Holiday house

Casa Escola Velha


Are you looking for a relaxing holiday in central Portugal? In the small rural village of Eirigo, near Mortágua, I offer you three holiday homes, Casa Adega, Casa Escola Velha and Casa Laranjeira. Each house has its own character. In Eirigo you will experience the relaxed and friendly atmosphere of rural Portugal and enjoy the tranquility of nature. Mortágua offers typical Portuguese dishes and the best wines. It is also the perfect starting point for day trips to the high mountains of Serra de Estrela and Caramulo, the sunny beaches of Costa Nova and Figueira da Foz and the beautiful cities of Coimbra, Aveiro and Viseu.

The houses are situated around a central garden with swimming pool and olive grove. All houses also have their own outdoor space, with dining table and sitting area. In the garden you can see original “espigueiros”, the traditional wooden maize barns.

Casa 'Escola Velha' (The Old School) is over a hundred years old. As the name suggests, it was a small school for the village until 1956. Some of the current villagers even went to primary school there. Since then it has been used as a communal space for dance evenings, theater and the like. In recent decades it has fallen into disrepair, but was completely renovated in 2021. This house is built entirely of xisto (slate) stone from a local quarry. Large white quartz stones, typical of the area, have been incorporated into the walls. All rooms have stone exterior walls, which gives it a very rustic feel. The house has two outdoor areas. A terrace connected to the kitchen, with sofas and lounge chairs and overlooking the valley and the mountain ranges in the distance. The second outdoor area is a partially terraced garden surrounded by stone walls. It has a BBQ, lounge chairs, dining table and a small path leading to the edge of the village. This home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It can accommodate up to 6 guests. The rental price includes use of all common areas and the swimming pool.

Hello, I'm Johan and I've been living in Portugal since 2016, together with my partner and three cats. In 2021 I started renting out three restored houses in the lovely village of Eirigo. Since the spring of 2023, a beautiful fourth home has been added!

Explanation of prices

Within a week after making a reservation, we ask for a deposit of 30% of the total amount. Four weeks before arrival we ask for the remaining 70%. Payments are non-refundable, but you can always change the booking to another available period, possibly settled according to the then applicable rates.

The prices are the same for the 3 houses. The prices include tourist tax, WiFi and use of the facilities. The houses are self-sufficient, so meals are not included.

In cold periods the pellet stove can be used. This is filled with pellet pellets for free, plus 1 extra bag for free. If you want to use more bags, you have to buy them yourself and at your own expense (this can easily be done at the local supermarket)
