There are few places in Portugal that offer the amazing sights that can be found with a privately owned farmhouse in Marvao. The village's mountaintop location offers a 360° vista across the surrounding area, making it an unmissable place to visit!
The medieval village makes the perfect backdrop for the amazing views from the mountain. It's small, winding roads centre at the 13th century castle at the village's heart. The medieval atmosphere of the place is amazing, and and you'll never forget the sights you'll see when you climb up one of the many battlements or towers and see far across the Portuguese country. Inside the castle there is a small museum full of the interesting local artifacts and finds.
While you can spend days seeing the amazing sights from your short term rental villa in Marvao, it's well worth taking the time to see the other sights of the local area. You're very close to the city of Evora, where a private rental cottage lets you see the city that has been described as an open-air museum, with many ruins and sites of history that you can explore.
Another great place to see is the marble town of Estremoz, where the stone can be found all around – the cobble stones, the pavement, even in the whitewash on the buildings! A privately owned collage in Estremoz makes the perfect place for your Portuguese holiday.
