Why guests love itExtensive subtropical gardens and a banana plantation are what I would mention first to families at Quinta da Casa Branca, since they give children space to explore without leaving the grounds. The heated pool works well outside the warmest months, and two restaurants on site make dinner simple. Rooms look over the gardens and have a private balcony or terrace. The spa room suits a quiet hour for parents. Families who want lively kids' facilities will find this manor house calm and refined.
