About this house rental
3 bedroom detached house with private pool, BBQ and patio area. The property sits at the edge of an authentic Portuguese village and has around 6000 m2 of land attached.
The village is in a rural area, perched on a hillside, about 5 mins drive from the nearest main town (Avelar), just off the IC8, near the A13. The house is within easy reach of the Coast (40 mins to Figueira de Foz) and Coimbra (around 40 mins). The roman ruins of Conimbriga are not far away and there are several river beaches in the vicinity.
The accommodation is on 2 floors; upstairs there are 3 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms and an ample upper terrace, sleeps 6/7; downstairs is an open plan space, including fitted kitchen, dining area and lounge with log fire and satellite TV. Outside there is an ample patio with pool, BBQ and downstairs toilet. There is access from the patio onto the adjoining land, which belongs to the house.

Very well-equipped, fully private villa. Tucked away, but easy to find, everything works very well, the pool is lovely, nice views and a shaded area to relax in outside. We stayed in the height of summer, but if you are there in winter there are radiators and extensive opportunities for televisual entertainment in the evening. I've not much to add to the previous reviews - all still just as good in August 2025!

This house was perfect. We've been renting holiday houses for about 10 years and this is possibly the best. Our family of four (kids aged 10 and 12) loved the size of the house, the cleanliness, the fruit trees in the garden and the amazing views but best of all we loved the fact that it has everything: a wide range of books, loads of DVDs, games, every last kitchen utensil and a bundle of hammocks. The house sits in its own land complete with olive groves and a quiet bench where you can sit with a drink and gaze over the hills.
We stayed for two weeks in August 2019, the weather was mainly good though patchy - we were happy to hang out by the pool or play games indoors. We ventured out to Tomar, the National Forest of Buçaco and Coimbra all of which were great but family favourites were the beach at the São Pedro de Moel (great restaurants for lunch) and the huge dinosaur tracks at Serra de Aire.
We'd not been to Portugal before but found it exceptionally relaxed and easygoing. The motorways are largely empty with very few macho tailgaters found elsewhere in Europe. We hired a car from Goldcar at Lisbon airport which was (relatively) painless - and shopped at Intermarché (Ansião) - 15 mins from the house (which had everything, including patience for dithering non-Portuguese speaking Brits). Every house has a downside, you can't always have everything, but any niggles with this place aren't worth worrying about. We were looking for a big house, in a quiet village, lost in a beautiful, remote, authentic region and we found everything we were looking for. Dan, Herts.

We have just come back from a wonderful holiday in this stunning villa. The villa was spacious, clean and fully equipped. We particularly enjoyed the BBQ and pool area as we were lucky enough to have blue skies and sun all week. The house is surrounded by gorgeous views and is very peaceful- a perfect getaway! The surrounding areas are breath taking, we had a few trips out to the beach and a nearby lake where we went kayaking and stand up paddle boarding- ideal for a family holiday! All in all one of the best holidays we have had, came away feeling very relaxed! We will definitely be back- Thank you!
