About this house rental
On the beautiful Alentejo plain, Monte dos Freixos is a peaceful, restful and safe place for a relaxing family or friends holiday.
This space was designed as a vacation and weekend getaway, providing an atmosphere of tranquility and charm in a rural and relaxed atmosphere.
The decoration combines local elements and the comfort of modern times, resulting in a harmonious effect between a rustic and contemporary style.
The property has a private pool, barbecue, cable TV, free wi-fi and parking within the property.
It has a lounge with living and dining area, fully equipped independent kitchen. The kitchen and dining room both have access to an outdoor terrace with a barbecue and a large table for alfresco dining.
Several shady, grassy areas around the pool invite you to relax on a sun lounger shaded by a tree.
On the front terrace, in the shade of the trellis, two inviting hammocks.
In addition to the two double bedrooms and one twin bedroom, we also offer an extra single bed and a travel cot.
In summer, enjoy the silence and the singing of birds and fall asleep on the terrace gazing at the stars.
On cold winter nights, it is good to live around a large and typical Alentejo fireplace.
Monte dos Freixos is just 5 km from Estremoz, in an area surrounded by vineyards.
The quiet village stretches across the Alentejo plain to "Monte". The location is ideal for walking or cycling.
The location is strategic for visiting the most beautiful region of Alentejo - Evora, Vila Viçosa, Monsaraz, and the Great Alqueva Lake, Elvas, Crato, Marvao and Castelo de Vide.
From here you also start looking for the numerous wineries and restaurants that offer the best wine and gastronomy of the Alentejo.

We stayed for three night and our goal was to relax, cook, enjoy the environment and go on walks with our dog,
The home environment was terrific with an excellent equipped kitchen and many zones outside and inside to relax. The design of the house is beautiful and warm. The environment is great for walks, bike ride - mountain or hybrid bikes -and trip to hill side walled towns. Estremoz, 6 km away has excellent food shopping

Four of us and a dog have just spent a fortnight relaxing in this lovely house, full of charm. The pool was a good size and the water perfect ( the pool was maintained very discreetly- the man must have made visits about 6am!). The kitchen was extremely well-equipped, the TV worked well and had news channels in both Portuguese and English, the bathrooms were both lovely and the beds comfortable. My favourite spot was however under the vines, in one of the two hammocks, keeping cool on those hot, Alentejo afternoons. Every morning my friend and I went walking through the cork forests surrounding the pretty village of São Lourenço and would then stop for a coffee in the cafe just 200 metres or so from the house. We also ate here twice and the food was excellent. Much better than we would have imagined. The locals were friendly and helpful and the town of Estremoz only 5k away. I have no hesitations in recommending this holiday home. You will love it.

We had a wonderful, relaxing week at the villa. Carlos the owner was very responsive to our emails, and Isilda and her husband were super helpful on site for the couple of things we needed at the beginning. The villa is tastefully decorated, with a well-equipped kitchen. There isn’t much to do in the immediate area, other than Evora (40 km away), which is definitely worth a visit, but the pool was nice and the weather was warm, so we were happy not to leave the villa much - that’s what we needed. The grape vines on the front porch pergola were in season, so fun to pick and eat. The neighbors were a bit closer than we were expecting, but the layout of the property makes it very private, and we didn’t hear anything but sheep baa-ing! Our only marginal complaint would be that we found the shower pressure and water temperature both a bit low. We would highly recommend this villa if you’re looking for a relaxing, quiet stay.

This house is beautiful, it is impeccable. The greeting was lovely and we appreciated the cheese, the bread and the wine.
The location is perfect and it is easily accessible.
Our mails were always answered rapidly, the owners are always available.
We will definitely return someday.

We truly enjoyed our visit at Monte Freixos. The home is located in a small town quite close to Estramoz. We had spent two weeks traveling in other parts of Portugal and coming to the Estramoz area was a wonderful way to relax and truly enjoy the Alentejo region at the end of our stay. The home was beautiful, nicely decorated, comfortable and, very well appointed. It has a private backyard which we used and enjoyed. We shopped at the local market (Estramoz) and cooked every evening. We found the kitchen, BBQ area and dining area to have everything we would need. Elsa and Carlos were terrific hosts. They welcomed us and were always available and offered all the instructions we needed to get acclimated when we arrived. They also gave us additional pointers to vineyards, restaurants and towns to find local pottery (Redondo) and other things. I would return and would definitely recommend Monte Freixos to our friends and family.

We loved the house. It was spacy, clean. You have a beautiful view on the countryside. Everything you need, and more is available. The kitchen is big with plenty of equipment. For us the WIFI was important. Well it worked beyond expectation. There is not much to do in the area. But who cares. Sit down, read a book and drink a glass of the local wine. Stroll around in that little town and drink coffee or crap a meal at Zézedas. More local is impossible. We did it every evening and became a bit local ourselves. Order your bread for the next morning here too. Estremoz is a nice little town at 5 km. The best supermarket is the first you see from the house.
We will come back!!

We enjoyed a tranquil and relaxing 4 weeks at this property. It had everything we needed and was beautifully renovated. Elsa answered all our requests promptly and was very kind to help us organise horse riding lessons for our daughter (thank you). Estromez is a delightful town, very picturesque and with lots of great restaurants. Local wines are fabulous and great location for discovering the Alentejo. The local restaurant/café/bar/shop in the village (2 minutes walk from the house) is very good. Lots of supermarkets in Estromez (our favourite was Continente) and the Saturday morning market is essential. We loved this place!

We loved the house. Very stylish, clean and well equipped. Elsa and Carlos met us when we arrived and showed us round the property, gave us some good restaurant recommendations and made us and our 18 month old son feel very welcome. Enjoyed sitting outside, swimming in the pool, cooking on the bbq and enjoying the excellent local wine. A great place to relax.
