Swimming pool
How you can enjoy life more than by swimming on a hill? From the swimming pool, you have a marvellous view. Lounge chairs, (usually) glorious weather, a good book and a glass of cold white wine will complete your holiday bliss. The swimming pool measures 6 x 12 meters and the depth varies from 1.10 to 1.80 meters. The water is cleaned by a salt-based system.
Pétanque
Next to the swimming pool you find a pétanque playing area where you can practice your pétanque skills.
Twice a year – once in spring and once in autumn – Monte do Casarão organises a painting week. The course is suitable for both beginners and advanced students. You can paint or draw using any technique and any materials you like.

January. It has been raining almost continuously since November. It was much needed. All the reservoirs are full and nature is thriving. The medronho is in full bloom and all kinds of mushrooms are sprouting from the ground. This includes the trompette de la mort, or horn of plenty, in English. Although you wouldn't immediately guess it from its French name, it's a delicious mushroom. Really.
