BACK TO NATURE IN A COMFORTABLE JACKET:
STOER, SOLID, SPECIAL, SUSTAINABLE AND NATURAL.

The space

Welcome to our little paradise in the mountains of northern Portugal. Started with a deserted square farm from 1673 we have grown to a stubborn holiday park on more than 5 hectares of hill country, at home for some spacious pitches, special farmers glamping accommodations, a passionate Dutch couple with toddler .. and ... a herd of donkeys, horses and cattle dogs.

"À LA FERME" IN THE MOUNTAINS OF NORTH PORTUGAL

Small-scale, spacious, natural, on his farmers, far away from mass and 'plastic fun' and with a nod to the nostalgic past.
But with a mega view, fine facilities from breakfast to complete barbecues (only in the summer), good info and special excursions.

The atmosphere is family, loose and free; (almost) everything is allowed, nothing has to be done. Peace, space and conviviality. And thus something for everyone.

Or as a guest wrote so aptly:
"Chaos and freedom versus order and containment. We took a breath here and you made it possible. Thanks!".

In the summer months you will find 11 accommodations and 5 camping spots.
In the low season only the 'year round' accommodations are opened, such as the Mountain Log Cabins and the straw house.
This means fewer guests, so no group activities and mainly self-catering. But also a greatly reduced rate and even more peace, space and privacy.

Access for guests

* extensive information folder full of fun (local) tips and well hidden gems, off the beaten track
* military staff and walking maps

Other things to look out for

We would like to share with you our beautiful life here .:
* As we share this beautiful place with a herd of donkeys and horses, and their respective guardians, the (well socialized) cattle dogs, so do you too.
* Enjoy the peace and quiet: no radio, no TV, no wifi
* When our planning allows, we would like to share with you our activities, experiences, local life etc.
