This beautiful nature house is a renovated farmhouse dating from 1920. The farmhouse was once known, among other things, for its production of jenever. Now you can enjoy a relaxing vacation there. The house features a large living area with an open kitchen and plenty of natural light streaming in through the French doors. A spiral staircase leads to the upper floor, where you’ll find 4 bedrooms—each with a double bed—and 2 bathrooms. The house is surrounded by a large garden with olive and fruit trees. At the back of the house is a covered barbecue area with a large dining table. The lovely, spacious 10 x 4-meter swimming pool is saltwater-based. Come enjoy your stay at the Quinta da Destilaria vacation home!
Nature and surroundings
The hills of the Serra da Lousã offer several beautiful hiking trails that pass through, among other places, the characteristic Aldeias do Xisto. These villages, with their slate-roofed houses, are a well-kept secret of central Portugal and are part of the country’s cultural heritage. You’ll also find several river beaches (Praias fluviais) in the Lousã area. Tucked away in the beautiful natural surroundings, you can enjoy a refreshing swim in the clear river water here. The hills of the Serra da Lousã are also highly recommended for mountain bikers and paragliders! The town center is just a five-minute bike ride away. There you’ll find cozy restaurants, cafés, and bakeries. There are also many charming shops and supermarkets, and there is a covered market where local farmers sell fish, meat, bread, vegetables, and fruit.

Nothing is missing there! We were with 2 kids (3&11jr) who have almost not even looked back at the TV iPad!!! So much to do there for them, nothing was missing!
Aan niks ontbreekt het je daar!
Wij waren met 2 kids (3&11jr) die hebben bijna niet eens omgekeken naar de tv iPad!! Zoveel te doen daar voor hun, aan niks ontbrak hetNot only the house and garden was absolutely great but also the owners! We have been there a good 2.5 weeks and really had a top stay!!! More than worth those 5 leaves!!!
Niet alleen het huis en de tuin was helemaal geweldig ook de eigenaren!! Wij zijn er een goeie 2,5 week geweest en hebben echt een top verblijf gehad!! Meer dan die 5 blaadjes waard!!

We would highly recommend this house, perfect, warm and welcoming hosts, a very comfortable house with unique and interesting features. We loved it! Thank you!
We travelled from the UK with our four children to experience this nature house and we can all say without a doubt it has been truly fantastic! Not only did we feel welcomed and immediately 'at home' but we could enjoy all the house offered from the wonderful pool (the children barely left it!) to the excellent BBQ (we discovered our teenagers can cook!)
We felt truly relaxed and spent our mornings exploring nearby towns, villages, and river beaches before returning 'home' in the afternoon to read and relax by the pool.
The house has everything a family could need and more, we loved it and didn't want to leave, also we loved seeing the cats around! -

We did not eat outside because the picnic table was taken up by the (cute) kitties. An extra folding table could be a solution.We ended up not using the 2 city bikes to bike to the mountains or store.It was wonderful to be able to enjoy this oasis of peace, nature privately, with a pool just for us! Also, the hosts are very accessible (via whatsapp or phone), sympathetic and helpful with questions and live nearby, making it possible to meet up. That was an added value for us!
We hebben niet buiten gegeten, omdat de picknicktafel werd ingepalmd door de (schattige) katjes. Een extra plooitafel zou een oplossing kunnen zijn.
We hebben uiteindelijk de 2 stadsfietsen niet gebruikt om naar de bergen of winkel te fietsen.
Het was heerlijk om in deze oase van rust, natuur privé te kunnen genieten, met een zwembad voor ons alleen!
Ook de hosts zijn heel toegankelijk (via whatsapp of telefoon), sympathiek en behulpzaam bij vragen en wonen in de buurt, waardoor het mogelijk is om mekaar te treffen. Dat was voor ons een meerwaarde!The property exudes a past and there is a shed where the distillery can still be seen untouched,. The garden is very large and beautiful with beautiful trees and flowers. There grow all kinds of fruits and nuts. Also by the pool is very nice, with a swing bench, great to sit in. Very nice also that the pool is with salt water. There is a covered terrace with a large bbq (for gas or charcoal) and a large table to eat at. There is also a soccer table a ping pongtafe and a bin with outdoor toys. Also bimnen there is a lot of space and also toys and books. The neighborhood is less beautiful, but typical and you are close to the mountains, where you can enjoy hiking and also swimming
Het domein ademt een verleden uit en er is een schuurtje waar de distileerderij nog onaangeroerd te zien is,. De tuin is heel groot en mooi met prachtige bomen en bloemen. Er groeien allerlei fruit en noten. Ook aan het zwembad is het heel mooi, met een schommelbank, heerlijk om in te zitten. Heel fijn ook dat het zwembad met zout water is. Er is een overdekt terras waar een grote bbq staat (voor gas of houtskool) en een grote tafel om aan te eten. Verder is er een voetbaltafel een pingpongtafe en een bak met buitenspeelgoed. Ook bimnen is er heel veel ruimte en ook speelgoed en boeken. De buurt is minder mooi, maar wel typisch en je bent dicht bij de bergen, waar je heerlijk kunt wandelen en ook zwemmen
