Want peace, space, enjoyment, hiking, cycling, picking olives and tasting wine? At this nature house, located in the beautiful province of Alentejo, it's all possible. Inspired by an old Portuguese shepherd's hut for two, this nature house overlooks a shallow valley. The design is eco-friendly. The cabin is made of wood and cork, which has naturally good insulating properties. In all seasons, it is a comfortable place to explore the area. The swimming pool with covered cabana is nearby. The cabin has a wooden terrace located in the shelter of a hundred-year-old olive tree. You can always sit in the sun or shade or enjoy the beautiful starry sky at night. The nature house has a small sanitary unit in which there is a shower and a toilet. The living area of the cabin covers 15 m². In it there is a good double bed with storage space underneath. In addition, there is a low cupboard with sink, refrigerator, kettle and induction hob and a seat with two chairs. One of the walls can be opened completely. This makes it possible to enjoy the surrounding nature directly from your bed or chair.

In the immediate vicinity of the estate is the beautiful reservoir Odivelas, where you can swim or practice water sports. For bird watchers and nature lovers, this area is a beautiful area. Here you can see storks and other special birds, as well as lizards and butterflies with beautiful colors.

    The space and layout was fine and everything was there and clean. We were there only in a very hot period (42 degrees) Fortunately, there was a large fan available and the door could be left open during the night. Pool is top! Cabana is top! Breakfast was also totally super! Owners are also super nice! Finest place is where the 2 hammocks between and under the palm trees.

    Great view and surrounded by trees where you could hear different birds singing around you! You hear and see virtually no traffic! Wonderful!
