Compassion and care at every turn

Quinta das Águias is an incredible haven in Northern Portugal for humans and nonhuman animals alike. You can stay at the sanctuary, learn about saving animals, as well as plant biodiversity. The owners are incredibly dedicated, kind and humble. They provided freshly baked bread and absolutely delicious food with ingredients grown on the property. I've left feeling so relaxed and inspired, I know this visit will stay with me for a lifetime.

Pros: Kindness and compassion in abundance , Homegrown vegan delicacies

An Oasis

I had a wonderful stay at this bed and breakfast/animal sanctuary.

The hosts are incredibly accommodating and are doing so much for the beautiful and friendly animals they provide refuge for.

Such a lovely way to travel.

Excelente alojamento e refeições

O alojamento e toda a quinta é maravilhosa. As refeições servidas, vegan e com produtos orgânicos, são muito saborosas, percebendo-se o amor colocado na confeção das mesmas!

Paraíso

Um local lindo para ficar. Servem também refeições vegan divinais. Fica a conhecer os animais resgatados, neste santuário animal, e o casal maravilhoso que o dirige. Recomendo, vivamente.

Excellent place and beautiful people

This is more than a place to visit to find peace this is a beautiful project to help animals in need and transform their lives with love and compassion,the owners and hosts where Ivone and Joep two extraordinary people doing a hard task that is promote animals rights and vegetarianism in the north of Portugal that alone is a massive challenge and they are doing an excellent job.
Right now this is not only a place to stay but also they host once at year an international vegetarian congress that help promote our lifestyle that so many people misrepresent. Thank you for the experience and please come and visit this eden.

Pros: Excellent hosts, Beautiful projects, Biodiversity
