Quinta da Formigueira, where Casas do Ameal are located, has an area of nearly ten hectares, full of oaks, pines, chestnut trees, vine, orchards, a very aged olive yard and some horticultural products.

The entire environment invites to relaxing walks and ramblings, to peaceful readings at the shadow of any tree of the forest, garden or, even, on the bank of Ribeira de Paços, scented with the fresh fragrance of willows and poplars scattered all around.

Quinta da Formigueirta offers a privileged view of the mountains and a stunning sight of the hills covered with immaculate snow. This colourful landscape is meandered by footpaths, as well as, by paths for 4-wheel vehicles.

An earth path, with accessibility to Torre, to ski slopes or to Penhas Douradas, begins near the entrance to Quinta da Formigueira. The use of all-terrain bikes provides a unique and magic drive, with outstanding sights of the mountain, and also exhilarating action and adrenalin.

Casas do Ameal are equipped with eight rooms and a suite, all of them with private bathroom, air conditioner, television and telephone, (hairdryer when requested). The guests will take advantage of spacious game and reading rooms and, outside, they may sunbathe beside an excellent salt water swimming pool. Casas do Ameal also offer picturesque footpaths and a very attractive playground for the children.

This striking offer aims at connecting ruralism to the modern comfort. Join us and have a nice stay.
