Good Hill Farm

3. Good Hill Farm

2 units · Tents · Oliveira De Frades, Alameda County
Camp under the bright stars in the heart of Portugal’s wild Magic Mountains, just a stone’s throw from a route of the Caminho de Santiago. Our off-grid mountain farm offers peaceful, back-to-nature tent camping with forest views, fresh spring water, and your own slice of paradise. Whether you're hiking the Camino or just craving some off-grid calm, this is the perfect spot to rest, reconnect, and recharge. Set on 28,000m² of terraced land, our off-grid quinta offers private tent pitches surrounded by olive trees, forests, and birdsong. A short walk from your pitch, you’ll find a natural waterfall and pool — perfect for cooling off, meditating, or soaking up the peace. We’ve built this space slowly and intentionally — everything is simple, low-impact, and in tune with nature. You can bring your own gear or rent one of our tents (with sleeping bag and mat) for a small extra fee. Amenities: Spring water refill stations Compost toilet with a view Hammocks to lounge in Tent hire available (with mat + sleeping bag) Solar-powered charging (on request) Seasonal veggies to buy or trade Waterfall & natural pool access Parking 2–3 min walk from campsites Nearby Adventures: Walking distance from a Caminho de Santiago trail Stunning river beaches within 10 minutes Hikes, waterfalls, and stunning views in Serra da Freita Local cafés, bakeries, and small markets About 1.5 hours from Porto Things to Know: Tent camping only (no vans or campers) No WiFi or electricity — there's good 5G reception here.

Olívia vintage trailer

5. Olívia vintage trailer

1 unit · Glamping ·
Olívia is a 1970s Digue Amorette caravan. Carefully restored by Gonçalo and Nuno from Seiva Atelier, who found the perfect spot for it at Casa Fluxus in Castelo de Vide. They joined Ana and little Ravi in taking care of this gem of pure nature. A comfortable and private trailer turned into a tiny house next to a massive cork oak. Immerse yourself in the raw nature of Alentejo under the most incredible night skies. It’s a place of tranquility and peace, with so much to explore around. Olívia accommodates two adults on a sofa bed with a comfortable mattress topper. It can also accommodate a child (bed length of 1.5 meters). Olívia doesn’t currently have WiFi, but we’re working on it. For now, WiFi is available in the main house and communal kitchen area. If you’d like, we can provide a bed for your pet. Olívia is an experience of simplicty and closeness to nature. We believe in disconencting to reconnect, but if it is needed there is WiFi is available at the main house, Casa Fluxus. There is no indoor shower. There’s an outdoor shower next to Olívia (not heated) and a mobile shower near Casa Fluxus (heated). There’s a graphic manual for Olívia so you can discover all its secrets and features. Casa Fluxus Casa Fluxus encompasses two hectares of beautiful wild land, teeming with biodiversity. Just 1.5 km from the poetic village of Castelo de Vide, this natural space allows you to spend a few days in simplicity, merging with the ecosystem. We kindly ask that you use only organic hygiene products. We are a non-smoking space. There’s a communal kitchen area with dining space, although it’s optional in this case since meals can be prepared and enjoyed in Olívia with all the convenience. There’s a compost toilet—a simple way to transform waste into life. Outdoor showers, cozy nooks, a pond, and two hectares of raw nature await exploration! Casa Fluxus magnetizes artists, creators, alchemists, and transformers together in a magical cauldron, seeking better ways to become enhanced versions of our humanity. We are conscious of our co-creation of experience, aiming for cooperative and sustainable systems. Ana and little Ravi live in the estate, in the main house (Casa Fluxus), with Sol a dog. As stewards of a diverse ecosystem, this small Portuguese family shares raw and wild nature with those who desire it. Bright stars and birdsong abound. Here, you’ll find pure nature—a place to enjoy tranquility. There can be other guest staying at Casa Fluxus (which offers space for parking caravans and to camp with your own tent), yet Olívia and the outside surrounding it are very private. Thank you for supporting this space of Collaborative Culture with your stay. Nearby There’s a laundry service in the village, right next to the local producers’ market. The market opens every Friday with fresh vegetables, fruits, and traditional cheeses. There are several restaurants, caffés, supermarkets, bars and small shops in Castelo de Vide (we can recommend a few fantastic places)! A walking path to Marvão starts directly from the estate. Around Castelo de Vide, there are many beautiful places like lakes, waterfalls, forest and points of historic and geological interest.
