Why Cortém?
Seen from its position in Portugal Cortém is very central and many historical sites and cities can be visited in a day. Motorway access is 3 km away and Lisbon is only one hour away. The picturesque spa and ceramics town of Caldas da Rainha can be reached in 10 minutes and in addition to its daily fruit, vegetable and fish markets, has all amenities and international supermarkets, including Leclerc, Lidl and Aldi where one can buy french and german produce as well. An hourly economical express bus service from Caldas to Lisbon centre and many other towns provides an alternative way to visit the capital city and other places of interest. Obidos one of the most visited castles in Portugal is 15 minutes away.
Not widely talked about but certainly very important is that Cortém is definitely warmer, less humid and has more sun than the coast, which often has fog even in the summer months. Cortém is 18 km from the coast and all the beautiful beaches of the Silver Coast from Peniche, Baleal to Nazaré and Sao Martinho do Porto can be reached in half an hour. Our nearest beach, Foz D’Arelho, is at the mouth of the Obidos Lagoon and has a beach on the inside of the sand bar which is much safer for children. Baleal, an international surfing venue, offers calm shelving beaches as well as the high surf.
Cortém countryside offers great opportunities for walks and excursions, and with the pool area provides a holiday atmosphere which can become addictive with good wine on tap!
We, of course, would be delighted to give you a wine tasting and show you the winery. We can also offer not just Cortém wines but those of neighbouring wineries which we also know and like. So if you are wine lovers this is the place to get to know interesting wines in Portugal which are not seen on supermarket shelves!

Wunderschön!
Wir waren 12 Tage im Juni Gäste bei Helga und Chris und waren begeistert von Ihrer Gastfreundschaft und dem wunderschön eingerichteten Haus. Der Pool ist nur für die Gäste und man kann dort sehr gut abschalten und die traumhafte Landschaft genießen. Helga und Chris waren mit Ihrer unaufdringlichen Art jederzeit als Ratgeber, Weinexperten und anregende Gesprächspartner verfügbar. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht und in jeder Ecke entdeckt man kleine “Wow-s”. Besonders die Bücher, die man übrigens alle lesen darf, die Spiele, die CDs, die Gemälde haben uns überrascht. Danke für alles! Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!!! Heike und Jürgen aus Bobingen
A special place
A great place to call ”home”. It’s extremely beautiful, peaceful and private. It has everything you need.
Helga and Chris went way beyond, they made us feel so special and taken care of.
We have loved our time here and we will be back!
Schöner Familienurlaub
Wir hatten einen fantastischen Familienurlaub in Cortem. Die Unterkunft ist sehr gut ausgestattet und hat einen sehr schönen Pool und Terrassen zum Entspannen. Die Umgebung lädt zu abwechslungsreichen Ausflügen ein. Für uns war jeden Tag etwas Spannendes dabei, ob Strand oder in die Stadt auf den Markt oder zu den vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Ganz besonders an dem Urlaub war der herzliche Empfang durch Helga und Chris, die mit ihrer freundlichen Art und vielen Tipps weitergeholfen haben.
Fabulous location
We loved staying here, surrounded by nature and very welcoming hosts. The accommodation has everything needed for a self-catering holiday. We were very grateful for the swimming pool as we had arrived in the midst of a heatwave.
