A great hotel is a place you long to return to, and we did. The hosts and owners Ferdinand and Miguel welcome you not as merely a guest but as if you were a member of their family. Set in a splendid small village in the Geres Parklands their hotel has it all. Amazing rooms with comfortable beds and ample bathrooms, but if you want a truly unique experience book one of the two Bungalows that overlook the lake and are adjacent to the pool. Did I mention the pool is a heated infinity salt water pool The only word of caution the Bungalows they are not the best for those over 6 feet tall. If you want to get away from it all, you have the option to be without wifi in the Bungalows, allowing you to really unwind. The best part of their hotel is the food. Miguel is a I dare say a world class chef who will offer you finest house cured sausages, hams, meats that are farm to table raised in the village. Eggs fruits and veggies are plentiful and in season harvested from their gardens. If you are wise, you will take full board and enjoy the wide variety of items on the menu as well as daily specials. The restaurant is known as a destination, many travel from Braga and as far as Porto just to have lunch. Ferdinand and Miguel are not your only hosts, on many of the long treks on the trails adjacent to the hotel their two dogs accompanied us for the day. If you want to trek in this region both your hosts know the trails better then any app since in their youth they were shepherds for their families livestock. We have been guests twice, and even though it is a lengthy journey we vow to return every year or two and stay longer each time! This is destination that is a must, I just hope they save space for us when we return for a third time.
