Casa Bonita - Click on photo for more photographs from Casa Bonita.
Located in unspoilt rolling countryside on the edge of a small village in the Beiras region of Portugal, this rustic single-storey cottage is simply but comfortably furnished in Portuguese style.
The cottage comprises two bedrooms (one double, one twin), a living/dining room, well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. From the spacious split-level, south-facing terrace the panoramic views of the hills are spectacular. Patio furniture, parasols and BBQ provided.
Immediately behind the cottage is a vast pine/eucalyptus forest – ideal for extended walks. Two river beaches can also be easily reached on foot.
Situated on the edge of a small village the location offers tranquillity, without isolation. Basic needs can be met in the village, but supermarkets offering a wider selection, post office, bank, chemist etc. are only a short drive away in São Martinho.
The larger market towns of Poiares and picturesque Arganil are less than half an hour’s drive away.
Coimbra, Portugal’s oldest university city, Conimbriga, a superb Roman settlement, and other places of cultural interest and natural beauty (e.g. the magnificent forested national park of Buçaco with its historical palace - today a 5* hotel) can also be reached by car within 45 minutes.
