Cadaval, Lisboa
Wonderful old garden with swimming pool (shared with family)
Table tennis and "hand soccer" table;)
At the House of Alfazemas there's nothing to do.
Unless you want to spend your time doing whatever you feel like doing.
You can lounge in the terrace, read a book while sipping a cup of tea, go for a swim in the pool, or challenge your friends to a Poker, Canasta, Chess or Scrabble game.
If the weather gets cooler you can light up the fireplace and enjoy a warm and romantic moment hearing the crackling fire.
If you feel energized and keen on exploration you could visit the 'World Heritage' village of Óbidos, Portugal's most romantic medieval village. You could also go for a zen trip in Buddha Eden at Quinta dos Loridos, or for a walk in nearby Serra do Montejunto. Alternatively set off on a coastal trip and discover the beautiful beaches of Baleal and Foz do Arelho.
And when your taste buds demand to be stimulated discover the local regional delicacies or share a cozy dinner at home with your friends.
Whatever you do, take your time.
If you want to spend a nice holiday in Portugal in the countryside with a lofty feeling then this is the place. The setting of this house/appartement is both rural as its interior gives you the feeling of being somewhere in Lisbon. Due to covid we didn’t visit the capital though it would be easily an option if you wanted to. And there is much more to do here: nice medieval cities, a visit to the sea of enjoying a plunge in the shared yet luxury pool close to the house. During our stay we weren’t able to meet the owner herself, but her mother was there to check in and help in any way. What a nice lady she is.
