Recent Reviews in Candal

Pousada de Viseu

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel!"

Hotel Porto Antigo

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay here. The setting was beautiful and the facilities were really good. The staff are really friendly and helpful and very welcoming. We had a couple of drinks on the veranda with snacks and then a very nice meal in the restaurant along with a good breakfast the next morning. The room was also very good with great views of the lake. All in all a great stay and we would definitely use this hotel again."

Hotel Dighton

8/10 Good

"Room was OK, A/C worked good which was nice. Parking in basement was a challenge, not for bigger cars for sure and you need to be able to navigate your vehicle carefully, not much room to get around. Breakfast was OK, a missed a bit of more healthy options. Friendly and helpful staff most of the time even with a few language challenges, receptionists spoke good English though."

Quinta Alto do Rio

8/10 Good

"Great accommodation with an amazing panoramic view. The rooms come with a river view and I don’t think I found better views anywhere else having driven around the region! The hotel is beautifully furnished with a nice terrace, living area and dining space overlooking the river. There is a kayak hire close by where you can enjoy a paddle along the Douro or the calmer Bestança. Helpful guys running the place. Breakfast is good; basic but sufficient, with eggs to order. A few things would have elevated the stay. The pool could do with a clean as there were insects. The dinner was disappointing and I would not recommend. There is a small kitchen, so options are limited, but despite this, the quality was underwhelming for the price, and it would be better heading into Cinfaes for a meal 15 min drive away. Overall a great stay - particularly for the views!"

Lavandeira Douro Nature & Wellness

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of the nicest properties I’ve stayed at in years. A truly special place that is unmatched. The views, the amenities, the accessibility, the cleanliness, the beautiful rooms, the nature, the wildflowers everywhere, the farm to table dining. There isn’t enough positive things I can say about this place. If I’m ever in Portugal again - I’ll be sure to make a special trip to the Douro Valley just to stay here."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Candal?

The best area to stay in Candal is directly within the village itself, or in the nearby larger town of Lousã for more amenities.

Candal village is a small, traditional schist village located in the Serra da Lousã mountains. It's characterised by its unique dark stone houses, narrow, winding pathways, and the Candal River flowing through it. The village is compact and can be explored entirely on foot, offering a tranquil escape.

Couples seeking a peaceful retreat will find Candal village an excellent choice. It's great for those who enjoy nature walks, with trails leading directly from the village into the surrounding hills. The quiet evenings and scenic views provide a relaxing setting.

For travellers who prefer a wider selection of restaurants, shops, and a bit more activity, Lousã is a good alternative. It's about a 15-minute drive from Candal and offers larger accommodation options.

When is the best time to go to Candal?

The best time to visit Candal is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months.

During these periods, the weather is pleasantly mild, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking along the well-marked trails that crisscross the Serra da Lousã. You'll avoid the intense heat of summer and the cooler, wetter days of winter, ensuring a comfortable experience exploring the schist villages and natural landscapes.

Couples looking for a peaceful getaway will find these months particularly appealing. The fewer crowds mean a more intimate experience as you discover the rustic charm of the village, enjoy local cuisine, and take in the scenic views of the surrounding mountains. It's a great time for leisurely strolls and photography.

For solo travellers seeking adventure and connection with nature, spring and autumn offer excellent conditions for exploring the region's hiking and cycling routes.
