A região de Lamego e a Casa de Santo António de Britiande são uma excelente opção para quem procura um encontro com os costumes rurais. É um lugar sem pressa, onde a tradição ainda desempenha um papel importante na vida local. A bela Casa de Santo António de Britiande, do século XVII, a maior casa da aldeia de Britiande, não é exceção a esta regra.
Apesar de estar relativamente perto de uma estrada principal, o ambiente ainda é o de um idílio rural, rodeado por 11/2 hectares de jardins bem cuidados, repletos de cerejeiras e pereiras. De facto, o pomar em plena floração durante abril/maio e setembro/outubro é um espetáculo para os olhos. O terreno tem ainda uma piscina e um pátio com uma pérgula onde são servidos os pequenos-almoços durante os meses de verão.
António e Ana Pinto Ribeiro, os hospitaleiros donos da casa, fazem tudo para que os hóspedes se sintam o mais confortável possível. O número de quartos foi deliberadamente reduzido para manter a autenticidade e o toque pessoal tanto quanto possível. Os dois estúdios no jardim com acesso independente oferecem um grande luxo: TV, frigorífico, mini-bar e um micro-ondas.
A decoração ajuda certamente neste aspeto, com mobiliário e decoração tradicional portuguesa - como o painel numa das paredes que descreve a evolução da monarquia portuguesa - a estar na ordem do dia. A encantadora capela do século XVII, com os seus azulejos e teto de madeira esculpida, é também parte integrante da casa e não deve ser ignorada.
As atracções nas proximidades incluem a bonita cidade de Lamego, que possui uma das mais belas estruturas barrocas da Península Ibérica, se não de toda a Europa – o Santuário de Nossa Senhora dos Remédios com a sua famosa escadaria.

Our 5 night stay at Casa de San António was the highlight of our trip. It is perfectly situated to explore the Douro Region, and so lovely a place to just stay and relax. Ana Marie was delightful, hospitable, and happy to share her knowledge of the region.
Casa San António is a hotel, and a beautiful historic home. The history, beauty and quiet sophistication of the surroundings and gardens allow one to feel immersed, having a truly authentic experience. Deliciously prepared meals using herbs from the garden and estate wine and olive oil, every detail has been carefully thought through.
This is a hotel for quiet, independent travelers, who care about history, appreciate the details of estate farm to table living, and have respect for the people and culture they are moving through, as there is so much to appreciate, experience and learn here.
This a memorable place to land.

My husband and I stayed here on our way to Lisbon. The accommodation was excellent. Everyone went out of there way to make our stay very comfortable. The property is just lovely. Decorated with beautiful Portuguese furnishings with a French flare. The breakfast was fabulous. Full breakfast fresh everything! The croissants were amazing! The location was just perfect right near Lamego but on a quite road not far from the motorway. We would highly recommend this property. Can’t wait to return. Kind Regards, Linda

Eine sehr charmante Unterkunft mit einem wunderbaren Garten unnd Poolbereich. Das Zimmer und Bad waren sehr geschmackvoll und rustikal gestaltet. Die freundliche Gastgeberin stellte uns darüber hinaus einen schönen Wohnraum zur Verfügung. Sie war sehr großzügig und die Gespräche über Land und Leute waren sehr interessant. Am Pool gibt es eine Küche, die Gäste auch selbst nutzen können - das war sehr entspannend, obwohl es direkt in der Nähe einige Restaurants gab. Die Location ist ruhig und sehr verkehrsgünstig gelegen. Der nahe Autobahnanschluss gibt die Möglichkeit, in kürzester Zeit Ausflugsziele in der Region zu erreichen. Es ist keine so spektakuläre Lage wie bei anderen Unterkünften, aber sehr ansprechend und ruhig.

This property has a gorgeous garden, pool, and orchard where we picked cherries, raspberries, and more! The house itself dates from the 1600's. Our room was lovely, large, with a great bathroom. The people who work there are so kind, and the breakfast was delicious, fresh, great quality! A very peaceful place to relax with good access to Douro and the surrounding areas.
Lovely and restful

My girlfriend and I stayed at the wonderful Casa de Santo Antonio de Britiande for a few days in June while on a road trip through Portugal, stopping in the Douro Valley wine region. I can honestly say that this Bed & Breakfast is probably the most ideal place to stay in Douro, for many reasons. First, location: It is within close driving distance (25 min) to major Quintas like Quinta Nova and Quinta da Pacheca where we could enjoy lovely scenic afternoon wine tastings and romantic dinners and lunches in their restaurants. It is also close to the Six Senses Douro resort which is a nice place to go if you're looking to have an upscale dining experience or scenic drinks. Historic monuments, churches and monasteries are also conveniently close by for visits. The Bed & Breakfast itself is rich with history, as it used to be a monastary and was later converted into an estate that has been in the current owner's family for many generations. The two B&B owners are some of the loveliest people we met on our travels. The married couple is extremely classy with impeccable taste, and they take very good care of the Casa -- it is apparent that they pay close attention to small details. Everything was very clean. The breakfast was lovely, which included: homemade yogurt, fresh raspberries and cherries picked from the Casa's own gardens, eggs, cheese, ham, fresh breads and cereals, and of course coffee. The land and gardens surrounding the Casa is lush and beautifully maintained. The pool looks out onto the Douro mountains and there is a view of a very old, beautiful chapel nearby. It was not crowded at all -- we were essentially the only guests there, which made for a wonderfully intimate experience. Staff is respectful of space and privacy. The only time we would hear a peep from the owners was in the late afternoon when she -- reading our minds -- would come to the pool and offer us a glass of wine and a snack. We highly recommend the Casa de Santo Antonio de Britiande for anyone traveling through the Douro region who seeks and appreciates history, simplicity and authenticity in their travels.
Ein wundervoller Ort voller Herzlichkeit..

Wir erreichten das sehr schöne Haus nach einer langen Autofahrt und wurden direkt von der Betreiberin, Ana Maria, empfangen. Da wir für den ersten Abend direkt ein Abendessen im Haus gebucht haben, schlug Ana Maria vor, in Ruhe auszupacken und uns dann einen Drink zu servieren.
Das dann folgende Abendessen war sehr lecker und sehr liebevoll angerichtet, es gab die passenden Getränke zu jedem Gang. Ich entschied mich für einen portugiesischen Schaumwein - Raposeira -, mein Mann für ein portugisiesches Bier, das wir allerdings auch aus Deutschland kennen.
Ansonsten ist Haus wunderschön und sehr gemütlich und persönlich eingerichtet. Ana Maria steht einem immer zur Seite und versucht bei allem zu helfen. Man hat das Gefühl, man ist herzlich willkommen. Schön war, dass das Haus nicht ausgebucht war, so hatte man viel Ruhe und der Service war noch besser.
Auch die Anlage nebst Pool ist sehr schön angelegt und sehr gepflegt. Alles in allem ein wunderschöner Ort, an den ich bestimmt noch einmal reisen werde und den ich bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen kann.
Insgesamt Note 1 mit Sternchen :-)

Eine Quinta , wie man sie sich wünscht: historisch gewachsen, gepflegt, ein Haus mit grossem Ambiente. Ana Maria pflegt ihre Gäste, verwöhnt sie mit einem süperben Frühstück und steht einem mit Rat für alles zur Seite. Der wundervoll gepflegte Garten fasziniert einen vom ersten Moment an und ist ein Bijou, in dem man sich entspannen und ausruhen kann.
