Surrounded by beautiful countryside, the Horta Da Coutada is a small guest house offering rustic accommodation in the pretty village of Telheiro, 1 km from the medieval town of Monsaraz.

This small property features 9 units comprised between apartments, suites and double bedrooms. All rooms have been decorated to reflect the regional styles with many local furnishings and artifacts.

Lovely spot with a very roomy and comfortable bedroom suite, an outside patio and a view of the megalithic stone circle close by. Breakfast was delicious and there were lovely sitting areas outside the main reception and dining room areas.

A Very Special pup, one of those that grace Monte da Pega, seeking solace. A fallen, desiccated tree, wrenched from its root, rests against the bordering wall adorned with vines. This tree only emanates purple, pink, and lavender hues by night. An olive tree, age-old with over two millennia, and enchanting, colorful birds on the wall, provide daytime companionship to the puppy. In the distance, the silhouette of Monsaraz Castle completes the backdrop. This is how my screenplay unfolds. Nights at Monte da Pega, sleep eluded me as its enchantment took hold. I wrote over the span of two nights, amidst open fields, alongside my characters who had evaded my grasp for two years. I caught naps during the afternoon, when the warmth embraced the land. All that I've penned above exists, a tangible reality. I wrote over the span of two nights, amidst open fields, alongside my characters who had evaded my grasp for two years. I caught naps during the afternoon, when the warmth embraced the land. In "Miura", Penguin Random House Group, Ago 2023

Casa Saramago is a quaint property, located in Monsaraz, a medieval village classified as a National Monument. The house features an outdoor swimming pool and a garden and is located a 30-minute drive from the border to neighbouring Spain.

So quaint and comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised that our bedroom had a little sitting room off to the side. And, a terrace that overlooked the whole beautiful area up to the castle.

The exclusive Casa Pinto is situated in the historic town of Monsaraz and is decorated with antiques. This elegant guest house features a rooftop sun terrace which is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of regional wine and relax.

An outstanding little hotel! The rooms are boutique-style, the photos on the internet do no do them justice. Luxirious, very stylish, every room has a different theme. Lovely, generous, homemade breakfast with very friendly host.

    Great location. Interesting, quirky property. Roof terrace would be lovely at a warmer time of year. Breakfast including fresh fruit was really good value considering it was just a €2.50 add on. Friendly owner. We stayed in an economy room which just has a skylight window but we knew that in advance. Would like to have had a look a look at the other rooms all representing ex Portuguese colonies.

    Charming guest house well located right in the heart of Monsaraz with a small pool and a comfortable patio and terrace for relaxing. Stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The host, Carlos, was extremely helpful and friendly and provided us with lots of information and lots of insights into the area. Breakfast was delicious and included a variety of home made jams, pastries and cakes. A perfect place to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

    A beautifully presented and maintained small traditional house in a quiet village near Monsaraz. The house is renovated to modern standards and with its extremely thick walls and double glazed windows is comfortable and quiet. The host is very charming and helpful. Parking is directly outside the front door which means you block the whole narrow street - not many places you can do that and it be ok!

    Great location and great hosts. Wonderful breakfast. Loved the system of having one area per room both at breakfast and around the pool. It is an extremely quiet place which we loved. If you are looking to rest you can't go wrong here.
