Outside
The splash pool is approx 3.5 metres x 1.5metres and a metre deep. it has in pool seating areas on both sides and is an ideal place to cool off whilst enjoying a cold beer or a glass of the excellent local wine. The pool is not heated but due to its size and location in a south facing courtyard is never very cold.

Coast/Beach
Peniche the surf capital of Portugal is less than 30 mins away. It also has facilities for diving jet skiing etc as well as safe sandy beaches that stretch for miles with beachside cafes and bars. Obidos lagoon 20 mins away offers safe, shallow warm bathing flushed daily by the Atlantic Ocean. Sailing, jet skiing and water skiing facilities are all available on this huge expanse of water. The beaches of Sao Martino do Porto, Baleal and Foz do Alhelro are all excellent and within 30 mins

Golf
The golf courses of Obidos (Royal) and Rio Maior (The Golden Eagle) are both championship courses and are less than 30 minutes away. A further course designed by Seve Ballesteros is in the process of being constructed at Praia de la Rey.

Skiing
Waterskiing on the Obidos lagoon 20 minutes, diving at Peniche 20 minutes.

Travel
Car hire is really essential but is reasonably priced in Portugal. The main airport is Lisbon 40 minutes away on excellent roads. Flights from the UK leave from Luton and others.

Distances
Caldas da Rainha main local town with 3 huge supermarkets, traditional shops and markets, cafes and parks is only 10 to 15 minutes away on excellent roads, and the supermarkets are mainly on our side of town. Obidos with its palace and quaint winding streets is a must and only 15 minutes away. Nazare with tourist shops, quaint narrow winding streets and spectacular views is some 40 mins. Batalha with its massive church and peaceful pedestrian areas is worth a visit 40 mins.

Further details
Other places all within an hour and most much nearer are Torres Vedras, steeped in history (duke of Wellington and the Peninsular War). Alcobacha with its monastry and church now open to the public. Much of the silver coast is still undeveloped and many of the villages and towns have remained unchanged for centuries.
The local people throughout the region are very kind and friendly. Most adults speak no English (except in the shops) but many of the children do, some very well, as they learn it at school and enjoy trying it out. They also enjoy teaching you a little Portuguese.
