Hotel Rural Quinta de Novais, hotel in Arouca

This 18th century farmhouse offers an outdoor pool and a lush garden filled with chestnut and oak trees.

I like the view of the garden and the mountain. The room was clean and has a timeless design, an eye for detail. Very friendly staff and relaxed location. A great way to enjoy the view was by sitting on the balcony.

Boasting garden views, Pêssego - AL provides accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around 20 km from Europarque. With city views, this accommodation offers a patio.

We absolutely loved the little patio in front of the house, such a beautiful and natural place full of home grown goodness such as apple trees, strawberries, aromatic herbs, plum trees, flowers... could go on forever. Just behind the property you can watch a breath taking sunset with view over the cornfields all the way to the city of Porto in the distance.

    Arouca is an interesting town with great scenery on the doorstep. It is a good base from which to explore the geopark and to do the 516 suspension bridge experience. Local restaurants and bars are very good value and there is a genuine feel about the place that this is the real Portugal.

    Great pleasant town to use as a base for surprising variety of walks or swims or river activities in the area. In this area trails are marked out very well for off-road walks with great views and through lovely hamlets. The town itself also houses a variety of museums, supermarkets, shops, and places to drink and eat local treats.

    I went for the 516 bridge and for the river board walk.

    I went for the 516 bridge and for the river board walk. Both met my expectations. However, both the bridge and the board walk are very difficult to find, specially the bridge. I understand that it is protected landscape and they cannot simply build a new road. But at least they could improve the signs on the roads - I found the bridge by mere chance and luck and almost missed the assigned time scheduling - and it is very stressful and frustrating to look for the entrance to those two things. I know this is a common problem on this country (lack of proper signs on the roads seems to be a cultural point of honor, just like cod fish dishes), but enough is enough. The stress and frustration of looking for the places can easily ruin the experience and no one wants that. GPS may not be as helpful as one might think on non-urban environment. New tourists: be advised for this and allocate enough time in your timetable for searching and arrival for this two attractions.

    Crossing the 516 Arouca bridge is a must if you don't have a fear of heights! Be warned that there is a 1+km steep downhill walk from the parking lot to the start of the bridge at the Alvarenga entry. Also, if you take the Paiva Walkways after crossing the bridge, the toilets are 4.4 km in, so I suggest that the park put in toilets at the end of the bridge before the walkways. The posta de vitela at Assembleia restaurant is of high quality. Vegetarian options are so-so, as is true in most restaurants in Portugal.

    I was mostly in between nature. As long as it's kept like this and the aesthetic of the place is maintained ... all is great! :) Fortunately, because of this, I didn't see many modern houses, which was great!!! :))

    Absolutely fantastic place, everything is gorgeous, it’s so relaxing and watching the animals on the balcony with my breakfast was amazing. We were so lucky to have found this little gem. Tony was an amazing host, so friendly, informative and helpful. He really made our stay perfect. We can’t wait to come back. Really couldn’t recommend enough. Thank you ☺️ Oh and I forgot to add just how wonderful it was to eat fresh warm bread that was delivered to our penthouse for breakfast. We wished we had booked more nights here.

    The staff are very kind, helpful and friendly, they helped us giving a lot of info about Arouca, the visit to the bridge and some hiking tracks. The room was quite cozy, huge and quiet. The bathroom was really clean. The bed was also pretty comfortable. We really had a great time staying at Casa de Vilarinho. Definitelly will be our choice when we come back to Arouca and we really recommend it! :)

    We were a group of 11 adults and we booked all 5 rooms. We all were comfortable with plenty of space to relax independently and together. We loved the very long table in the downstairs common room. We liked having the small inflatable pool to cool off in the heat. The house is located close to the Arouca bridge. We felt like it was our private home and grounds for the weekend.

    Very cute, very remote, very serene guest house in a tiny aldeia in the middle of hiking country. Our hosts baked a delicious surprise welcome treat and we enjoyed a quiet rest and recharge. In the morning we hiked to the tunnel and waterfall before heading to the Paiva walkways and Arouca 516. It's about 40 minutes drive to the Paiva walkways, skimming back by Arouca.

    Perfect stay in Arouca. In a short walk, you can reach the city centre and find everything you need like restaurants, supermarkets and other services. The hostess was very kind and showed up earlier to check in when we informed her we'd be sooner than expected. The room was spotless, and super spacious, with a lovely balcony. The shared lounge was also incredible.

    Excellent apartment very modern and thoroughly equipped with electrical appliances and furniture. Excellent location right by Arouca downtown with easy access to local business and restaurants. I like TV, but the one at the apartment was not connected to any service. I score this lodging at 9.5 for this reason.

    Good location close to Arouca. Quiet with very little traffic noise. Well equipped kitchen with a good-sized refrigerator. Retro decoration with old books, rotary phone and 60’s vintage microscope; the internet was fast and reliable. Swimming pool and the host gave us some fresh eggs from her hen house.

    The views were lovely although it was raining for the duration of our two night stay. The room was very spacious and being a converted farmhouse, had charm. Breakfast was good and staff were helpful. The traditional sweets from Arouca we were given on check out was a fantastic bonus!
