Quinta da Ponte is located in Barca d'Alva, a Portuguese village on the banks of the Douro River on its border with Spain. Its location allows you to enjoy wonderful views over the river and walk among olive and orange trees. It is an ideal accommodation for rest and relaxation, walking around, hiking or reading under an orange tree.
It consists of two apartments, which can be rented together or separately.
Apartment 1 has two double rooms with independent bathrooms, a living room, kitchen and a gallery overlooking the Douro.
It has a barbecue and common pool for the enjoyment of the guests and also, at a short distance from the house there is a swimming area on the river beach of the Águeda river.
We especially recommend not to miss the spectacle of the almond blossom and the arrival of spring, at the end of February, approximately, when the Almond Festival is celebrated. In addition, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that in this area there are orange trees that provide their fruit throughout the year.

Het huis ligt op een mooi plekje aan de Douro. De faciliteiten in /bij het huis zijn uitstekend. Voor voorzieningen moet je het wat verder zoeken (restaurants / boodschappen). De gastvrouw en - heer zijn alleraardigst. In de omgeving kun je wandelen, fietsen en met de auto tochtjes maken

Muy RECOMENDABLE
Estuvimos un grupo de amigos con nuestros hijos durante unos días en la La Quinta da Ponte (Barca d´Alva) y he de decir que la casa es muy confortable, muy bien equipada y los baños son extraordinarios al igual que la decoración. Todo está muy nuevo y hay mucha tranquilidad en el entorno.
Las vistas desde la casa hacia el Duero son de gran belleza al igual que el bonito jardín que posee la casa, con barbacoa y otros servicios a nuestra disposición.
Los dueños nos parecieron excelentes personas haciendo todo lo posible por que nuestra estancia fuera cómoda.
En cuanto a las visitas o excursiones, pudimos hacer varias para ver los grabados rupestres, los museos, etc... Todo el mundo en Portugal es muy amable, se come muy bien y barato. En el propio Barca D´Alva hay modestos restaurantes con exquisita comida.
Sin duda volveremos.
