A little further down the road is the world heritage site in Tomar, Or the historical university city of Coimbra just a 35 minute drive north. As a rural holiday let we must advice that there are areas of uneven ground, hence we can not provide specific access for the infirm. The tent is situated on the lower terrace and involves an at times steep walk from the car through the vineyard to the secluded terrace. Own transport is advisable to make the most of your stay but we can arrange pick ups from the local town. We have plenty of safe parking available around 150 metres from the tent. We are only a short walk down to the lake, and a 30 minute walk to high quality restaurants, cafes and a river beach with a bar/cafe. Please bring with you drinking water, although we provide some. Be aware that the refrigerator and freezer are in a shared space. A coolbox is provided with ice blocks that can we swapped over daily. There is lighting in the tent and bathroom, but please bring torches to help light your way as it is very dark if you return to site at night. The star gazing is amazing though! Please be aware that we provide bed linens but do not provide towels, as the washing load would be too much for our off-grid system. The access to the property is down a dirt track which is a little bumpy in places.

Dragonfly Bell Tent, eco living with River Views

Beautiful setting with stunning views of the  Zezere River. If you’re looking to get off-grid and go camping in a comfortable way this ticks the boxes and has pretty much everything you’ll need. One small thing to mention (not a problem for most but some might like to know) is that the owner has two very friendly dogs who share the outside space.
