Charming Quinta da Alcaidaria
Overview
Situated on the road to Tomar, just a few kilometres outside Ourem is the Infanta Room. It´s located in a 17th century Manor House on the 17 acre property of the historical Quinta da Alcaidaria Mor. This is a delightful guesthouse with a welcoming atmosphere, ideal for a relaxing rural retreat within easy reach of some of Portugal’s most historic towns and important Christian monuments such as Tomar, Ourem, Fatima. The Manor House is set in a 17th Century country house, typical of this region of Portugal, which has remained in the same family to this day. It has plenty of historic legacies, having featured in the Napoleonic Invasions and the Order of Malta, and Nuno Álvares Pereira is said to have prayed in the small chapel on the property in 1385. The main house has seven double bedrooms. All are en-suite with central heating and are tastefully decorated with antique beds and period furniture.

The swimming pool is located in the patio in front of the Main House and there´s a nice bar/lounge with free wi-fi access and play pool, ping pong, have a glass of wine with a snack or just simply relax or read a book on the terrace overlooking the countryside with the sheep.
