4 Bedroom House in Obidos, Óbidos

Torre de Maneys are two buildings, a medieval stone tower, and a common house in the village, connected by a covered bridge.
In the tower are the common areas distributed in two floors and a library mezzanine. In the house across the street are 4 of the 5 bedrooms. the price is for 4 bedrooms. The fifth bedroom is independent, and can be rented on request, for an additional € 70 per night.
Because of the topography of the village, one can enter the houses on each floor, which allows a curious relationship with the exterior and public space.
The dining room and the kitchen are upstairs downstairs and extend onto the little Place and the Street.
On the upper floor, with the entrance, is a room with a fireplace, which is my favorite corner to read in the winter evenings. The double height library with mezzanine is the favorite room for socializing, listening to music or watching a movie. Fiction and poetry books are on the mezzanine shelves, in Portuguese, English, French, Spanish and Italian.
Rooms with private bathroom, TV, WIFI and air conditioning, heat and cold. On the side of the tower is a suite with access to the terrace.
The terrace overlooking the village, ramparts and fields in the distance. A pergola creates shade and a place to sit, read or eat. There is a flat rise up to the kitchen.
The patio is one of the possible entrances, a space sheltered from the wind and the sun to be outside.
Overview
The whole house is air conditioned, with central heating with hot water.
WIFI is everywhere.
The circulation between the two buildings goes up and down the stairs.
It is an old building with fairly open railings, unsuitable for small children.
Town
Óbidos is a special place for vacation. You can walk everywhere. Get lost in the medieval, sunny and flowery alleys, taking your time to observe the details of the constructions and spaces that surround us, houses, churches, squares. At each corner there is a surprise, small spaces to sit in the sun, endless winding slopes, the ramparts at the end of an alley, offer us the contrasts of the small spaces of the village, with the large dimension of the territory. beyond the walls, vineyards, orchards, and the mountains in the distance.
The main street “Rua Direita” is full of craft shops, wineries, cafes and restaurants.
The Óbidos literary village project offers us several (6) bookstores with contemporary authors, but also used books, and rare editions.
Always on foot we leave the city by agricultural sites which lead us to the Lagoon and the Sea, or inside to the neighboring hills and fields.

Summary: We loved this unique experience! The Poets tower was incredible. It’s more of a Bed and Breakfast with each bedroom having its own en-suite and breakfast in the dining space. The original artwork, Library, furniture etc. was incredibly impressive. The many hidden areas, patios, unique staircases and windy walkways are more than you would imagine. It was so fun to explore obidos in the morning and evening and there are some great restaurants right there. The downside is the distance from the parking lot. We have a child that requires a lot of medical supplies when traveling and going 1/3 of a mile from the parking lot to the tower is difficult with suitcases. But still worth it. Thankfully, my husband and oldest son were able to carry the heavy bags but keep that in mind when traveling. Had we not all been together, there is no way we could’ve done it.
