Holiday house

Casa do Serrador


This detached house is located on the edge of the village of Pinheiros, just north of the historic town of Tomar.
You are here in the heart of Portugal surrounded by hills with olive groves and vineyards.
The central location is ideal for day trips to Lisbon, Porto and Coimbra or to the famous surfing beach of Nazaré. There are also several natural river beaches in the vicinity.

Large grounds around the house
The holiday home stands on a piece of land of about 1.5 hectares full of fruit trees. A wonderful place to relax and enjoy the nature around you.

At some distance from the holiday home is a second house where the owner occasionally goes on holiday. However, due to the architectural style of both houses and a lockable gate, you always have a lot of privacy.

For more than 20 years we have been regularly holidaying in our house in Portugal.
There are 2 houses on the property and we ourselves occasionally stay in one of the two houses. We rent out the other house.
Because of the way the houses are built and the distance between them, you are always assured of a lot of space and privacy.
We hope you enjoy the Portuguese countryside as much as we do.

Het Convento de Cristo in Tomar is wereldberoemd en Unesco werelderfgoed. Het klooster ligt hoog bovenop de heuvel aan de rand van het oude centrum. Je kunt er uren rondlopen door de vele gebouwen en binnenpleinen. In de zomer altijd heerlijk koel.
Tomar heeft een leuk oud centrum met restaurants en cafés en een grote markt op vrijdag.
Environment
Directly from your front door you can take many beautiful walks. There is a map available in the house with some closeby walks.
Also the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostella runs right behind the house.
Many more hikes are possible in the vicinity. More information can be found in the leaflets in the house.
You can visit natural parcs, historical Roman sites and the big lake with its big dams.
You could also visit the beautiful cities of Porto and Lisbon as a daytrip.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SWIM
You can swim in several rivers and lakes in the vicinity. Or even in the open air pool in Tomar.
You could take the nice walk from the house to Sobreirinho and have a lovely swim in the river.
And there is another beautiful 45 minute walk through the hills to Agroal, where you can take a refreshing swim in a natural pool with spring water. In high summer this place attracts many Portuguese families. You can have a nice lunch or diner here too. Agroal is an experience, in the summer because of the real Portuguese buzz and in the other seasons just because it is so very beautiful and quiet.
Also nearby is the large lake of Castelo do Bode, with lovely calm swimming water and water sports.

VISIT THE ATLANTIC COAST
Want to visit the seaside? It is only an hours drive to the Atlantic coast with places like like Nazaré, São Martinho do Porto and São Pedro de Moel.
But be careful, because the Atlantic Ocean is rough and you need to look for the calmer bays to enjoy your swim.

THE NEAREST HISTORICAL CITY: TOMAR
10 km from your holiday home is the nearest provincial town of Tomar, with its narrow streets and old town. You can wander through the old streets and spend hours in the beautiful Convento de Cristo (a Unesco World Heritage Monument). This is a famous and huge castle and monastery founded by the Knights Templar. It was built on a hill overlooking the city and the surroundings. Sometimes there are performances inside the castle.
Furthermore, Tomar has many facilities, such as supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, and lots of pastelarias, where you can enjoy the splendid sweet cakes of Portugal.
It has a trainstation and a busstation. There are taxis, you can rent a car and it has a nice park. The train will get you to the centre of Lisbon within 2 hours.
Tomar also has a large and lively market every Friday.
 
NEARBY MARKET OF CHÃOS
Every Sunday there is a small market in Chãos, which is a nearby village. Here you can eat or take away the famous Portugues grilled 'flat' chicken. And of course you can have a drink on the terrace or visit the local cafe.

HISTORICAL CITY OF COIMBRA
About 50 kilometers north you will find the ancient university city of Coimbra with a famous library.
And a few kilometers to the south of Coimbra you will find Conimbriga, an excavated Roman city, whose old cobbled streets and city gate still are in good condition.

OTHER PLACES OF INTEREST
Fátima, the famous pilgrimage site.
Ourém, a beautiful small walled town.
Batalha with a unique cathedral.
The caves in the Serra de Aire.
The Castelo de Almourol, a castle on an island in the Tagus.
Óbidos, a beautiful walled town.
These are just some of the many possibilities for day trips or sightseeing.
And of course there are concerts and fado evenings in the area.
Op 10 minuten rijden ligt de bron van Agroal. Er is een prachtig natuurzwembad gebouwd. En u zwemt er dus in puur bronwater.
Er is een café-restaurant en in augustus als het er druk is met Portugese families zijn er typische badplaats stalletjes.
Nazaré: geliefd bij surfers vanwege de indrukwekkend hoge golven en bij binnen- en buitenlandse toeristen vanwege de brede zandstraden, prachtige uitzichten vanaf de hoge clif op de Atlantische kust en het grote aantal visrestaurants.
