Amazing

Awesome host and lovely property... enjoyed having so much space and the garden and cats to cuddle. Away from coimbra but close to lots of places. We were treated like friends even had custard tarts and fruits and bread left out for our arrival. Awesome cafe/restaurant very close where we had the best ever prawns. Highly recommend staying here.

A wonderful stay in Montem-o-Velho

We fell in love with the charming and historic Montemor-o-Velho. We stayed for 16 nights in an amazing and historic former Tavern/Inn. The Inn had been beautifully restored and furnished. The hosts are warm, friendly and welcoming. The hosts made our stay a 5 star stay! Lovely couple! Obrigada! Até já !

Step back in time

We wanted to be close to the castle and in a genuine historic building. Raul provided wood and starters for the fire box and we were very cozy. Electric blankets to prewarm the beds too. Kitchen had all we needed. Lovely garden space for lunch or reading. Great little restaurants and very friendly people. We met an English speaking family at a town festival and the wife (in the midst of writing her PHD took a day off to show-us that the most important Roman archeological dig was a short drive away. Raul (the owner) also cooked a beautiful cod fish meal for us. The 2 weeks we spent here were ideal. We did side trips to Nazare, Coimbra and Obidos and ate excellent seafood and drank very good inexpensive wines. The pictures on the site do everything except capture the friendliness and willingness to help a couple of nonPortugues speaking Canadians!

wonderful home away from home in a great location

This property is in a small village centrally located. It has lots of room and ideal for 2 couples, although the kitchen could use some attention in terms of cooking utensils, fridge, basic supplies such as salt and pepper. but the hosts are wonderful and very accommodating.

Sehr schöne hist. Wohnung mit ruhigem kleinen Garten. Netter Gastgeber.

Gemütliche historische Wohnung, mit allem Komfort. Um die Ecke Bäckereien und Esslokale. Trotz Altstadt eine Parkmöglichkeit vor der Tür. Sehr netter Gastgeber und freundliche Atmosphäre. Leider sind die Doppelbetten etwas schmal, ca.1,40 wir haben beide Schlafzimmer je als Einzelbett genutzt. Schönes Gärtchen, mit Essplatz und Liegen.

Spacieux et charmant

La maison est en plein centre, en dessous de la magnifique forteresses. Bel espace : en montant l'escalier (raide !), on découvre 4 pièces au premier étage de la maison: deux chambres, une bibliothèque, et un grand espace salon, salle à manger et cuisine. C'est meublé a l'ancienne, la bibliothèque est très jolie. 2 salles de bain. En plus de ça, il y a une terrasse (on peut manger dehors) et un jardin à l'arrière. On a passé 2 nuits. On serait bien resté plus longtemps, le village est agréable et bien situé, pas loin de la mer et pas loin de Coimbra. Bonnes liaisons par la route. Le propriétaire, Raul, parle un excellent français et nous a accueilli très chaleureusement. Nous avons très apprécié ses explications sur le vin et le porto. Vivement recommandé : aux amateurs de vieille pierres, de calme, de contact humain.
