Pousada Mosteiro de Amares

The 'wow' factor starts as you pull up outside the pousada; a formidable ancient monastery adjoining an impressive church. Inside, things only get better with a splendid cloister (covered walkway) and magnificent dining hall. The fact that the rooms are simple barely detracts from the appeal.
