Varandas de Santo Antonio (apartment)

Home description

The apartment has two bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with twin beds and a large lounge with a double sofa bed, therefore, accommodating up to six people. A travel cot and a high chair can also be provided.

The building is an excellent development with solid wood floors to the bedrooms and quality floor tiles in all other rooms.

The Silver Coast area of Portugal, named after its many wonderful sandy beaches, is a relatively undeveloped area retaining much of its traditional Portuguese charm. The main resort towns can become busy in August but otherwise there is normaly plenty of space and always plenty to do.

São Martinho do Porto is a small but lovely coastal resort town with a good selection of bars, cafes and restaurants. There are a number of cliff top walks from the apartment and the new town, the old town and the local market are all easily reachable on foot, although the wonderful views from the balconies and roof terrace my keep you mesmerised all day!
There are great beaches for surfing at Nazare, 10mins by car, and Peniche, 15 mins by car.

For those interested in local history there are two interesting and attractive places to visit nearby. Obidos a small town still retaining its medieval walls and Alcobaca the site of the largest monestry in Portugal.
Slightly further afield is the famous religious and pilgramige town of Fatima, Roman ruins at Conimbiga, Castles at Almoural, Mavao,Tomar and Sintra and palaces at Jerinomos, Mafra and Sintra and the monestry of Batalha.

The Costa de Prata/Silver Coast region

Located less than 100km north of Lisbon on Portugal’s Atlantic coast lies Sao Martinho Do Porto in the heart of the Silver Coast (Costa Prata). Easily accessed from the A8 leading directly from Lisbon within an hour from the airport. The mild temperatures and white sandy beaches offer the choice between practising water sports: windsurfing and surfboarding being very popular in the area with major centres in Peniche, Baleal and Foz de Arelho; or the calm life of the seaside. The monasteries, convents, castles, churches, and museums provide a variety of interesting days out, Costa de Prata is also home to famous traditional art treasures, such as its porcelain and crystal, as well as its gastronomy, strongly influenced by the sea and counterbalanced by its tasty Bairrada wines and mouth-watering sweets. The mild climate provides a lengthy holiday season with average temeratures in the 20s between May and October.

Unlike its more famous and populous cousin in the south - the Algarve . . . here you can discover pretty villages and a real Portuguese way-of-life amongst stunning coastal scenery fringed with some of the best beaches in Europe.
If you are looking for a warm and relaxing place, where the people are genuinely friendly, the wine is superb and the weather is almost perfect - then there are few choices better than the Silver Coast of Portugal.

Because much of this area of Portugal remains undiscovered by the mass tourism market you can guarantee a beach to yourself even in the height of the season if you are prepared to drive and walk a little way. More robust than the Algarve coast and open to the Atlantic Ocean - the seas here are more vigorous, and offer some unrivalled surfing conditions. This area has some of the most spectacular scenery in Portugal. Just inland there are sea-water lagoons, small villages in the hills, castles, forests, the beautiful pine forest Pinhal do Rei, the Berlengas Islands where there is good sea fishing and the Berlenga Grande - a National Bird Reserve and a wide choice of interesting and historical locations

Guestbook

I would like to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at your apartment in Sao Martinho. I have to say the apartment was lovely and just what was required; we will certainly recommend it, the town of Sao Martinho and the surrounding area to our friends. The beds were extremely comfortable. The pool was superb and the restaurants in the town were to be recommended too. Many thanks.
