    I really needed to get away from the stress of work and modern society in general and boy did this property help me find that inner peace again. Cal Velho is really out in the middle of nowhere, with a terrace facing east that allows you to enjoy...

This home has everything you need for a comfortable stay, including good matresses. The kitchen is well equipped. There is a small library and you are welcome to take a book/leave a book. We also have games and videos (you will need to link your portabale pc to the TV screen for this) and lots of CDs or a portable bluetooth loudspeaker to play your own music . Outdoors has a lawn, flowerbeds, pool, sunbathing chairs, BBQ and a fantastic view of the hills. Sunrise is particularly beautiful and can be seen from your bed! Bed linen and towels are provided at no extra cost. The property has several dogs that normally stay at the house they belong to, but Molly, a very sweet and friendly medium sized dog, likes to run around the land and visit guests. She jumps the fence and is off. They only way to stop her visiting guests is to tie her up, which is cruel, so we let her roam around free.
I am British and have been living in Portugal for over 40 years. I spend my time between Parede, on the Lisbon-Cascais coast and in Alentejo, also near the coast. I have a family and 3 dogs! I have lived in quite a few countries and speak fluent English, Portuguese and French. I was brought up in Africa and France. Alentejo is the closest I could find to Africa in Portugal. It is a beautiful and peaceful place to visit. I live in this house when it is not rented, so you will find everything you need for a comfortable holiday. The house will be all yours, but the host will be nearby if you need any help. The house is on a 6,5 hectares property , with an endless view of the rolling hills , a garden with lawn, and a pool....and Molly, one of our friendly dogs, who likes to visit guests outdoors. She jumps the fence and is off. The only way to stop her visiting guests is to tie her up, which is cruel, so we let her roam around free. The area also has lots of places to go walking too.
The house is located on the outskirts of a small rural village. Shopping is a 5 min drive to small local supermarket and 10 mins to Intermarche/Lidl. Good restaurants within 10 minutes. Beautiful beaches within 20-30 mins drive. Nature walks from the house as we are surrounded by nature. No pollution, no noise, except birds, frogs, animals and cicadas and brilliant stars at night!
