About this cottage rental
The Azenha de São Mamede is the result of the recovery of a water mill located in the Natural Park of the Serra de São Mamede. It is intended to accommodate those who want tranquility and communion with Nature. In addition to several places of interest nearby (Portalegre, Marvão, Castelo de Vide, ..) is the ideal space to start hiking and enjoy peace and quiet throughout the property. If you wish to take advantage of your stay, you can make some of the routes proposed in the information provided in the accommodation.
The property allows the isolation since it is not next to other dwellings; around the property there are other houses that are 200m, 350m and 550m away from the Azenha de São Mamede. The accesses are good; from the paved road to the Azenha there is a dirt track with about 200m.
During summer, apart from the pleasure you can enjoy by being by a stream, a removable swimming pool of about 4mX2mx1,20m is installed.
In the area where the house is located, the mobile network available is Vodafone, with a 100% signal; if you are a foreign traveler you should check if your operator is a Vodafone network partner. The two other larger networks in Portugal, MEO and NOS have no signal in the area.
To choose to stay in Azenha de São Mamede is to opt for quiet, calm and relaxation in nature.

Lovely converted watermill, with a working history. Complete privacy in a nature park but still fairly close to Portalegre for services. Nice terraces, a mini swimming pool for cooling down and a refreshing stream. The owners are very welcoming.

Jose and Clara were consummate hosts for whom nothing was too much trouble. The azenha was a home from home, comfortable and with everything one could need. The setting is idyllic, surrounded by trees and with streams flowing past the mill, on the smaller of which Jose has constructed an island of cemented stones, reached by a small wooden bridge. Watching the dragonflies and damselflies hawking up and down the stream was a delight, as were the clouds of white butterflies, including the handsome Iberian Marbled White. There are numerous tracks through the forests, some of which are signposted hiking trails. There are very large supermarkets in Portalegre, but we tended to use Pingo Doce in Castelo de Vide, which is our favourite Portuguese town! The mill (azenha) has been beautifully renovated and has all mod. cons. The bed is comfortable and there is a more than adequate supply of towels and high quality bed linen. If you love nature, it is paradise. On the first morning, at about 09:00, I stepped out onto the patio outside the front door and a pine marten trotted along the length of the dwarf wall which encloses the patio. We stayed for four weeks and were reluctant to leave, but I have my 1,500 photographs!
Thank you Clara and Jose.

This place was incredible from every perspective. First of all Jose and his wife were generous, kind and thoughtful from booking right to meeting us (late at night) at the house and showing us around. The wine, beer and cookies were a lovely extra touch.
The house was perfection. Cozy, comfortable, modern renovation but maintained all of its old charm. Beds we're comfortable, and a clothes rack provided for each of us.
We felt like we were waking up in paradise every morning.

Amoureux de la nature et d'authenticité, allez séjourner à Azenha Sao Mamede.
La maison est très bien aménagé et rénové tout en conservant son typique.
Le cadre est encore mieux que sur les photos.
A découvrir !
Merci José et Clara et vos parents pour l'accueil et l'attention portés lors de notre séjour !
