The Vale do Mondego is situated in the Serra da Estrela, the largest nature park of Portugal. The Domain is a working organic farm, consisting of several Quinta’s (authentic Portuguese farms), the Lagar (table d’hote restaurant) with terrace and swimming pool. One can walk for hours on our own terrain of 33,3 hectares, with historic terraces, large pastures, wood, olive groves, orchards with apple, pear, cherry and fig trees and a large herb and vegetable garden. A dirt road leads to the secluded Domain, a beautiful and very private location in the green valley along the river Mondego. The region is famous for its nature walks and historic villages.
