Description:
Casa do Pedro is one of four lodgings that make up Agroturismo Quinta de Travancela. This rural tourism accommodation, surrounded by serene natural and agricultural landscapes, also includes an outdoor saltwater swimming pool, a games room with access to a vending machine, and private parking.
This entire section is the oldest part of the farm and dates back to the late 18th century. The lodgings are former caretakers' houses, which have been remodelled and restored to provide maximum comfort for our guests.
Each lodging is unique, with no two alike, and their names are intrinsically linked to their history.
Casa do Pedro, as the name suggests, was the home of the farm's caretaker, named Pedro.
With only one floor, this accommodation has one bedroom with two single beds and another bedroom with one double bed and an extra bed. It also has a bathroom shared by the two bedrooms, a living/dining room with a wood-burning stove and a fully equipped kitchen. It has a separate entrance, air conditioning in the bedrooms and a private terrace with direct access. It can accommodate up to five guests.
