Monthly Rentals in Vila Nova de Poiares

Luis and his family were incredibly hospitable! Luis greeted us on arrival and gave a wonderful historical tour of the property and surrounding village. Luis’s mother and father who live on site, were very attentive to our stay & asked if we’d like fresh bread delivered everyday, which we very much appreciated and enjoyed. The home was well stocked and had every amenity you need! Although the home was a little further outside of Coimbra than we anticipated, the much needed peace and quiet was welcomed. The area felt so safe and many locals in town left their keys right in the front door as we walked by! We found a nearby flowing river that was walkable from the home and just wow! What a beautiful hidden gem! We highly recommend this host and property!

A great peaceful place to stay away from city frenzy but still not too far away (by car) from Coimbra. The house was even better than what photos convey. It had lots of space.

We loved our stay at Graça’s. She was very kind, gave us restaurant recommendations, and even booked our reservation for lunch. After spending the last several days in a busier city, we really enjoyed the slower pace Lousa had to offer. The location was perfect- we could easily walk into town or take a walking path to the castle nearby. We also hiked to a beautiful Schist Village (Talasnal) which was about 2.5 miles from the house. The kitchen was perfect and we really enjoyed eating our breakfast on the patio both mornings. We’d highly recommend staying here. Obrigada, Graça.

Beautiful view. Great place to think and relax.
