Middle of Portugal - Bed & breakfast
    Quinta das mestras is a country home on 7½ acres of terraced lands, with olive groves and pine forest. It has its own mineral water, and a small stream, which attracts birds of all feather.

Quinta das Mestras is located in the beautiful country side of Beira Alta, nested between two rivers; the Mondego and the Alva. In the background lies the Serra da Estrela, a magnificent unspoilt mountain range. One can ski there in the winter.

Quinta das Mestras is only 4 km from Oliveira do Hospital, a small country town, where you will find all necessary facilities, such as banks, shops, restaurants, etc.

Accomodation
       The rooms, 3 doubles and 1 single, are located in the 'old buildings', constructed out of huge granite stones, typical of the area.
Up on the hill we also have
two cabanas. Please click here
