The website is very good but I can see that it is not possible to use words to describe the feeling you get by actually being here....

Vale Lourenço south of the peak of the Parque Natural da Serra de São Mamede |
The Sawday guide says: A house of surprises. Low and whitewashed, clinging by its toes to the hillside, it opens up to reveal vast sunny spaces with breathtaking views over the gentle slopes of the São Lourenço valley...

The picture shows the entrance to the cottage yet the house extends below with views down to the mountain stream. This was originally two country cottages owned by brothers who milled wheat with a water mill (azenha) powered with water supplied by a man made water channel called a levada. This is typical of how life used to be in these hills of Portugal. The main part of the cottage occupies the gap between the two cottages and the terrace below them which once contained the levada.
This is a secluded self-contained holiday home in Portugal. A rural country cottage in a secret place in Portugal's natural Alentejo region.
