2008-11-28 Adoramos lá estar. Excelente casa, a herdade é lindissima é os donps uma simpatia.
2008-02-05 We stayed 8-22 September 2007. We were welcomed and made to feel at home by Johanna & Dick (the owners) right from the first moment -they kindly waited for us due to our late arrival (10.30pm) and having shown us our accommodation, offered us a refreshing beer to help us wind down after our journey. Very much needed as driving in a country we didn't know, on the opposite of the the road, in the pitch dark was quite stressful! We loved the house and the farm as a whole and they included us in a trip they were making to the market. We joined them and some of their friends for a couple of barbeques, with all of us providing something (one occasion was fish Paul had caught in their lake)and were made to feel very much part of the family. We enjoyed our talks and explanations of things on the farm. We had free access to the whole of the farm and the swimming pool area was a welcome resting place. Everything was so clean and the accommodation was delightful with more than everything you could need. The views from the terrace in the morning watching the sun come up, with the beautiful charolais cows in the fields opposite was an experience not to be missed. I could go on forever extolling our stay so will just say....if you want peace, quiet, beautiful surroundings, excellent accommodation and fantastic hosts - this is the place to come. Thank you Johanna and Dick, your sister & your friends that we met (not forgetting your adorable dog, whose name we still can't say), it was an experience we will never forget.

Tips from the owner
Jeep safaris through the outstretched corkwoods, through almost remote villages and along castle and cloister ruins, which can be arranged by the owners. Within 10min. there is a flight club where unique round flights can be made over the surrounding in 2-pers. ultra light planes (approx. euro 20,- p.p. per 10 for 15min.).
It is even possible to water ski and there is a carting lane within 20min. close to Evora. The town Montemor-o-Novo is centrally situated, 250km to the Algarve, 100km. to Lisbon and 100km. to Spain. A car is recommended, in case you want to see more of Portugal. |
Estate: Herdade de Giblaceira
Herdade da Giblaceira offers you everything for a great holiday; beautifully equipped apartments, a large storage reservoir and a magnificent swimming pool.;
Herdade da Giblaceira has been a household estate for more than 400 years in the village of Montemor O Novo, at about 95km. from Lisbon and 36km from the former royal city of Evora in the countryside of Alentejo. The estate is situated in a valley at an altitude of 260m., in a valley of the Serra de Monfurada, surrounded by mauresque gardens, an olive orchard, a reservoir and about 200 hectares of cork oaks, where cow and sheep pasture. When the Dutch owners acquired the property, it was a ruin, which they completely restaured to its original state in 2005. The farm is divided into 7 terraced cottages, of which one is used occassionally by the owners. The Herdade is provided with a beautiful communal swimming pool (10x20m.) with a small diving-board and Roman stairs,
where non-swimmers can also bathe delightfully. There is a communal laundry-room and the owners can arrange several activities for you (jeepsafari's, flight tours in ultra-light aircrafts). Swimming and fishing is possible in the nearby reservoir, measuring 4 hectares. The farm is in full swing, with 150 cows and bulls and 1200 sheep, lambing throughout the whole year. The barns and tractors are at 500m from the Herdade. Montemor O Novo is about 7km from the estate and the small village of Reguengo disposes of a minimarket, a post-office and 2 café's serving light meals. Every 2nd
Saturday of the month, a gipsy market takes place. In May and September
'feira's' are held; a sort of fair with loads of activities. Once a week, a cattle-auction of national importance takes place in Montemor.
The last 3 km of the access road to Giblaceira is not asphalted but is always kept in good condition by the owners who use this road daily.
