Located on a resort close to Montemor-o-Novo, this contemporary villa offers tranquil views of the nearby lake and its own private pool. The interior is very minimal and might not be to everyone's taste, but the large windows ensure you'll get plenty of natural light. The surrounding area is sprawling with hiking trails and wildlife walks, so there's plenty to do if you want to stay active. We recommend hiring a car here for heading into the nearby town and visiting the local wineries and vineyards.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
