We had a great time. This is a old farmhouse on the edge of a small town. Very quiet and a good way to see real Portugal. The owner Bridget is very friendly and keen to help solve any concerns. She provided fresh coffee and bread every morning. The pool area was clean and very relaxing. The property is a small holding which means grapes, olives and sheep. If you are interested Bridget is very happy to explain. We found the location peefect for touring the area, and even a day trip to Porto. Highly reccomend.

Advice: check before booking whether a festival is held in the nearby town. See below why. We were greeted warmly by the owner at the reception (once I found it). The cottage is a short walk away from the main house and pool, but you cannot get there by car. We needed to make a short detour. The arrival is wonderful, with a moving garage door to give access to the property. Very secluded and private. The scenery was wonderful. With pear trees, peach trees, olive trees and a vineyard. We chose the property for the quiet surroundings, but that we were very disappointed in that on our first night. Starting at 10 pm the volume of the nearby festival went up and it was that loud that the noice seemed to come from the neighbor. No surprise that we couldn’t sleep until the festival ended at midnight. This ruined the first and second day for us. Fortunately, the festival ended that day, so we made the most of it. The pool was wonderful, although there are many flies because of the rural area. The house is spacious and cool. There is AC, but we hardly used it. During the night some mosquitos slipped through holes in the mosquito screens, so we proceeded to sleep with windows closed. The wifi was excellent. The owner arranged for my son to hold a small lamb, which made him very happy of course. We did wonderful sightseeing in Tomar. We can recommend visiting the castle, convent and town.

The house was very peaceful, in a beautiful setting. It made a great base to see Coimbra and other sights, and then to sit on the terrace and enjoy a glass of port and the views in the evening. Really enjoyed our stay there!
