Angela, her mother Fatima (the cook), her sister Annabella, and the rest of the staff were absolutely wonderful. They took care of us like we family. When I arrived with a cold, Angela brought me tea with honey and lemon. When I had a fall in Pinhao, Angela disinfected my scrapes and patched me up when I returned to the Quinta. Our laundry was done free of charge— washed, dried, and folded neatly. The views from the Quinta are amazing, and there are many places to sit, sip a glass of wine, and enjoy the view. We did a wine tasting here on our first night and enjoyed drinking their wines with dinner. The food was hearty and delicious. The set price dinner was 50 euros, but we were also able to order à la carte. Fatima made traditional codfish casserole and turkey with roasted potatoes while we were there, and crème brûlée and apple tarte. The Quinta is a quick 5 minute drive to Ferrao, the location of the closest train station. There are no other restaurants within walking distance, but there are a few in Pinhao and another local Quinta offers a set price dinner for twice the price at Quinta da Marka. Another guest was picked up at the train station so you don’t need a car.
