5/5

This small, beautifully decorated nature house has been lovingly converted from the old baking house into a fully independent cottage. It has a fully equipped kitchen (with small dishwasher), bathroom with shower, living room with sofa bed (sleeps 2), bedroom and terrace, which can be accessed from both rooms. With a good glass of red wine you can enjoy the fantastic view and relax. In the kitchen (former bakery) there is also the rustic, fully functional bread oven, which allows us to prepare delicious casseroles again and again.

Nature and surroundings

The small nature house in Abegoa, is a small island of bliss. It is located on the northeastern slope of Marvão, in the middle of the Serra de São Mamede Nature Reserve in the Alto Alentejo and less than 8 km from the Spanish border. Amidst exciting natural light spectacles with endless views, breathtaking views are offered deep into the interior of Portugal and Spain, surrounded by barely tamed nature. Surrounded by hiking trails and smugglers' routes, there are excellent hiking opportunities amidst exciting and rustic nature. The deserted streets in this region offer some of the best driving experiences in Europe for bicycles, motorcycles, vintage cars and other mobile vehicles.

    Simply fantastic!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5/5

    We had the most wonderful stay in this peaceful retreat near Marvão. It was everything we had hoped for and so much more. Surrounded by nature, the atmosphere was calm and restorative—exactly what we were looking for to rest and recharge. The views were absolutely breathtaking, offering a sense of tranquility that’s hard to put into words.
    Our host, Humberto, was exceptional—warm, attentive, and thoughtful, making us feel completely at home. His hospitality truly made our experience even more special.
    If you’re looking for a place to unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy stunning surroundings, this is the perfect spot. We can’t recommend it enough and would love to return!

    It is a beautiful cottage and everything needed is just there. The view is magnificent.

    It more than met our expectations! A lovely and quiet environment. Our little dog could run loose outside. Humberto (the owner) is very committed and did everything to make us feel comfortable. Very helpful and has many tips.

What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.

After each stay, we invite our guests to rate the nature house, the surroundings, and specific activities. An activity is only shown at a nature house if it meets two conditions: at least 20 unique reviews have been given, and at least 60% of guests gave a score of ‘amazing’ (3/4) or ‘wow’ (4/4).
