Casa Sandra - New Barbecue suite and garden amenities added!!
Villa with 4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 10, Garden, Swimming Pool
Casa Sandra is a large villa set in half an acre with a private pool newly constructed in 2003. It rests in the quiet centre of Portugal near Tomar where the weather is fantastic, the food and wine excellent (and cheap) and the soft nature of the Portuguese people make this an exceptional place to be.
It has four large bedrooms, ensuite for the master bedroom, large family bathroom, three showers, large kitchen, lounge, utility room, storage room and study.
Two bedrooms contain double beds, One with two singles and one with two double bunk beds. There is ample wardrobe space and cots are also available. The Casa has two large verandas front and rear ideal for that lunchtime or evening meal.
The driveway sweeps up from the road right round the back of the house. There is ample parking and turning space.
The large pool area is situated at the far side of the casa and is fully enclosed, completely private and for safety reasons only accessable via gates that are either lockable or have sliding bolts.
The casa is situated about 12 minutes away (walking) from Paço da Comenda, a small village with two very nice restaurants, two mini markets and a bar cafe.
Tomar is about 15 minutes by car and is quite a large town with it's own cinema, supermarkets and fabulous market. market day is Friday.
The west coast is about an hour and a half drive but well worth a trip. It's quite lively with lots to see and do.
Around the Tomar area and in Tomar itself there are many places to visit including Fátima and Dornes, the latter presenting some outstanding views.
Every Friday in Tomar there is an enormous market where local produce is sold as well as just about anything else you can think of.
The year is punctuated with social events, jazz, dance and local handicraft festivals and gastronomic delights such as the soup festival in May when more than 60 soups can be sampled along with local wines.
At Easter there are boating events at Constancia with traditional and modern craft, making a fascinating pageant.

Local activities in and around Tomar, Costa de Prata
Throughout the summer there are local festivals, always accompanied by barbecued chicken, fish frequently accompanied by live music and other entertainments. These are flavoured by the fresh evening air and continue well into the next morning.
Then, in October there are dried fruit festivals with an unbelievable range of dried fruits and nuts to store for the winter. Then later in the month there is a national equestrian event at Golegã where both the horses and the riders provide a spectacle to delight.
There are castles, potteries, dinosaur footprints and beautiful caves plus an antique olive press museum to see. There are donkey rides and water sports; horse riding, golf, wine tasting and good food and drinks amongst very friendly people.
Full directions are provided on booking, but in general this is an easy place to get to from either Lisbon or Porto Airports. From either just take the A1, north from Lisbon and south from Porto.
