The experience far exceeded our expectations!!!! The architectural project is very interesting, resulting in clean and comfortable spaces, but without ever affecting visually what was the original aesthetic of the village. We are surrounded by nature and communing with it. The pool area was excellent but even more appealing with the lemonade and homemade cake that was served every afternoon. It was kids and grownups alike favorite part. Maybe breakfast aswell :) it was amazing. Felt like being home! They have several areas available, with toys and books, for the entertainment of guests. Dinner was always of high quality, although I think a more informal alternative for the kids was needed - yet on request they've made food that suited their (not so refined) taste. Thank you Paulo, Carla and Gina for such a warm reception! To return for sure!

We had booked a two night stay at the Colmeal Country Side Hotel. Upon our arrival after having fulfilled the Covid19 rules we were warmly welcomed. Our room was fine and had everything we needed, a good bathroom and a comfortable bed and a huge terrace. In the morning we could enjoy a delicious breakfast with fresh homemade bread, fruit juice, in short, all products come fresh from the Quinta. We have also been able to enjoy the in-house restaurant twice, which was run by a young chef who knows his way around, with time we see him obtain an Michelin star for his exquisite cooking. A heartfelt thank you to the young but very skilled chef, also to the staff Mister Rui in charge of the management, and always ready to answer any questions,and to do everything possible to make your stay as pleasant as possible . We also like to repete that everything is home-made, even the excellent house wine, of which we have of course stored a good stock. There is also the possibility of sauna, wellness, outdoor swimming pool, bicycle rental, in short too much to write everything down, it is best to personally get to know the hotel and its offers, this is the best experience.

On Father's Day, my son treated me to a delicious dinner in one of the most beautiful places in Portugal. Colmeal is an old abandoned village in a beautiful natural area, close to the Spanish border. The village had about fifty inhabitants ten years ago, but they all left and then the owners of this excellent hotel-restaurant restored the old houses and established their business there. Highly recommended, especially for its delicious homegrown wines and ingredients.

“For older guests”

Let me put my cards on the table. My wife and I are both in our 70s. She is super-fit and would return to the hotel like a shot. I have stiff hips and a back injury that limit my mobility, and I would not. I get around well enough, it’s seating and steep stairs that can be an issue. At Colmeal they were, specifically the seating. I couldn’t sit on either the low armchairs or the hard dining room chairs that are found everywhere in the hotel. The deck chairs were also beyond me, although I was fine on the stairs. (There are no elevators to the lower floor.) Só, if you have mobility issues or a herniated disc, you might want to consider whether the venue is suitable for your needs. Other thoughts, The steady Wi-Fi signal in our cottage was welcome. So we’re the multiple electric sockets (plug points) Unless the TV has been used recently, it may require setting up. You may see/hear hunters banging away in season. The (early October) swimming pool is not for the faint-hearted. (We swam very briefly.) While the nights were cool, the days were hot. The cottage air conditioning units turned themselves silently on and off. The staff were lovely.
