The Costa de Prata/Silver Coast/Central Portugal region


The Silver Coast is renowned for it's unspoilt coastline and excellent golf courses. Only 5 minutes drive from the villa are two world class golf courses Praia D'El Rey and Bom Sucesso. The villa is equipped with two complete sets of golf clubs for the use of guests.
As well as the beaches at the lagoon and Bom Sucesso nearby, you can find more about 5 minutes drive away at Praia do Mar. Further afield are beaches at Foz do Arelho on the opposite side of the lagoon, Baleal, Peniche, Sao Martinho do Porto and Nazare. All are very picturesque and ideal for family trips as well as attracting enthusiastic surfers.
The mild climate with all year round sunshine makes it the perfect holiday destination in all seasons. In the summer the heat is refreshed by a gentle sea breeze.
The region has many places of historic interest well worth visiting, including Fatima and the monasteries at Batalha and Alcobaca. For a great day out further afield, the university town of Coimbra, palaces and castle at Sintra, Mafra Palace, and the city of Lisbon are all famous tourist attractions.
The Obidos / Bom Sucesso area
Nearby are two excellent golf courses - Praia del Rey and Bom Sucesso, located in beautiful scenery within 5 minutes drive. Praia d’El Rey, with sea views, was designed by the American golf architect Cabell B. Robinson. It was rated 13th best course in Europe by Golf World magazine, attracting both private and sponsored events as well as international tournaments and recently hosted the Portuguese open. Bom Sucesso, opened October 2008, is already considered one of the finest courses in Europe. It has stunning views over the Obidos Lagoon and was designed by Donald Steel. It’s a PAR 72, with an area exceeding 6000m2. Also in the area are Golden Eagle (25 min) and Campo Real (30 mins). Two complete sets of golf clubs are provided for guests at the villa.
The beautifully preserved medieval walled town of Obidos is about 10 minutes drive away. This is a 'must see' place to visit during your holiday. The town is lovely with narrow cobblestone streets full of whitewashed houses with blue or yellow borders, flower-laden window boxes and terracotta roofs. From the town walls there are marvellous views of the town, castle, Roman ruins and surrounding countryside. There are a good choice of restaurants, cafes and bars, and gift shops selling local handicrafts. You can also try the local Ginja liquer. The town hosts cultural events throughout the year including an opera festival in August, a medieval festival in July and a delicious chocolate festival in March.
The fishing town of Peniche has an old fortress overlooking the harbour and there are many seafood restaurants. Peniche and Lourinha also have water parks. For birdwatching, catch the boat from Peniche (takes about 35 mins) to the national bird sanctuary and nature reserve of the Berlengas Islands.
Leisure activities in the area include tennis, gokarting, ten pin bowling and horse riding.

Guestbook for Casa da Lagoa
We had an excellent holiday at your villa. The house is modern and very comfortable. Everything is clean and new! We were very pleased. My husband and children were delighted. We relaxed in this beautiful villa and perhaps one day we will get back to you for our next vacation. Thank you again. Mrs. S. France.
We had a great holiday, even though the weather didn't perform properly. It's a great part of the world, isn't it? Plenty to do, even when the sun wasn't around. The villa is well equipped, although a large serving plate would have been useful the night we had a pizza! Many thanks again - we had a great time. Ms. K. Suffolk.
We enjoyed our week at your villa very much and we could go to the beach every day. The house is very nicely located, the area is splendid. It was great and we enjoyed our holiday very much. The house is very well equipped. My wife would have appreciated a few more salad bowls in the kitchen, but this is just to go from excellent to perfect. We had a wonderful holiday. Mr. S. France.
Thanks for the rental of your home. We had a blast: Roman ruins, hiking around Lagoa de Obidos, and exploring the many villages. The property was all as expected and pleasantly quiet - a perfect vacation! We would welcome the opportunity to return. Mr. C. Amsterdam.
Just to let you know that we had a super time at the villa. It is a superb property, quiet and well located. The weather was a little hit and miss, a bit cloudy at times. I made use of the golf clubs as well and all in all we had a great time. Thanks again and best wishes, Mr. R. Coatbridge.
Many thanks for the villa for the past two weeks, we had a really relaxing time. Weather was a bit disappointing in the first week but glorious in the second. Mr. S. Essex.
We had a good time in your villa. Weather was good to us. Ms. B. Bedford.
We spent a very nice and relaxing time in your villa. The accommodation was really great and the villa can also only be described as great, and with lots of comfort. It’s quite new isn’t it ? The description of the area in the information folder was an excellent help and we went almost everywhere of the described places.Thanks for your kind help and instructions before our stay and for the great accommodation! Most of the time quite good weather, beautiful beaches and good waves. We can only say great relaxing holidays in a very nice villa! Mr. F. Germany
We really love your villa, maybe for next year we will come back again. We went to the Berlengas Islands, they are marvellous. Ferias fantasticas! Mrs. C. Portugal.
The villa - very pleasant, very comfortable and practical. Your choice of Obidos is very good - all locations are easily reachable. Mr. D. France.
We had a smashing holiday and thought the accommodation was first class. Mr. W. Sussex.
What a beautiful country! What a diversity! You've got Italy, Cote d'Azur and even Scotland in a few kilometres square. You are really right to have built your house here, we hope you will enjoy great moments of holidays. For us it was a great success. Everything easy, everything convenient and comfortable. Mr. L. France.
We had a wonderful time at the house it was lovely and relaxing. The villa is very spacious and had everything that we could need for our holiday. In fact we did'nt want to go home. The weather has been good apart from a few cloudy mornings, but the sun burnt off the clouds and it was warn and sunny again in the afternoons. Mrs. B. Fife.
We have now returned from 3 very nice weeks at your villa. We found the place very charming, as well as the people and surroundings. We shall have no problem in recommending it to others. We have had a lovely stay, your villa is great and quite spacious for a family with two children. The villa is well equipped, and the pool and garden is great fun for the children. We just love Obidos and the beach in Bom Sucesso. The first couple of weeks were mostly cloudy and just about 20 degrees, not exactly what we hope for being from the western part of Norway, we long for sunshine and high temperatures. This week has been sunny and warm and we have enjoyed the local beaches in the area. One day we went all the way down south of Lisbon, it is lovely with the trams, castle and grand squares and statues. We found the Portuguese friendly and will consider going back to Portugal in the future. Mr. R. Norway.
We had a lovely time at your villa. It is absolutely beautiful. The amount of space is great and the decor and furniture are all perfect. Jim tested out the new golf clubs too and he won the game!! Mrs. M. Manchester.
We had a great time at your wonderful villa. Mr. C. Yorkshire.
