Beschreibung
Come and join us in the heart of Portugal, close to the Dão River.
We live on a Quinta that used to be a hidden camping spot, surrounded by forest with the river just nearby. When we first arrived, the place was quite overgrown and almost forgotten. It is remote, fully off-grid, with water from our well and energy from the sun.
Together with family, friends, and volunteers we are slowly bringing this place back to life, step by step. There is a lot of potential here, space for creativity, new ideas, and hands-on work.
If you enjoy nature, simple living, and being part of something that is growing, you will feel very at home here.

Meals can be prepared anytime in our community kitchen.
The kitchen and garden give a good base for daily food.
We always keep it stocked with staples for everyday cooking and breakfast, and we also have fresh herbs and seasonal vegetables/ fruits from our garden.
On work days, meals are often shared and we come together to cook and eat.
At the weekend there are no fixed shared meals, so everyone is free to cook for themselves, relax, or go out and explore the region.

Camper welcome! You can park your van on a private terrace right next to the river.

There are the old camping facilities nearby you can use. Discover central portugal on the weekends-off!
