Scandi minimalism meets coastal chic at this apartment in Cascais. High ceilings and large windows create a bright and breezy feel in each room. A few bedrooms have lofts, while others boast desks for digital nomads. There's also a large kitchen where you can whip up your take on Portuguese cuisine. Outside, a balcony makes the ideal perch for a sundowner or two – all while enjoying the sea views. The icing on the cake is the location. You're right on Cascais beachfront, just a few steps from the water. Sand, sun, and surf on the doorstep – just the way we like it.

Stylish and warm, this home is a great base in Cascais. The beach is just a fifteen-minute walk away and you can reach the Parque Urbano da Ribeira dos Mochos in sixteen minutes on foot. When you’re not out seeing the sights, you’ll be glad to have such a cool, comfortable place to call home. We love the terrace and patio, where you can soak up the sun, dine alfresco, and watch the world go by. There’s plenty of room for everyone to gather together inside, too, and the comfy sofa and delightful bathtub make unwinding a breeze.

So, this home has the best of both worlds with its location. It's situated in the picturesque town of Cascais with its charming streets and beaches, yet it's just a short stroll to the train station which connects to Lisbon. There's plenty of room for entertaining in the apartment, and there's a desk in one of the bedrooms if you need to catch up on work emails. If you want to accommodate six guests, though, two will be sleeping on a sofa in the open-plan living room.

Located in the heart of Cascais, this three-storey abode is just a five-minute walk from Rainha Beach and a few hundred metres from shops, restaurants and cafes. If you fancy swapping the coast for the city, Lisbon is 30 kilometres away. Our favourite feature of the home was the private terrace with views across the rooftops and the bay beyond. If you’ll be staying as a group of six, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the top floor sitting room.

Beautiful beaches, crashing surf, and dramatic nature all await you at this newly refurbished home in Cascais. Tucked away in a picturesque village, this south-facing home comprises three separate villas on a private compound, making it ideal for a large family holiday or getaway with friends. Named after local beaches, Villa Guincho and Villa Cresmina have two bedrooms, with the former benefitting from a second bathroom. Villa Abano is the smallest with one bedroom. All villas boast beautiful sun-soaked terraces with space for alfresco dining and barbecues. Indoors, the design employs sandy neutrals, warm pops of colour and organic materials such as wicker and bamboo to create tranquil sanctuaries with a distinctly coastal feel. From surfing and beach lounging to hiking and cycling through verdant Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, there's something to satisfy everyone's wanderlust. Thrilling Guincho Beach is just a ten-minute walk away, while the calmer sands of Costa da Estoril are also close by. A meander through the Cascais' historical town centre is definitely a must, and if the mood takes you, Lisbon is just half an hour away. After hours of exploring and adventure, you'll love relaxing in the outdoor seating areas, playing board games and catching up well into the evening.

Situated in the sleepy town of Cascais, an assortment of former fisherman houses converted into shops and restaurants, this deluxe villa is an escape from modern stresses. Walk along the charming waterfront and bask in the natural scenery whilst tasting the local delicacies.

For a more enlivened itinerary, the bustle of Lisbon is just thirty-two minutes away by car. Portugal's capital adheres to every mood, whether it's a leisurely perusing of art galleries or sampling the local wines. The villa's ideal location lets you enjoy whatever style of holiday you want.

Of course, for a true aura of relaxation, you can while away the days amidst the luxury of the villa. Swim in the fresh water before sunbathing on the various sun beds surrounding the pool. Come the evening, rustle up some local meats on the BBQ and enjoy the succulent taste at the outdoor dining table.

Inside the villa, the open-plan living space is sophisticated without being showy – think high-quality fittings with a tasteful decor. To add to the splendour, a grand piano rests near the sofas to lace each laughter-filled evening with a classical soundtrack.

The cutting angles of this modern villa are softened on all sides by lush botanical foliage filling the grounds. A covered terrace set with a cluster of dining tables is illuminated by huge Moroccan lamps at twilight and boasts a built-in barbecue of steel and concrete. Sofas and loungers are strewn across the immaculate lawn, and you can choose to soak up the sun, or lounge in the shade of the pool terrace after a dip in the cooling turquoise water. 

Wake to the sound of birds and whip up breakfast in the huge kitchen and enjoy it on the garden terrace, or by the fireplace in the grand lounge. Should you need to get some work done, there’s a library-like study with two computers and the creatives of the group can spend evenings strumming a guitar or tinkering on the piano. 

If you want to get out and explore the surrounding countryside or head into the centre of Cascais in fifteen minutes, a handful of bikes in the carport are at your disposal, and there’s plenty of room for parking in shade too.

Modern Botanica

Lift Access

Sleek and sophisticated, this apartment is both dramatic and practical. You’ll find the home situated just 300 metres from the Praia da Ribeira de Cascais – it’s one of the most sheltered stretches of the Lisbon coastline with still waters, perfect for paddling, on long, hot afternoons. When hunger strikes, you won’t have to travel far. There are countless dining options within a five-minute walk from either the beach or your doorstep. Back at the abode, a contemporary living space with walls of glass and swathes of moody navy blue is inviting. Recline on the sofa with a drop of red and a platter of regional cheese, put together at the glossy kitchen island. And when it’s time to get your head down, quiet bedrooms guarantee a blissful night’s sleep.

In The Summertime

This fuss-free apartment is perfect for big gatherings and multigenerational escapes to the Lisbon coastline. A spacious dining area calls for catch-ups over supper, while the cosy balcony is ideal for quiet moments in the morning – especially when accompanied with a strong espresso and flaky pastry. There are two sitting rooms to loll about in between excursions, and comfy bedrooms that demand midday catnaps. After settling in, throw on your swimsuit and make a beeline for the communal pool – or loungers, if sun worshipping is more your thing. The surrounding gardens are tranquil and inviting; spot wildlife as you stroll beside the stream. Take the fifteen-minute walk into Cascais for restaurants, cafes and of course, the beach. Praia da Ribeira hums during the daytime, but visit in the late afternoon for lighter crowds, warmer waters and a knockout sunset. 

What A Dream

Perched on Portugal’s Atlantic coastline, this modern villa brings a sense of refinement to a region famous for its rugged and wild beauty. The home’s natural lighting, olive wood furniture, and large sofas all come together to provide the perfect atmosphere for rest and recovery whether you’re here to test the waters of one of the world’s great surf spots or tour the region’s natural and historical sites.

Here, you’ll find life moves seamlessly from inside to out. Waking after a refreshing sleep in your minimalist yet cosy bedroom, head out to the private terrace with a strong cup of coffee to take in the sweeping ocean views and plan your day. What will it be? A hike through the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, a daytrip to beautiful Lisbon, or an afternoon at the local beach?

For those less keen on venturing out, the villa’s infinity pool and lush garden make for the ideal mix of fun and relaxation. Enjoy cold drink on the pool-deck, barbecuing on the terrace, or simply unwinding with a book on the comfortable sun loungers. Come evening, the open-plan living and dining area makes the ideal social space to gather with family and friends for a pre-dinner drink and delicious homecooked meal. 


The Pink Wave

Parking On Premises

This extraordinary home on the Cascais Riviera blends sumptuous grandeur with bold, contemporary styling. Step into the octagonal, mahogany entrance hall and it’s immediately clear you are somewhere incredibly special. Each of the doors leads through to resplendent rooms. With its wood panelling, brick fireplace, and antique drinks trolley, the sultry drawing room is the perfect place to curl up on cosy evenings, sipping a cocktail and playing card games. This flows seamlessly into its perfect antithesis, the light, bright, modern living room, where you can kick back on the L-shaped sofa and admire the spectacular views of the sea through the sliding glass doors. 

The wraparound balcony boasts grand, pointed archways, stone colonnades and comfy outdoor seating, and is a lavish place to enjoy a glass of champagne or two when the sun sets. The six bedrooms are laid out across the first floor, with one in the converted attic. They have been designed with every comfort in mind, and five come with an en suite – we love the Wes Anderson worthy pink and mustard bathrooms. The main bedroom is the jewel in the crown of this home. With its wraparound glass windows, you’ll wake up every morning to panoramic views of the ocean. Step out onto the balcony first thing and you will feel all is right with the world.

On summer days, while away the hours reading a book in the manicured garden, cooling off with dips in the outdoor pool before an alfresco lunch on the terrace. For the fitness minded, a beautiful cycle path stretches from the superb Guincho Beach 9 kilometres away and passes directly in front of the villa, to Cascais, 1 kilometre away. Head into Cascais to sample delicious Portuguese fare at one of the excellent restaurants, or drink beer with the locals at a bar. With its unbeatable location and palatial interiors, this villa has all the elements of a truly unforgettable holiday.

Casa Mar

Paid Parking On Street

This pretty apartment is ideal for a small group of friends or family craving good times and great weather. It's situated in the coastal resort of Cascais, just a four-minute walk from the waterfront, where you can lounge on the sand and soak up the sun. You'll also find plenty of pretty cobbled streets to explore and charming cafés where you can do as the locals do and watch the world go by over a glass of Portuguese wine. The apartment itself is a cheerful space, with colourful artworks and comfortable furnishings that will make you feel right at home. You'll love cooking fresh seafood in the kitchen and serving your culinary creations outside on the private terrace. Plus, your host can even provide parasols, beach towels, childrens' amenities and extra cleaning services if you let them know in advance – so all you have to think about is which beach you want to visit first. 

Sunshine in a Bottle

Ceiling Fans

In the coastal resort town of Cascais, this bright and breezy apartment puts you within easy walking distance of the buzzing marina and soft-sanded beaches. It’s 200 meters (a two-minute walk) to the beach and Praça de Camões nightlife hub, and you’ll find fresh seafood restaurants and trendy bars overlooking the boats in the marina too. The apartment is in the charming old centre of town and is the ideal bolthole. Bright white walls lighten each room and boho touches – elephant throws, modern artworks, trinkets and Moroccan-style rugs –add a little charm. The real highlight is the shaded terrace, overlooking the orange roofs of Old Cascais. Out here you’ll find a dining set for four and a trellis adorned with flowering pot plants. It's a perfect spot for that welcome local bottle of wine that awaits your arrival.

Savour your stay at this stunning property with its irresistible combination of an unmatched coastal location, minimalist design and a relaxing dune garden with an inviting pool. The home comprises three separate units – one with a luxurious living space, one containing the main bedroom and a final module containing two additional bedrooms. While it might not be ideal for families with young children, it works exceptionally well for families with older kids and groups of friends.

Interior spaces vibe perfectly with the creative, barefoot bohemian character of Comporta. Think bleached wood, wicker furniture and earth tones that help you feel integrated into your surroundings. Each building has been designed to remove the barriers between you and the natural world, with large doors that swing out to provide seamless access to the central pool surrounded by sun loungers and a rustic pergola for outdoor dining in the shade.

The dune garden boardwalk gives way to wild beaches, with two of Comporta's best-known stretches of sand just a short walk away. Here, you can spend days soaking up the sun beneath cloudless skies, frolicking in the surf and exploring the ever-shifting sand dunes.

Cabanas da Comporta

Live the boho lifestyle in this charming villa, based close to Comporto beach and providing you with a serene resting spot for when you’re not out exploring. We adore the bohemian decor and characterful artwork, such as the coloured glass collection, woven fabrics and wicker furniture, which gives the home a warm and welcoming feel. You can spend sunny mornings out on your shaded terrace, with a large lounge area that makes for a great place for your morning coffee. You can cook up delicious chorizo scrambled eggs in your quaint kitchen area and tuck in alfresco at the shaded dining table. In the evenings, plant yourself in a deckchair with a glass of fizz, and watch the sunset over the fields in the distance.

This villa resides in a peaceful and rural spot in Comporta, an idyllic village that sits peacefully between rice fields and the ocean. You’ll be based just a stroll away from a 60km-long stretch of stunning beaches, and so ideally located for sea swimming, sunbathing, and spotting dolphins swimming off of the coast. It's easy to spend a whole day exploring the vibrant bars and fantastic restaurants that line the seafront.

Beachy Boho

Games Room

Foosball / Table Football

Private Parking

Nestled in gardens of lush pine and cork trees, this contemporary villa is where you can shed thoughts of the daily grind and embrace a slower pace of life. You'll have everything you need to while away the days – you won’t even have to leave. But if you start to get itchy feet, you’re close to the paradisiacal village of Comporta and its pristine beaches, surfing spots, and beachfront restaurants. Just hop on the bikes and explore.

Modern and striking, the gorgeous interior just about competes with the beauty of the outdoors. All rooms open up to the garden to let the fresh air in. Even the games room is bright and cosy – a welcoming space for good-spirited games of table football, or letting the kids entertain themselves with the games console. 

That said, we imagine you’ll spend most of your time making the most of the 8.5 hectares that this villa sits on. Start off your mornings with coffee in the early sunshine, then dabble in a spot of yoga in the garden. Succumb to lazy days of reading beside the overflowing pool, occasionally taking a dip in its crystalline waters to cool off. Enjoy lunchtimes beneath the shaded patio dining area, tucking into a meal from the barbecue.

As dinnertime rolls around, gather around the outdoor dining table and enjoy jugs of sangria, while the floodlights and starry sky light up the gardens. Don't feel like cooking? There's a fabulous restaurant just 200 metres away – or your host can arrange for a private chef to come and wow you with local dishes.

Pass to Paradise

Fenced Garden

This home is really made for spending time outdoors, with so many places to relax as the sun warms your skin. Overlooking your crystal blue pool is a delightful undercover seating area, so if you aren’t dining alfresco, you can pop your feet up on the comfortable white chaise with a glass of wine in hand. Venture inside and it’s just as charming – picture neutral colours, natural materials and wonderful open-plan spaces ideal for entertaining. We love the bedrooms, in particular – each has its own colour theme providing a calming effect to complement the tasteful modern artwork. 

On your way to the beach, just 2km away, crawl into the local restaurant for a spot of lunch. Comporta's coastlines are picturesque, perfect for lounging in the sand and catching the rays. After a day of soaking up the Portuguese sunshine, be sure to gather your loved ones around the built-in barbecue back at home for an evening watching the sunset and indulging in divine local ingredients. A beautiful contemporary villa with a relaxing zen feeling will be the backdrop to a wonderful holiday to remember. 

Woven in Magic

Embodying the bohemian spirit of Comporta, this shabby chic villa is a dream for nature lovers. Built with local wood and thatched roofs, it’s the ideal choice for those looking for an authentic experience in rural Comporta. Sitting on an impressive pine forest of twenty hectares, you can simply relax and soak up the idyllic natural surroundings. 

Inside, the villas are every bit as contemporary and stylish as you’d want from your getaway. Each bedroom is beautifully bright yet cosy, with comforting throws and arts and crafts made by local artisans. The charming living and kitchen space is just as lovely, with a laid-back beachy style and nods to the region as portrayed through handmade pieces and artwork. 

The home is beautiful, and it’s from the outside that you can really appreciate it. By taking a step back, the full magnitude of it comes into vision. Standing on a platform, encircled by towering pine trees, and featuring a charming wrap-around porch, the villa really is the picture of hippy-chic. Spend mornings exploring the grounds, listening to the chirps of the early birds, before spending blissful hours relaxing on a sun lounger. Time stands still here, while you catch up on your book and occasionally take dips in the pool, before challenging your group to an afternoon game of volleyball. 

Despite the rural surroundings, you’re just a few minutes drive from the picturesque town of Carvalhal. The sugary white sand beaches are just an eight-minute drive away too, where you can either watch the surfers or get on the waves yourself. There’s something special and nostalgic about exploring an area by cycling around – your host can provide you with a bike to discover the idyllic natural beauty of rice terraces, pristine beaches, and the forests of Comporta. 

Fairies of the Forest

Record Player

It's pretty clear what was at the top of the list for the architect that designed this intriguing home in Comporta – natural light and lots of it. Enormous walls of glass line the sides of the home and the dazzlingly white interior design only accentuates this plentiful natural asset. These huge windows also have the added benefit of looking out to peaceful views of local rice fields, too.

As you can probably begin to tell, it's a rather relaxing address. There are lots of spots in the tropical garden in which to appreciate the local tranquillity, whether on the back of a lounger or while dining alfresco on the table. Whenever the temperature takes a dip, you can head back inside and cosy up next to the contemporary fireplace in the lounge.

When it comes to seeing a little more of the locale, there are vast swathes of golden beaches covering the Portuguese coastline that start from as close as 1.5km away, while the nearest town is only 2km away for when you're in need of restaurants and shops.

Invisible Light

On the wild shores of Portugal’s Atlantic coast, the region of Comporta boasts golden sand dunes, abundant pine forests and miles of spectacular scenery. It’s also renowned for its signature small thatched cabanas – crafted with locally sourced wood and grasses from the riverbanks. And this home (just a short walk from the beach) perfectly embodies this rich tradition of craftsmanship and heritage. 

Consisting of multiple buildings nestled amongst the trees, the owners have designed this space to honour the unique spirit of its surroundings, whilst adding a range of luxurious features. From the art and objects to the natural tones and textures, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of calm. 

Enjoy relaxing by the fire in the large open-plan living and dining room, savour delicious meals prepared by your private chef and experience total serenity in the elegant bedrooms (each with its own bathroom). Follow the views outside and you’ll find the garden welcoming you to wander through the trees and savour a refreshing dip in the pool. And with multiple seating areas, this is the perfect setting for magical sunset drinks and barbecue meals that linger long into the evening. 

However you choose to spend your time here, every moment promises to be enriched by the natural beauty of this location. 

Golden Earth

Temperature Control

For bohemian beachside vibes and pristine nature, look no further than this charming four-bedroom villa, nestled between the Sado Estuary and the crashing surf of the Atlantic Ocean.

Thoughtfully designed and beautifully furnished, the villa's interior maintains plenty of period charm alongside a casual contemporary style. The open layout of the main multipurpose living area makes the most of the spectacular summer climate with large, south-facing sliding doors that open out onto an inviting poolside deck. 

Out here, you'll find plenty of sun loungers and parasols for day-long sunbathing sessions, plus a picnic table for light lunches overlooking the pool. Around the corner, further seating and dining options are in the shade of a wooden pergola.

Back inside, four nautically themed bedrooms offer a tranquil haven to retreat to at the end of the day, with both double rooms boasting en-suite bathrooms, and all benefitting from direct access to the immaculately maintained outdoor areas.

The area might only be around an hour south of Lisbon, but Comporta has been quietly flying under the radar over the years. CN Traveller recently picked it out as Portugal's best-kept secret spot. So kick off your shoes, plant your toes in the sand and come and see what the fuss is about.

This wonderful home is the kind you’ll fondly daydream about when you’re back at home, listening to drizzle patter against the windows. Everything you might want or need during your stay has been thought of in this luxurious and welcoming home, so you can focus on enjoying every last second of your break. 

The villa is bright and stylish, with decor and finishes that would be at home in an interior design magazine. It’s beautiful, with splashes of colour adding warmth and fun. You’ll wake up to feel the sunshine on your pillow, tempting you to head through the floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors outside to the terrace. Sip an espresso as you breathe in the warm, sweet-scented air. 

The outside space has been as thoughtfully considered as the house. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re a sun-worshipper or prefer to lounge in the shade. Table tennis will keep the big kids entertained, while you cool off in the refreshing solar-heated pool. There’s a gym inside, too, so you can easily get a workout in – though we might be more tempted by a yoga session on the terrace. 

When you want to explore further afield, you might stroll to Galé beach, or perhaps hop in the car to visit Troia. History buffs will enjoy seeing the Roman ruins at Cetobriga, while golfers might choose to stay closer to home – Troia Golf is a five-minute drive from the villa. This is truly a holiday home with something for everyone – you’ll never want to leave.  

Tranquil Sands Retreat

Private Dryer

Just a short distance from the wild and beautiful Atlantic coast, this whitewashed home opens its blue-shuttered doors to the majestic charm of Comporta. 

Set within an expansive garden and surrounded by pine trees, this is the perfect setting for a rejuvenating retreat – one that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired from the moment of arrival. And with a range of luxurious features alongside impeccable styling, you’ll find it easy to settle in and make this space your own. 

From the art and objects to the personal touches, every detail of this home has been considered to enrich daily living with comfort and ease. Follow the views outside and you’ll find the perfect setting for lazy days by the swimming pool, magical sunset drinks and al fresco meals. Your lovely host can also help arrange for a private chef to prepare a delicious Portuguese meal – inviting you to sit back and savour the beauty of this unique setting. And when you’re ready to retreat back inside, you’ll find the ensuite bedrooms set the tone for a restorative night’s sleep. 

When you’re inspired to explore beyond this private sanctuary, days can be spent embracing the waves on Praia dos Brejos beach, hiking through the surrounding countryside and discovering the natural beauty of the Alentejo region. 

Lotus Heart

Beach / Pool Towels

Wow your friends and family with a stay at this designer villa, quietly removed from the bustle of the West Coast's Comporta and yet just moments from the beach.

Inside, this place is a design lover's dream, with a chic dining room to host glamourous dinner parties and a high-style living room and adjoining library to beat the heat with afternoon reads and slumbers. While over in the bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms, curated art and splashes of azure blue add layers of interest and style.

But it's outside, hopping between the vast palm-fringed terraces and one-of-a-kind saltwater pool, where we think you'll be spending most of your time. Sneak away to the shady pergola for a cheeky siesta – the soft burbling of the contemporary water feature should help you drift off nicely. And when it's time to get your ensemble together, that covered veranda (with heaps of room for you and some guests) has sundowners written all over it.

When the sea finally lures you in, Comporta's shores, backed by wild grass-tufted sand dunes (just over one kilometre away), deliver all the cool, beach-shack vibes you're chasing. Or, for a complete change of pace, hop in the car for a day out in Lisbon – it's closer than you think.

Wild West Coast

Children's Dinnerware

Some homes feel like a work of art, and this striking villa is one of them. Perfectly embodying the bohemian spirit of Comporta while incorporating angular, valued ceilings and contemporary touches, this home is a gem of a find. 

Firstly, we’re in awe of the spectacular garden. Nestled on your own private land, surrounded by verdant pine trees and nature, relaxing comes with ease. Out here, the hours whittle away while you’re relaxing on the sun loungers, taking a dip in the heated pool, catching up on your book on the bean bags, and taking in the scenery. When lunchtime rolls around, grill up a feast of local produce on the barbecue and gather around the pergola-covered bench-style dining table. 

Inside lends itself to any occasion, with the huge windows flooding the home with natural light and the scent of crisp pine hanging in the air. But in the evenings, the fireplace and warm-toned lighting make for wonderful cosy nights spent watching films. And with stylish yet comfortable bedrooms, all of which lead out to the garden, and super sleek bathrooms, the villa continues to impress.

When you want to get out and explore this beautiful slice of Portugal, you’re just 5km from the closest beach and its surfing spots, beachfront restaurants, and sugary white sand. The town is even closer, just 2km away, where you’ll find an array of restaurants and bars. But if you want to make the most of your villa but cooking is off the cards, your host can arrange for a private chef to take care of dinner for you. 

Comporta Dreaming

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

Among the picture-perfect rice fields and close to the River Sado, you’ll find this truly unique home. Comprising three fisherman-style huts, don’t let the rustic exterior deceive you – a luxurious living experience awaits inside. 

Showcasing plenty of country charm and cosy touches, this home is perfect for family life. Boasting multiple lounge areas, outdoor seating and even a treehouse, there's plenty of space to spread out and relax.

When you do fancy a day out, explore the local nature spots of Comporta, or jump in the car and head to Praia da Comporta to enjoy the turquoise waters and white sand – it's just over 4km away. When you return, rustle up a fresh seafood dinner on the barbecue, and eat together alfresco under the pergola with a bottle of Portuguese wine. Don’t feel like cooking? Hire a private chef for the evening and relax while tasting some of the local delicacies of northwest Portugal.

Post-dinner, retire to the fire pit to toast marshmallows and watch the sunset over the fields, or indulge in an evening swim in the private swimming pool. 

River & Rice Fields

Herb Garden

Umbrellas

If we were to tell you of a hideaway that sits in the middle of twelve hectares of lush pine forest in rural Comporta, you might imagine a certain type of home and we're willing to wager that it doesn't look anything like this wonderfully modern residence.

Not only does the boxy white exterior look visually striking from the outside, but this sense of awe will continue as you step through the glass doors. Our favourite space is the double-height living, which is flooded with natural light from the copious number of windows that line the walls. However, the modern brown kitchen and equally glossy bathrooms are sure to take your breath away, as well. The design throughout feels cohesive, united by a preference for clean lines, sleek surfaces and chic minimalism.

Given the agreeable climate that this corner of the Iberian peninsula enjoys, you'll likely want to spend as many hours outdoors as possible and that's easy to do here. The long infinity swimming pool is both wonderfully refreshing when the midday sun is at its highest and made all the more relaxing by the heady scent of fragrant herbs and vegetation that grow around the sides. There are plenty of terraces and balconies on which to take a seat and do nothing more strenuous than soak up the rays, but you can also find a tennis court if you fancy a match or two.

Although there's a strong sense of tranquillity from the isolated position, you don't have to venture far to find the Portuguese coastline. Carvalhal and Pego beaches can be reached in ten minutes or so in the car, and there are a few restaurants and bars to be found close to these seaside spots.


Finesse in the Forest

Shared Pool

Characterised by stretches of calming white walls accented by carefully restored original wooden beams, this characterful home in the beautiful Portuguese coastal town of Carvalhal offers you everything you could need for a one-of-a-kind retreat into the unspoiled nature of the area. It also provides you with a stylish base from which to begin your perusal of Portugal. Offering high ceilings, a range of high-spec amenities, and a beguiling blend of traditional Portuguese features with modern touches, this home feels comfortable, cosy, and entirely at home in its environment just a few moments from the popular beaches of Carvalhal.

Awake feeling relaxed and refreshed in the restful bedrooms, before stepping straight out onto one of the many terraces for a breath of fresh sea air. Then it’s into the brightly mosaiced kitchen for a bit of breakfast. Or perhaps you'd rather take it to the outdoor seating area and enjoy it lounging next to the pool before a quick morning dip? The soft sand beaches of Carvahal are within easy reach too, so don’t miss out on the opportunity to soak up some of the almost guaranteed sunshine with a day spent beside the surf.

No matter how your days here might look, we think that this home provides the perfect place for rest, relaxation, and feeling a million miles from the usual stresses and strains of everyday life. After all, how could you look out over that fabulous expanse of unspoiled 'mato' and feel anything other than calm and at one with nature?
