    Description

    Me, Barbara, Portuguese (37), Tiago(39), Alice (9), Santiago (3), 2 dogs and 3 chickens all live in a beautiful 5 ha farm in Vale de Prazeres Central Portugal.

    Currently we are growing some vegetables and planting fruit trees and trying our best to make the farm as sustainable as possible. Lots to plan, clean the vegetation, wanting to nurture the soil, create some beautiful pathways, prune trees in need.

    We have a very nice caravan and a dry toilet with shower(just being finished) for our guests to stay on with enough privacy, internet available and TV, mini fridge and kitchenette.

    If you would like to come for a visit or to help us out and give us some ideas we would be very grateful. Ideal stays are 1 to 4 weeks.
