The Quinta das Canas is situated on the top of the hill, overlooking the Mondego Valley. The traditionally built farmhouse, with large granite stones, is newly renovated in a minimalistic style, with 'Pedra Vista' walls, cosy furniture, Portuguese tiles and modern comfort. It has 2 bedrooms with either twin beds or a double bed, for 2 persons each. They share the bathroom, with shower, toilet and washbasin. The open plan living room and kitchen/dining room are divided by a small platform, with high ceiling, giving it a spacious feel. There is a fenced garden with sunbeds and picnic table, overlooking the olive grove. From the house there is direct access to the dirt roads on the Domain, leading to the river Mondego, a private path of about 1,5 km. At 200 meters distance is a large (20 x 8 meters) water basin with water from the river, great to swim. 200 m further is the Lagar, with table d'hote restaurant & terraces.
