Casa Carmo Alexandre! Your Modern-Medieval Home!

Welcome to our charming short-term vacation rental villa in Tore, Portugal! Nestled in the picturesque countryside, our villa is the perfect destination for a delightful and unforgettable getaway. With its serene surroundings and close proximity to renowned attractions such as the Bathalha Monastery, Fatima, Nazare, and Obidos, our villa offers a truly enchanting experience.

Step into our historic stone villa, where rustic-chic meets modern comfort. Immerse yourself in the rich history of the area as you walk the same cobbled streets that were once traversed by merchants, monks, and peasants. Our villa, built during the time of the famous Batalha Monastery, stands as a testament to the past. Constructed with the same stone used in the monastery, it is one of the few remaining medieval Gothic stone houses in the region.

Over the years, our family has lovingly preserved the villa's historic integrity while ensuring it provides every modern convenience. Recently refurbished, the villa seamlessly combines the allure of its past with the comfort and coziness you desire. You will be captivated by its stunning architecture, quirky details, and sophisticated ambiance.

When you choose our villa, you'll find yourself perfectly situated to explore the wonders of Tore and its neighboring treasures. After a day of adventure, return to the tranquility of our villa, where you can unwind and recharge. Whether you're touring the breathtaking Bathalha Monastery, seeking solace in the spiritual center of Fatima, relaxing on the sandy beaches of Nazare, or strolling through the enchanting streets of Obidos, our villa serves as your idyllic retreat.

As our guest, you'll appreciate the seamless blend of historic charm and modern comforts. With four bedrooms, our villa can comfortably accommodate your family or group, offering a peaceful haven for relaxation and rejuvenation. The serene ambiance of the surrounding hills and the quiet little hamlet in which we are nestled will melt your heart and provide a respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

To make your stay even more enjoyable, we provide convenient parking right in front of the villa, ensuring easy access throughout your visit. Our knowledgeable and friendly staff are also available to assist you, providing recommendations on local attractions, dining options, and activities that will enhance your experience.

We invite you to experience the magic of our short-term vacation rental villa in Tore, Portugal. Let us be your home away from home, where history meets comfort, and every moment is filled with tranquility and wonder. Book your stay with us today and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Host was unresponsive and address incorrect
DO NOT BOOK THIS VRBO. We spent over 6 hours driving around tying to find the incorrect/incomplete address the host sent us. I can’t begin to tell you how frustrating this is experience was. VRBO also tried to reach the host with no response!

Beautiful place
We loved our stay. I was a little confused at times who I should be communicating with regarding property issues and we had some miscommunications but they were accommodating and understanding with our special circumstances. Fantastic place. Beautifully decorated. The neighbors were awesome and welcoming since we stayed for over a month.
