Notes:

On the Estate live 2 Dutch families with 6 children aged 4 to 16. Eelco is expert on organic farming. The farm has a large flock of the typical Serra da Estrela sheep (160). In our own dairy we make the famous Serra da Estrela cheese. There are large olive groves on the Estate, from which a tasty olive-oil is produced. Organic vegetables and fruit are also grown and for sale. There are great walks on the Estate, along a centuries old path with historic water basins. For children it is great to walk with the donkey. For fanatic walkers the Serra da Estrela region has many long distance walking trails. With our Land rover we can drop you off in the middle of the park. The river with an abundance of water and its pebble beach is great for swimming and fishing. Emely is a gourmet cook, and a few times a week she prepares family-dinners with fresh ingredients from our garden, served on the terrace of the Cantina. Guests may use the open air Atelier for painting, sculpting and mosaicing.
