Meticulously Restored Portuguese Country House Immersed in Nature and Tradition

Welcome to Terra Verde, a thoughtfully restored 18th-century country house nestled in the heart of Central Portugal. This exclusive retreat seamlessly blends historic charm with modern comforts, offering an idyllic setting for families, friends, and groups seeking a meaningful escape.​

Terra Verde is available for private hire from two guests upwards. Pricing is for two guests, with a supplementary fee for each additional guest. Your stay is fully exclusive: even with two people, you’ll have the entire property to yourselves. Only our housekeeping team—and, if requested, private chefs—will enter at pre-agreed times for cleaning or meal service.

Accommodation & Comfort

Terra Verde's seven elegantly appointed bedrooms accommodate up to 16 guests. Each room features premium hybrid mattresses, high-quality cotton linens, and flexible bed configurations to suit your group's needs. The design emphasizes both comfort and character, with restored antique furnishings and curated décor that reflect the home's rich history.​



Design & Décor

Every corner of Terra Verde tells a story. The restoration preserves the soul of the house, showcasing original wooden furniture, handcrafted details, and vintage artifacts discovered during the renovation. The ambiance is one of understated elegance, inviting guests to relax and connect in a space where past and present harmoniously coexist.​


Culinary Delights

At Terra Verde, dining is an experience to be savored. Guests can choose to cook in the fully equipped kitchen, enjoy meals prepared by a private chef, or explore local restaurants with our takeaway and delivery options. Our culinary offerings emphasize fresh, locally sourced ingredients, providing a true farm-to-table experience.​


Experiences & Activities

Terra Verde is more than just a place to stay—it's a destination for enriching experiences. Engage in on-site activities like yoga, meditation, art workshops, and guided hikes. The surrounding region offers opportunities for cycling, exploring medieval towns, and immersing yourself in Portugal's natural beauty.​

Flexible Spaces

Our adaptable indoor and outdoor spaces cater to various group activities. Whether you're hosting a workshop, celebrating a special occasion, or simply gathering with loved ones, Terra Verde provides the perfect backdrop. Spaces include a tea room, art studio, game room, and serene gardens designed for relaxation and connection.​

Peaceful Gardens Full of Character

Terra Verde’s gardens are filled with charm—quiet corners, lush greenery, and beautifully designed spaces that invite relaxation. Beneath the towering Linden Tree, guests can stretch out on garden beds and enjoy the dappled light filtering through the leaves.

Tucked-away spots like the Bamboo Garden and Oriental Corner offer unique spaces to unwind. Whether nestled in bamboo shade or settled among stone and wood seating, these intimate nooks are perfect for reading, daydreaming, or simply soaking in the stillness of nature.


Modern Amenities

While embracing its historic roots, Terra Verde offers modern conveniences such as high-speed Wi-Fi, USB charging stations, and eco-friendly spring-water-fed showers. Our commitment to sustainability ensures a comfortable stay that respects the environment.​

Location & Accessibility

Situated between the Serra da Estrela and Serra do Açor mountain ranges, Terra Verde serves as an ideal base for exploring Central Portugal. The property is easily accessible by car, and we offer assistance with transportation arrangements, including airport transfers and local pickups.​
