Description

Right on the bank of the river Dão, between Coimbra and Viseu, four lovely restored farmhouses offer peace and quiet in a beautiful setting, with magnificent views over the river and the old town of Santa Comba Dão.
There are several terraces on the Quinta, bordered with vine-tendrils. Here you can find a vegetable garden and fruit trees.
There is also a small vineyard on the Quinta and nearer to the river there are some very old cork oaks.
Three of the four old farm cottages Casa das Mimosas, Casa da Tília and Casa da Nogueira are dotted around the country-seat (3 hectares) on the river-side. So much privacy and tranquillity is to be found there.
The fourth house, Casa da Abelenda, has its own grounds at about 500 meters from the other houses. This cottage stands alone within 5 ha. of land with various species of trees, facing the view of a lovely valley with a small stream. From the wooden veranda you can occasionally spot a fox or a wild boar.
The 4 cottages are decorated with rustic charm and have a homely feel about them thanks to the tasteful use of wood, traditional tiles and granite.
They offer you the choice of a room, an apartment or a whole house with magnificent views over the river.
All of the rooms and cottages have central heating.

Services

If you prefer a swimming pool instead of swimming in the river, there is one nearby the main house, Casa da Nogueira. For little children we have a special, round pool, partly visible at the right side of the picture.
The roof at the left side is from the veranda of the bath house, where you can sit in the shade.
From the pool you will have a beautiful view over the river.
Near to the river there are some very old cork oaks. In the shade of one of them you can play chess on a gigantic chess-board.
