One-Off Feature

Casa do Mira is a charming romantic retreat in the beautiful Portuguese village of Vila Nova de Milfontes.  Surrounded by beautiful unspoilt sandy beaches, hidden coves and clear waters, and on the estuary of the River Mira, it’s a wonderful place for a rural holiday.

General Info

The village of Vila Nova de Milfontes is situated on the estuary of the River Mira in the Alentejo Region of Portugal.  It is still relatively undiscovered and retains its Portuguese charm, quite different from the more developed areas of the Algarve.  Within a short stroll of the house there are lots of outdoor cafes and restaurants where you can enjoy fresh seafood.  There are beachside restaurants where you can sample BBQ’d sea bream and accompany it with local Alentejo wines.  There’s often entertainment on the village square in the main summer months.  There’s lots to do on the river including watersports, boat trips and kayaking.  There is a small ferry service across the estuary to the large sandy beaches of Furnas.

The Area Surrounding The Property / Accommodation

Aside from the many activities available on your doorstep, there are lots of other places to explore in the surrounding area.  The coastal strip surrounding Vila Nova De Milfontes boasts impressive beaches and coves such as Almograve, Zambujeira do Mar and Cabo Sardao. The historic town of Odemira is 15 minutes away.  Evora is home to some of the best Roman ruins in Europe.  The beautiful capital city of Lisbon is 190km away.  Or head south to the Algarve; you can reach the town of Lagos is 1.5 hours.  If you are a lover of nature, then head inland to the protected cork forests and the lakes.
