*ALEM DO MAR*
 
*Alem do Mar* is a restored rustic barn offering self catering accomodation for guests with use use of a private swimming pool.

The Serra das Talhadas is ideal for walking in the hills on public footpaths, painting, fishing (licence required), photography, bird watching or just plain relaxing! 

Tucked away in a pretty working village, surrounded by traditional Portuguese country living, little changed by the modern world, Jenny and Colin offer a warm welcome and are available 24/7 to ensure your stay is trouble free.  Enjoy a tranquil holiday in beautiful rural Portugal with lots of sun, peaceful surroundings and fresh local produce.

 
Just 2 hours from Lisbon in central Portugal, away from the south coast resorts, lies the least explored corner of Western Europe: a country of rugged landscapes and rivers, rural backwaters, picturesque towns and cities and contrasting traditions.
Ideal for two centre holidays - a week in the mountains at Alem do Mar and then to the coast between Lisbon & Porto with miles of beautiful beaches.
