The Ribatejo region has traditionally been an agricultural area with many vineyards. The river Tagus and Zêzere flow through the area and the latter was flooded in the '50s to create Castelo do Bode, a huge reservoir that provides water to most of the Lisbon area. Above the dam the Castelo do Bode lake lies nestled in a valley full of pine and eucalyptus forests dotted with isolated villages.The valley is a secluded area popular for boating, fishing and watersports. Portugal has a wonderfully mild climate and despite wet winters it never gets very cold. The summers can be hot but there is usually an Atlantic breeze that provides relief. The house is right by the Lake Castelo do Bode (Castle of the Billygoat). The area is very green and the countryside is extremely peaceful. There are plenty of fluvial beaches - the water is very clean, ideal for swimming and certainly good for cooling off in the summer.

Swimming
Castelo do Bode (castle of the billy goat) lake is 300m away. The water is refreshingly cool in the summer and it is wonderful to swim in it. There are plenty of fluvial beaches to choose from and there is a map in the house. They are all very close. Fishing is also possible and there are boat hire facilities in Ferreira do Zêzêre, approximately 20 mins by car.
Cycling
The Ribatejo countryside is unexplored and there are plenty of tracks you can follow. There are two bicycles in the garage that are freely available for guests' use. It's an ideal way of exploring the countryside.
Sightseeing
Tomar, the historical town of the Order of the Templars is a short drive away. The Convent of Christ on the hilltop is a must. The Sanctuary of Fátima, holy place of pilgrimage is around 30kms away. Castelo de Almoural, set on a tiny island of the Tagus was built as a fortress in 1171. Lovely spot for a picnic. Torres Novas has many fine churches within its castle walls. There are many small villages around the lake that are worth visiting such as Dornes, a UNESCO protected village and Constância, right on the banks of the River Tagus.
