Herdade das Coutadas with 30 Ha was once an independent farm where bread was made every day, goat's milk cheese and pork and mutton sausages and where many workers lived.
Today, these houses are transformed into comfortable apartments decorated in a country style to accommodate tourists who want to come and spend their holidays in the region.
In total there are in the farmhouse 5 houses for rent, all autonomous and in complete privacy. The houses are in excellent condition due to the renovations.
When a house is rented it is by its totally independent total space with fully equipped kitchen, bedrooms lounges and bathrooms.
All homes have garden tables and outdoor chairs on landscaped patios so you can dine when the weather permits.
If you want to come in large groups or more than a family you can occupy all or part of the farm and so be together in the common areas but everyone in his house.
The swimming pool which has a very large surrounding area is to be shared with all the houses, but it has chairs and shadows specific to each house so that everyone can share the space.
All in all, the houses are very nice and comfortable and relaxed with the advantage that they are in the middle of the peaceful countryside and are only 10 minutes from the city center of Portalegre, with its fantastic medieval castle overlooking the city.
At about five minutes from the farm you have 5 large supermarkets (Leclerc, Intermarché where you can do all your shopping.
This region of Portugal of a unique and rare beauty is located at the borders of Spain with many sights to visit (Marvão, Castelo de Vide, Alter do Chão, Évora) is a guarantee for a fantastic family holiday.
The children will love it because not only do they have a lot of space to play but they also have contact with nature and the animals that live on the farm (horses, sheep, cats and kittens).
