River View Wild Glamping

Location and Surroundings

Situated in the foothills of the mountain town of Marvão, and a short drive from the lively town of Castelo de Vide, we are a 28 hectare farm with olive terraces, ancient cork trees, willows, elder, and ash trees.

Your Accommodation

You will have a generous 5 m bell tent and your own deck overlooking the river. There is a very comfortable king size bed, feather pillows, and all the linen you will need. There are portable LED lamps by your bed. There are hand and face towels, plus larger ones for those river dips. There is a head torch and a power charger. Both the door and all four windows have mosquito nets.

Facilities and Dining

This is "wild" glamping, so there are no cooking facilities available at the tent, but there are plates, cups or glasses, and cutlery for your picnics. Naked flames are not allowed during the high temperature season, sorry. We can offer a list of very good local restaurants and bars, including a vegan restaurant and a craft ale bar.

There are two loungers on one terrace, and an outdoor dining table with benches on another.

Up at the workshop, there is access to a kettle, fridge, power outlets, and charging sockets.

There is a basic compost loo and a camping shower.

Important Information

Please bring a torch, as it is a dark site with uneven ground and steep sided terraces.

Nature and Activities

We have a wild river to explore and swim in, plus our mountain to climb for that sunset beer. Come and marvel at the dark night skies and wondrous stars. Watch out for our visiting cows, butterflies, vultures, eagles, owls, golden orioles, bee eaters, and more. You may even see an otter or a mongoose. Come in October, and you can experience the olive picking season with us.
