Notes on accommodation
Being a typical Portuguese house, the inside of the house remains very cool in the summer which is excellent giving the high temperatures of the spring summer season. A salamander stove maintains the house warm during the winter periods. Extremely suitable for children and pets, as house is all on ground level and property is closed off with fence and gate. There is plenty of open space to take walks and take in a bit of nature. The house is installed with an alarm system for total security of the property and guests belongings. You will also find a safe available at your disposal if you wish to be extra careful with your belongings. The house is extremely comfortable and cosy enabling guests to feel at home whilst on holiday.The person who will give you the keys when you arrive is Carlos, he is the caretaker who looks after the property when it is being rented to holidaymakers. He will be at the villa to greet you and and hand you the keys when you arrive.
Accessibility
The house is all on ground level but there are 3 steps to get into the house, however adjustments can be carried out for guests with need for wheelchair access.
Outside
The outside area of the house is arranged with beautiful gardens of flowers and fruit trees surrounding the front and side of the house. There are vineyards extending the length of the property, past the gardens where we pick our own grapes to produce our own wine. Guests are able to pick their own fruit from the fruit trees at any time, and wine is also available for a reduced fee.The patio is fully tiled and stretches the whole length of the house, contains table and chairs for outside meals in wonderful sunny summer days. Plenty of space for children and pets to run around. There is plenty of parking space for 6 cars. We love the peace and tranquility of the place and like the fact that it is situated in a small village where life has continued the same for centuries. Where the friendly village people greet each other when passing and you can walk around the corner for a coffee or a glass of red wine. We hope our guests will enjoy the place and the atmosphere as much as we do.

This is a perfect villa for families, situated in a private spot with a lovely pool area. The house is very well equipped, comfortable and spacious. On the edge of a small village although close to facilities and lots of interesting places within easy reach, including beautiful Lisbon. We loved the fact that we could experience real Portuguese life without being surrounded by tourists. Ana and Tony’s generous hospitality made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble to make our stay enjoyable. We had a wonderful holiday - highly recommended! Jayne, Phil, Rebecca (15) and Matthew (11)
02/08/2010-16/08/2010. We have stayed at many villas over the past 15 years but myself and my family have never been made so welcome as we were at this beautiful Villa. Inside the Villa all rooms were beautiful and airy . The outdoor pool was a good size and spotless, the pool was also cleaned whilst we were there.

Year purchased: 2006
Why the owner chose a home in this location
I grew up in this same village and have always been in love with the area thus why I decided to purchase the villa there. It is a beautiful area providing great peacefulness but is nonetheless in range of many good amenities such as shops, cinemas, restaurants and bars. Additionally, it is only 30 minutes away from the capital Lisbon, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of this monumental city and again enjoy further amenities. It is also 30 minutes away from a range of many beautiful beaches either towards the south of Lisbon in Costa da Caparica or towards the West in Peniche. There are the opportunity to play golf in the town of Obidos and to do some horse riding a short 5 minutes walk away from the villa.
Unique benefits of the property
The villa is large and the outside garden areas are extremely spacious and fenced providing privacy to guests. There is a private pool so that guests who simply want to relax and enjoy the peacefulness of the villa may do so without having to leave the premises. Because the pool is not very deep it is also great for the children who enjoy spending their time in the water. Pets are welcome, and the villa is very pet friendly. The villa has everything you may need including all kitchen appliances and household appliances. We also provide towels and bed clothes for the beds. There is possible access to the internet if requested. If you enjoy good food at reasonable prices we can recommend very good restaurants in the area which make delicious food.
