Habitação com boas comodidades, bem equipada, apreciei o aproveitamento de afloramentos graniticos encaixados na habitação. Ótima piscina e zona de apoio. É percetível que a casa vai fazer parte de um aglomerado turistico mais alargado, com obras...

Casa do Guarda Rios
Two-Storey Country Home by the River – A Serene Nature Retreat A very comfortable two-storey property, with generous spaces and a warm, welcoming décor. Located by a river beach with privileged views over a tributary of the Mondego River, this is a true nature retreat — ideal for couples or families looking for a peaceful getaway with their furry friends. Enjoy outdoor activities, scenic walks, a private jacuzzi, and the possibility of accessing a private swimming pool upon prior booking and subject to availability. The house is an invitation to reconnect with nature — a serene refugee where time slows down and life’s essentials take the center stage.
I’m delighted to welcome you to this special place! Although I don’t live in Ponte Nova, I’m deeply passionate about the region and the simple, genuine rhythm of village life. What I value most in hosting our guests is tranquility and freedom — here, each person can enjoy their time and space in complete privacy, without interruptions. I hope you feel at home and that this experience becomes an inspiring pause — where comfort, authenticity, and the beauty of rural life come together.
Just a few minutes from the house lies Ponte Nova’s river beach, the perfect spot to relax by the water. For walking enthusiasts, the “Ponte Nova → Altos da Ponte Nova” trail offers gentle slopes and beautiful rural landscapes —ideal for a late-afternoon stroll. If you enjoy a touch of history, visit the main parish church and the Chapel of Saint Anthony, and admire the 16th-century houses with their Manueline-style windows — a genuine window into the past. To experience local authenticity, head to Penedo Massorro, an emblematic hill of the parish, or take part in the traditional blessing of the herds, if your stay coincides with the event (usually in early July during the festival of Santo António). Inside our house, you will find information on various programs that can be done independently: from trails and outdoor walks to visits to small factories and local craft workshops.
