Quinta Rural

Northern Portugal

A small family-run nature campsite in the Serra da Cabreira mountains of northern Portugal.

Why we love it

The Serra da Cabreira is inland northern Portugal — granite, terraces, and villages emptying out — and it gets a fraction of the visitors that the Gerês park to the north does. Quinta Rural is small, family-run, and combines camping with a handful of glamping units and a working smallholding.

The north is green, wet and cool by Portuguese standards, which makes it the sensible half of the country in July.

Best for: mountains rather than coast, and a site you can walk across in a minute
