About Me

We moved out to Portugal to live a frugal but better , simpler and peaceful life, our house is a very basic, semi ruin, up in the hills outside Figueiro Dos Vinhos, where we work our land, enjoy life with each other and our dogs, and hope to make the smallest carbon footprint we can,

Staying with Us... More..

Well we are having a little better Spring than last year, the cottage is pretty busy for April, that will help the finances as we have a few large bills coming up.
Regular readers will notice Ive added another page today. We now can offer two levels of accomodation , the beautiful Mara's Cottage, which has the pool sundeck and all the trimmings...
And now... da dahhhh
Forest View Caravan.
Especially for those on a very tight budget... which is something we understand all about..
We recently decided that we would probably cut our helpers and volunteers to a minimum this summer. And as we had spent the last few months renovating and generally sprucing up the caravan, it now looks lovely and seemed a waste to have it sitting unused, when we could have it rented out, people can get to come to Portugal who may not be able to afford other places, and we of course get to supplement our miniscule income a little.
Ive got some lovely people from here booked for April already and am looking forward to meeting them so much...
