The Quinta da Moenda has many extra services to offer, exclusively for guests. The spacious patio with an extra outside kitchen with a barbecue is unique. The large lightly salted swimming pool has an almost therapeutic effect.

The big (13x7m) and deep (2,25m) swimming pool adds a lot to a totally relaxed body and soul. The lightly salted water has a softening effect on the skin and doesn't irritate the eyes. You don't taste it, you don't smell it and it is more environmental friendly than chlorine.
Safe accommodation
We do everything we can to create a safe environment for you and your children. An elegant fence separates the patio from the pool, so that children don't walk into the water without being noticed. A gate closes the entrance to the small alley along the quinta. Safety first!
Clear river
The adjacent river Alvoco is a real bonus. Here children can play for hours on end with the water, sand and pebbles. They can swim and fish in the crystal clear water. The river beach is an excellent spot from which to take in the beautiful surroundings.

Outdoor kitchen
The outdoor kitchen with barbecue and oven offers all the comfort that you need. A large covered shady pergola by the pool attracts a cool breeze on the many warm sunny afternoons where you can sit and relax and enjoy the beautiful views. A patio is available for those evenings when you want to relax by candlelight around the pool. The starry night skies are so near you can almost touch them. The pool and barbecue area are for guests use only.

Fresh bread
Every morning (except on Sundays) the bakery from the village delivers fresh bread. You can also order breakfast with us, home delivered on the time that suits you best. You can stay in the privacy of your own apartment or have it served on the patio.
Comfortable loungers
Relax on one of our comfortable loungers and listen to the laughter of the youngsters from Alvoco das Várzeas who enjoy the riverbeach. The purity of the Portuguese countryside takes you back in time. You don't have to bring pooltowels as we have them for hire.
