MORGADIO DA CALÇADA

Spent a lovely time with my wife there!! The view is breathtaking, such a great place to relax!! 10/10 would come back!!!

A wonderful experience. The family pride shows in everything. Good food, quiet intimacy and very lovely accommodations in the quaintest and friendly village possible. If life is good to us, we’ll get to come again! Evening sunset in the vineyard is pure magic. Be sure to try the wine, too!

A beautiful winding road takes you to this unique restored vineyard guesthouse. Lovely walks and a delicious breakfast were enjoyed.

The property is managed by a family who have owned the vineyard for generations. The rooms are in one of their renovated stone buildings adjacent to the villa. The rooms are beautifully designed and comfortable. You can enjoy dinner and a wine tasting in the living room with cozy furnishings and a warm fire. Make sure you get a tour of the old wine production in the lower level of the villa.

We had a wonderful stay at Morgadio do Calcada. It has been the highlight of our trip to Portugal - and there were already so many impressive moments! The property is a manor house at the edge of Provesendes run by the 18th generation of the household. The lodge is in a newly renovated part across the courtyard from the main house, surrounded by vineyards and a citrus grove. The rooms are modern with a very spacious bathroom. The owner, Manuel, is amazingly warm. He hosted the dinner the night we dined there and shared a lot of insight on his family and the range of wines he produces from his old vines. The reserved red was stunning, so was his white port. His staff is also very friendly and knowledgeable. The village itself is UNESCO heritage protected - charming, walkable, and probably has not changed for 500 years. The church bell still rings to tell the villagers time, and a small bakery opens for a few hours in the morning to supply the village with bread. There is a cafe, a restaurant, and a bar. But the laid-back lifestyle means they may or may not be open when you arrive... You must have dinner there one of the nights. Also, if you get a chance to tour the main house, do it. It's like going back in time...
