Summary: Advice: check before booking whether a festival is held in the nearby town. See below why. We were greeted warmly by the owner at the reception (once I found it). The cottage is a short walk away from the main house and pool, but you cannot get there by car. We needed to make a short detour. The arrival is wonderful, with a moving garage door to give access to the property. Very secluded and private. The scenery was wonderful. With pear trees, peach trees, olive trees and a vineyard. We chose the property for the quiet surroundings, but that we were very disappointed in that on our first night. Starting at 10 pm the volume of the nearby festival went up and it was that loud that the noice seemed to come from the neighbor. No surprise that we couldn’t sleep until the festival ended at midnight. This ruined the first and second day for us. Fortunately, the festival ended that day, so we made the most of it. The pool was wonderful, although there are many flies because of the rural area. The house is spacious and cool. There is AC, but we hardly used it. During the night some mosquitos slipped through holes in the mosquito screens, so we proceeded to sleep with windows closed. The wifi was excellent. The owner arranged for my son to hold a small lamb, which made him very happy of course. We did wonderful sightseeing in Tomar. We can recommend visiting the castle, convent and town.

Summary: The house was very peaceful, in a beautiful setting. It made a great base to see Coimbra and other sights, and then to sit on the terrace and enjoy a glass of port and the views in the evening. Really enjoyed our stay there!

Summary: We had a wonderful time at Casa Brigitte. The pool and garden was lovely and the house was beautifully restored. Check in was tricky as there was no sign on the home so knocking on the door felt a bit strange. We were greeted by an associate who gestured for us to go out back towards the tall house that appeared to be Casa Brigitte. We drove down the road to the house and were greeted by Brigitte who appeared quite distraught that we had driven down the road and reprimanded us “What are you doing here? Who are you? What is your name?!”. She indicated that she was afraid we would not be able to reverse down the road (we were… it was a normal driveway) but the message could have been delivered with more tact and grace (and at least an apology for such a prickly welcome). It also became clear that Brigitte was very on edge having our three year old around. She did not seem to enjoy him turning on the light switches, opening the cabinets, or holding the remote control and was sure to let us know several times “not all things are for children, put that down, why must children turn the lights on and off?!” I suspect anyone with small children will have a similar experience but don’t let this deter you because it is a beautiful place to vacation. The sheep were cute, the pool was fun, and the house is beautiful. Brigitte likely means well but her anxiety and communication style lessen the tranquility.

Summary: If you want somewhere peaceful to relax and unwind then Casa Brigitte is a lovely place to do just that. Very private and quiet - the house is comfortable with large bedrooms. Brigitte will bring you breakfast each morning if you would like it or you can choose to do your own. Day trips can be undertaken by car to Tomar (40 minutes), Coimbra (40 minutes), Fatima (1 hour) and Batalha (1h 15). There is private, secure parking. The patio is very private and perfect for eating out and evening drinks. One small recommendation we made was to add some comfortable chairs on the patio if you want to sit and read your book for the afternoon. There are two supermarkets in the village and two restaurants and a few cafe bars. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - a great mix of sightseeing and relaxing in the beautiful weather. Thank you Brigitte for making us feel welcome.

Summary: We found Casa Brigitte very easily, using our sat nav. The front of the house, confused us as it does not look the same as the photo. Our holiday home was behind the main house. We were met, by a very friendly cat and I rang Brigitte, who met us at the back of her home. She suggested getting into our car and taking us on, a short drive which took us up a short lane to the rear of the property. We then had our own access through an electronic gate. Our home was separate, as shown in the photo on the page. There are steps up to the house and a small patio area and a covered area in the shade with tables and chairs. We walked into the kitchen, which has the basics, you will need to cook a meal. Washing machine is in the cellar, which we used once. A step from the kitchen, leads into the lounge/dining area, with a TV, wood burner and comfy sofas. Both bedrooms are a reasonable size with lots of wardrobe space , bedside lights so that we could both read. The bathroom was fine, with a nice shower. The pool is a short walk away, past the sheep who were happily grazing. The pool house has a shower and toilets. If you love cats, you may well have a visit from a beautiful friendly orange cat called Zamson. Brigitte was very welcoming and spent time, telling us about attractions nearby as well as places to eat. She provided us with an excellent Breakfast (Coffee, Juice, rolls, cheese, ham and Jam) each morning which started the day well. We visited Convento de Cristo at Tomar, lovely and peaceful. Not busy, so we had time to wander around. Tomar itself was decorated, as they had just celebrated festa dos tabuleiros (Festival of trays), had a nice wander around there and some lovely cakes. at Café da Praca. Stopped for lovely ice cream at Orquestra de Sabores 2 by the river. We only ate out locally one evening at Restaurant Tricana, ample portions of local Portugese food. Two of us ate a lovely meal, at a total cost of 42.00 Euros including wine and soft drinks. We enjoyed the pool and the area and only wished we had stayed longer. We met Brigitte's husband, the day we were leaving and their beautiful Collie (Trainee Sheep Dog) Oscar. We were very sad to say farewell and would recommend this lovely house to anyone wanting to stay. There is also accommodation available in another property as well as rooms available in the main house. An ideal location for a family get together, but you do need a car.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Brigitte. The cottage was immaculately clean, comfortable, very quiet and equipped with everything we needed. Breakfast delivered to our door each morning was something we looked forward to. It was always fresh and plentiful. The homemade jam was so delicious! Brigitte and Bernhard were great hosts. We especially appreciated their help in dealing with a toll ticket we didn't know what to do with. They were full of local knowledge, very approachable and friendly. Thank you both !

Summary: Casa Brigitte is a warm, welcoming, beautifully clean house that we didn’t want to leave. It is well equipped with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. It has private courtyard areas but with the option of using the pool and grounds of the stunning Quinta do Sobral. Bernhard and Brigitte are excellent hosts. We found them extremely friendly, helpful and always approachable. We would recommend Casa Brigitte to others without hesitation.
