Casas da Cerca are a Tourism in a rural environment that evolved from the reconstruction of ancient buildings which because of their own specificities, either on the way they are constructed, with natural materials, either because of the place where they are located, deserved to be reconstructed and adapted to the modern times for every body’s enjoyment. The Houses exist for approximately sixty years, in the property of Herdade de S. Nuno, by the River Mira, in the “Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park”, in one of its most protected areas making part of a rural and natural environmental of excellence.

Casas da Cerca Cottages are constituted by three Houses, Casa da Adega, Casa do Tanque and Casa do Pomar. Are located in a confined and paradisiacal spot of the property, and are surrounded by nature where one can find among other, the arbutus tree, the cork tree (the typical tree of the Alentejo), the olive tree, etc. in the best panoplies of habitats that nature can give you.

In this place where silence speaks at the sounds of the birds, is still possible sometimes hear the fox and sense the wild boar. From the Houses to the River Mira it’s no more than a step (15 to 20 minutes by foot), in a unique walk overflowed with beauty. At the river one can be delighted with a bathe in salty waters.
