Its all about the kids on Holiday

Keep the kids happy and you will have a more peaceful and relaxing time yourselves.

Kids love our Quinta! 

Casa da Bezerra is a kids paradise.  There is endless space to run and play with no roads, a small, cool and clear river with waterfalls and little beach areas to explore.  In the summer months the water levels drop and exploring by hopping from stone to sandy patch to tree roots is exciting and totally absorbing.  The river is cool and shady and teaming with wildlife, fish, frogs and water boatmen, take a bucket and net and see what you can find.  If its hot and you are feeling lazy why not just get into a small inflatable boat and float down under the trees?  For the more adventurous there are waterfalls and deep pools to play in, clamber down old weir walls built in Roman times and sit under the warm water cascades - bliss! 

Then there is our Pool!! New for 2022, it is just amazing! Kids love it, it is safe, clean and warm. There are different areas to suit all braveness in swimmers. 1.6m at the deep end then just 1m for a little while so those who are not quite so sure can still fully enjoy the experience, finally our multi level steps that allow really small kids to have fun splashing and enjoying different levels of water to help them gain confidence.

For parents peace of mind and a little bit of holiday relaxation (we know how hard that is!!) we have a wonderful shady cabana with huge, comfortable sofas, full WIFI and power points to recharge all batteries! a coffee table so you can serve picnic lunches easily, lots of cushions and solar party lighting for evening swims.

We have animals to make friends with, depending on the time of year we have pigs not to mention our pets, 4 cats Kiko our male and our 3 new kittens Luna, Foxy and Lucky as well as 3 dogs Blue, Ted and Ylva. They are all very friendly and love lots of attention.  We also have chickens and ducks so if you want to help collect eggs and feed them you can.  

At some point, we know, you will want to go off and explore further afield, there are lots of things to do and great adventures around the area.

Wild camping - We can provide tents, sleeping bags and roll mats or you can bring your own camping equipment.  If renting our equipment we can set it all up for your arrival or if you want a full camping experience you can pick your spot and put up the tent yourself. Great for Teens too!

Art and craft activities

Throughout the year we can organise a range of craft sessions for our guests of all ages lasting around 2 hours (they may be shorter or longer depending of the activity and the ages of those taking part). So how about trying out something absorbing and new? we can provide stained glass, felt making, willow workshops making simple hearts, wreaths and stars, mosaics, masks and puppets, seasonal decorations, macrame, natural soap making, scented candles, tie dye, polymer clay and much more! All of these activities can be adapted for kids.  If you are interested just ask.
