staying here felt like staying in a beautiful old home, with royal treatment. the room was very comfortable and relaxing. touring the property was like visiting an historical museum. the staff was very friendly and informative. breakfast was delicious with eggs made to order and plenty of it. an added enjoyment was the family dog that was always glad to see you.

nothing bad to say about this property. would like to come back in the fall so we could enjoy the grape harvest.

Casa de Sezim is a wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, it felt like we had entered a different world. The grounds are magical, and the house itself is a step back into another time. The staff were all so lovely. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful, and we had a special dinner on our first night, which made everything even more memorable. Guimares is also a special place to visit. We were able to call an Uber easily to go into Guimaraes for dinner on a Saturday night. Also, a gorgeous jack russell to keep us company. Highly recommend.

Nothing!

Wonderful place in a beautiful historic setting. Spacious room, modern bathroom, comfortable beds, incredibly big towels. One of the best breakfasts every. Wonderful dinner. Wonderful wine from the farm and tasting. Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Garri the dog was also fun. Plush greens and super pool. Near to interesting places Guimarães, Braga, Ponte de Lima ...

Owners can't help it: the highway can be heard a bit from the terrace. But complete quietness in the guestroom area. Maybe reuse of the gorgious towels should be encouraged to save water, electricity and detergent.

Amazing place. Don't miss it. It's an old farmhouse with the original furniture, pictures and everything. Eight rooms for guests, and more AMAZING rooms which were the family rooms with original furniture, pictures etc. The farm is still active. You feel as is you jump back in time. The staff are VERY kind. We planed on staying one night and changed the trip plans, just so we can spend another night there.

Beautiful surroundings, park full of flowers and plants, pool with shady areas and lots of peace. The breakfast was astonishing and served on the terrace. Excellent wine, incredible location full of history. Our room had a canopied bed, what a childhood dream! Guimaraes with its many restaurants and beautiful old town is just a 15 minute drive away. However, it's also possible to get lunch and dinner at the Casa - you can order it in the office. We were so happy in this little paradise, we didn't want to leave.

The bed was a bit hard, but with the blanket underneath it was fine :)

Lovely traditional estate. The owner still lives there, but much of the house is open to explore. We specified twin beds, and we ended up with a 2 bedroom suite that was just beautiful. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was great! Enjoyed talking to the owner and his daughter. Furnishings and antiques throughout the house really made staying there an experience.

We decided to stay for dinner. Thought it was a bit pricey, and not as "exciting" as I had hoped. Also, be aware the the Casa is a few minutes out of downtown. Although not at all far, just know it is not walking distance.

This was such a peaceful and restful stay in a well maintained manor loaded with history. The owner and staff were exceptional, giving us very individualized options for meals, snacks , vineyards and winery tour and generally making us feel well cared for and at home in the main house and surrounding gardens. We learned about Vinho Verde and the history of the Guimarães region, and the meals featured freshly picked organic vegetables from the garden and their delicious Casa de Sezim wines. Even the resident dog knew the exact way to charm us. Though my husband is not a pet lover, he fell for his game of “chase the rock” after dinner and was impressed that the dog knew exactly when to call it a night!

We loved everything!

A beautiful historic property, tastefully decorated with period furniture-Amazing features in the public rooms. The shady grounds and swimming pool were a welcome respite from the autumn heatwave. Delicious breakfast on the terrace. All very relaxing with family estate produced wines available to purchase.

The bumpy, un-surfaced driveway leading to the estate was difficult to negotiate! A tricky, very busy 10 minute drive to get into the centre of Guimaraes.

This is the utmost experience in Northern Portugal in the most beautiful country mansion ! in the natural outskirts of Guimarães remains a rare and hidden beauty… the manor is in original 18th beauty surrounded by a luxuriant landscape … the host has an elegant simplicity perfectly matching this unique mansion and the personnel serving you breakfast shows the utmost care … Casa de Sezim is the ideal combination of elegant sophistication and natural beauty ! We will definitely return to Casa de Sezim ….

The service was outstanding, very personable and helpful. A comfortabe and authentic experience. Loved the comfy bed, the huge fireplace, and a delicious dinner with wine from the property's vineyard. Fabulous experience, highly recommended.
