About this property

Casa do Tanque - the charm of the shale

Only a couple of inhabitants and their numerous herds seem to contradict the feeling that here time has stopped long ago.

The village is delimited by two small water lines and concealed by the lush vegetation that surrounds it. It has simple urban fabric, basically organized by two steep alleys flanked by the house. The predominant building material is a dark shale, with rough apparatus and, except for the chapel, no other building is towed.
The surrounding forest and the fauna that makes it a starting point of choice for walks of discovery.
Where shale comforts, and where the picturesque traditional Portuguese touch predominates.
