house (a lot of turns in the dirt road and no instructions to the direction to use). The amenities on site are great, the kitchen is super well equipped and the house was beautiful.
Ons verblijf was heerlijk
De ligging van het huis met iddilysch uitzicht over een dal bedekt met weingaarden en bomen kon niet beter.
Zittend onder de Sinaasappelboom genietend van het ontbijt was zoals je het wenst.
Endroit magique, paisible, au milieu des vignes, silence absolu hormis le gazouillis des oiseaux.
L'annonce mériterait de préciser que l'accès sur le dernier kilomètre est difficilement carrossable (chemin de terre parsemé d' ornières). Véhicules surbaissés s'abstenir.
A l'intérieur de la quinta, notre hôte laisse à disposition des vins de qualité à la dégustation (moyennant paiement) ce qui témoigne de sa grande confiance.
Magnifique maison parfaitement équipée
Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour d1 semaine au mois d'août.
Le seul point négatif c'est le chemin d'accès a la propriété avec 1 chemin.sinueux avec des descentes et montées consequentes.
Donc il est important d'avoir 1 très bon véhicule.
La vue de la maison sur la vallée est a couper le souffle et la possibilité davoir du jus d'orange pressé ts les matin cest exceptionnel !!
La pièce de vie ainsi que les chambres sont tres tres belles!.
Donc je recommande cette incroyable maison un peu isolée qui nous a permis de passer d'excellentes vacances.
Dejligt sted til ren afslapning og besøg i vin-/portvinsdistriktet - “stedet med flest soldage og ingen nedbør”
Meget udfordrende vej de sidste 1,5 km frem til boligen, men hele udfordringen værd når man kommer frem til en fantastisk udsigt og skønt hus med alle nødvendigheder til en god ferie.
Skøn vin de producerer på stedet og skønt med egne krydderurter, frisk appelsinjuice fra “eget træ” og hyppig rengøring af poolen.
Eneste minus er der er langt til indkøb - bedste mulighed er 30 min kørsel væk i Vila Real (mindre købmand findes også i Sabrosa 15 min kørsel derfra)
The pictures of this property & home just can’t convey the beauty we experienced. The home is spacious, clean & well equipped. We arrived at grape harvest & the harvesting team were welcoming, going beyond the anticipated to make our stay one to remember. The surrounding property was filled with grapevines, fruit trees & olive trees. The views!!!
Shout out to Lilihana for taking extra good care of us!!
Nous avons passé 10 jours dans cette magnifique maison, typique de l’extérieur et ultra moderne à l’intérieur, avec une vue à couper le souffle !
La maison est parfaite pour vivre une parenthèse ressourçante, loin de tout (accès très difficile sur une route non goudronnée et très pentue par endroit, qui mériterait que l’on soit prévenus…). La piscine a une bonne taille, et est d’autant plus appréciable qu’il fait vite très chaud dans la région. Tout comme les chambres climatisées à l’étage.
Bonne communication sur place avec Liliana qui a répondu très gentiment à nos demandes (un parasol et une enceinte pour écouter de la musique)
Belle expérience que l’on recommande !
Habitação muito confortável, bem desenhada, muito bem equipada e numa localização privilegiada na propriedade, com vista para o maravilhoso vale vinícola do Pinhão. As árvores de fruto, a horta e obviamente toda a vinha tornam qualquer estadia nesta casa uma experiência maravilhosa. Muito obrigado por nos deixarem partilhar um pouco deste vosso paraíso. Até sempre e continuem a produzir excelentes vinhos.

Fantastic views, peaceful surroundings
We really enjoyed our stay. The views and surroundings exceeded our expectations. The house is very remote and the road leading to it was very steep and bumpy but we were expecting that and did not mind. We did have some communication issues with the hosts prior to check-in. We did not receive any check-in instructions or communication in the days leading up to our stay despite several attempts to reach out. We ultimately had to google to find a phone number after we arrived at the property to gain access to it. Once we reached them, they said they were having email issues. They were very responsive by text after that, providing information about the closest grocery store and a few restaurant recommendations. They also gave us a bottle of wine for our troubles and it was fantastic. Overall, a great place once we got through the check-in issues.
Propriedade com vinha que circunscreve a casa, permitindo uma estadia isolada e tranquila, longe de tudo e todos.
Casa, jardim e vinha devidamente mantidos, promovendo um ambiente único e o bem estar dos visitantes.
We absolutely loved our stay at Quinta do Poeira. It is truly more wonderful in person than pictures or descriptions can share. This is one of the best vineyards in the region with stunning views! We spent 3 wonderful nights here. The kitchen is well equipped to cook at home, the pool is amazing for the daytime, and 3 comfortable rooms for 3 couples. The winding dirt road driveway is not for the faint of heart though - it is quite scary to take especially at night! We ended up not leaving the house much and we were glad we had stopped at the Jumbo before arriving and arranged a private chef.
Do not hesitate to book this property - it was the highlight of our entire trip to Portugal!
