About this cottage rental
Tranquil cottage by lovely Castelo do Bode lake, that offers you the best of Portuguese countryside combined with lakeside living.
Ideal for walkers, cyclists, water sport lovers or simply for those who want to get away. The house is 300m from Castelo do Bode, one of Portugal's biggest lakes, and is ideal for families, couples or groups of friends.
The house is self-contained with a garden and patio where you can sit, eat, drink or simply enjoy the views.
(Alojamento Local 1945)
Swimming: Castelo do Bode (castle of the billy goat) lake is 300m away. The water is refreshingly cool in the summer and it is wonderful to swim in.
There are plenty of fluvial beaches to choose from and there is a map in the house. They are all very close.
Fishing is also possible and there are boat hire facilities in Ferreira do Zêzêre, approximately 20 min by car.
Cycling: The Ribatejo countryside is unexplored and there are plenty of tracks you can follow. There are two bicycles in the garage that are freely available for guests' use. It's an ideal way of exploring the countryside. And if you get lost don¡t worry all roads lead to a café.
Sightseeing: Tomar, the historical town of the Order of the Templars is a short drive away. The Convent of Christ on the hilltop is a must. The Sanctuary of Fátima, holy place of pilgrimage is around 30km away. Castelo de Almoural, set on a tiny island of the Tagus was built as a fortress in 1171. Lovely spot for a picnic.
Torres Novas has many fine churches within its castle walls.
There are many small villages around the lake that are worth visiting such as Dornes, a UNESCO protected village and Constância, right on the banks of the River Tagus.

Lovely, quiet location in a rustic cottage. Great for families. Bathing in the lake was wonderful in the heat. Those who didn’t want to bathe could sit in the shade of the surrounding trees.

This home was so full of charm and comfort. Every nook and cranny was beautiful. The surrounding area was stunning and we did not want for anything. The hosts thought of every detail needed. Extremely clean. Also the hosts were extremely communicative and kind.

Spent a lovely week in this beautiful rental. While it is not next to the lake, it is a short walk down the hill. Visited Tomar and its wonderful historic sites, an easy drive. Relaxing in the garden was a great way to recharge.
