The country house has a TV. Towels and bed linen are available in the country house. For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing.

Guests at the country house can enjoy hiking nearby, or make the most of the garden.

The property grounds were amazing with full of orange and olive trees. From the property, we took the old Roman stone trail leading to the medieval town. Ingrid, the housekeeper, not only provided us with GF bread, but baked us a delicious GF cake with the oranges from the garden. Her husband beautifully maintains the garden with nice decorative touches. They were both very welcoming and accommodating.

Located in Monsanto, 2.5 km from Monsanto Castle, Bode Country House provides accommodation with an infinity pool, free private parking, a garden and a bar. The air-conditioned accommodation is 49 km from St. Michael's Church. Guests can make use of the outdoor fireplace or the picnic area, or enjoy views of the mountain and pool.

Everything was so clean and very traditional chic. Loved the way they took a ruin and incorporated into a lodge. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be coming back to this hotel once it’s warmer to use the pool.

    Amazing little stone casa/suite decorated with taste and thought in every "touch", incredibly comfy bed with lovely linens, peaceful & idyllic setting (very quiet and away from it all 🙏), delicious breakfast, picking our own oranges (and the tastiest we've ever had), the fountain with mountain spring water for drinking, the Old Roman Road / path to the unbelievable village of Monsanto, and lovely hosts. Many thanks to Ingrid & her husband for making us feel so welcome and comfortable. 😊

    Loved the location and views across to the the hills and the distant snow capped mountains. Quinta da Pedra Grande is a very peaceful setting, well maintained and the courtyard has a little seated area and table to sit at and enjoy the outdoors. The continental breakfast was exactly to my taste and presented well. Our host looked after us very well and provided extra pillows on request.

    The hosts took us in last minute after we left another unsuitable property. They were both so friendly and welcoming you really felt like you were staying with friends. Would highly recommend. Lovely room in a rural location. Peaceful and quiet.

    After a day of travel we pulled into the beautiful Bode Country House Catarina and Stefano were so friendly and welcoming. The infinity pool with views of the mountains and olive grove was just what we needed. The room and the breakfast was fabulous. I highly recommend this lovely peaceful charming hotel

    With genuinely friendly and caring hosts, Zion's Jardim is set in a lovely pastoral landscape filled with birdsong, flowers, olive and cork trees, and possesses an unobstructed view of Monsanto (just a few kilometers away). Large, quiet, and very clean rooms within a beautiful typical stone Portuguese house allow for a good night's sleep, and the large pergola is simply perfect to enjoy a lovely breakfast that might include fresh homemade bread, with pear or fig jams, and veggies picked that morning from the garden.

    Wow! What a unique stay with gorgeous view of the surrounding countryside. Right in the heart of Monsanto and walking distance to everything you need to see including hiking trails. Amazing fireplace and we loved the ancient boulder inside the house that it is built around. We cannot say enough lovely things about the hosts. They were very accommodating; by helping us with anything we needed, housekeeping services, and bringing delicious food for us. We will definitely be returning one day!
