Quinta do Pereiro is in the triangle of Arganil, Tabua and Oliveira do Hospital.It is near several well known and most interesting sights. For example Serra da Estrela, the highest mountain in Portugal.

Quinta do Pereiro is in Venda do Porco, a small village along the National Road (EN17) to Spain. The Quinta is 700 metres from the road in a quiet and peaceful environment.

Pereiro, as locally known is an old farm which was revived by its present owners in 1990. The guest house is 100 m. from the main house. The farm consists of eight hectares of land part of which are old and planted olive trees, citrus fruits, vegetable garden, old and newly planted cork oaks. We have the oldest and the biggest cork oak, measuring one metre in diameter in the area. We also have a man made lake which is fed by two natural springs for irrigation, swimming and fishing.

The guest house is self catering and is equipped with modern facilities. These are gas cooker with oven/grill, fridge/freezer, washing machine, solar/gas water heater. There is a natural stone fire place which is used for central heating in winter. Kitchen utensils, bed linen and towels are all provided. There is also a telephone and a satellite tv. Gas for general use, electricity and wood for heating are all included in the rental price.

There is a combined living room dining room area (6mx8m}. Double bedroom is downstairs and on the second floor there are two big rooms each with twin beds. The bath/shower/wc is downstairs. The kitchen and the store room are down stairs and the kitchen door opens out to a terrace with spectacular views of the mountains to the south.

We have our own 100m. deep well for all our water needs and everything in the farm is run on solar power.

There are nice walks lasting between 30 minutes and 3 hours. The walking tracks or paths start just few metres from the house and will take you through the nearby villages and small farms and pine/eucalyptus/cork forests. There are cafes and restaurants near which serve local dishes and homemade wine which are good and not expensive. The beaches of Mira and Figuera da Foz are on the Antlantic coast and are 1.5 hours away. For shopping, Tabua is 15 minutes, Arganil 20 and Oliveira do Hospital 20 minutes. There are supermarkets and one can find almost everything.

Coimbra, the old capital of Portugal is 62 kilometres away. Coimbra is known for having the oldest university and is also known for its very interesting small and narrow shopping allays. It is worthwhile to see when visiting Central Portugal.
