Description

At a peaceful property with its own swimming pool (17m x 7m), garden with pomegranate/fig/apple/pear/orange/avocado/lemon/persimmon trees that you can enjoy, and lots of grass to walk around, share experiences, and watch the sunset.
At the far side of the garden (separated from the parking location and the main house), our chickens provide us with fresh eggs daily, and our sheeps give us a sense of calmness (we don’t eat them, they are our gardeners).
We allow for maximum two caravans/minivans/motorhomes per day so that you can enjoy a private experience.
If you are into reading you can borrow (free) English books focused on personal development, healthy life, marketing, and business.

Additional services, subject to availability, paid:
Access to the swimming pool: 5 euros per day per family
Electricity: 3 euros per day
Fresh eggs: 2 euros per 6 eggs
A kitchen for washing dishes (does not have warm water) equiped with microwaves and coffee machine: 2 Euros per day
Tango classes (Dimitris has been a tango dancer for 11 years and author of two best selling tango books): 30 euros per class
Homemade creams made with organic ingredients: consult with us.

Please inform us in advance if possible regarding the above options to confirm availability.

Join us for a safe, comfortable, and peaceful visit.

The setting

The house is surrounded by green, from grass to fruit trees to a forest right in front of us with some cute little trails and a little river.
The only thing that reminds us of traffic here is the horn of the local fisherman who passes 5 mornings per week to sell fresh fish.
During the autumn and winter mornings you can see a thin layer of fog covering the forest closeby, that slowly dissolves under the sun's warmth.
If you decide to swim in the pool during the night, you just need to open the pool's underwater lights and, if the sky is clear, swim under the stars (keep in mind though that the pool is not heated).
We have space for 4 caravans/motorohomes.
Both me and Helena work from home, so we can be around if you need us on short notice.
If you feel like going horse riding or kayaking, let us know and we can book it for you.

The spots

When it comes to the parking spots, you will park next to the swimming pool, where you can see the nature and the sunset.

The sanitary facilities

If you opt in for access to a kitchen for cooking and washing dishes you can access it 24/7.

The amenities

The kitchen is equipped with a microwave oven, tableware, and pans.
If something is missing, you simply let us know and we bring it from the house.
If you opt in for access to the kitchen, you can also charge small devices (mobiles, laptops, tablets).

The activities

You can book private Tango classes with Dimitris on short notice.

We can book for you kayaking (~3.5 hours at a calm river, with as many breaks as you need) or horse riding sessions.
In Coimbra, about 7 minutes away from here by car, you can also do paddle on the river.
Our swimming pool is open 24/7.
You can also take a 30 minute walk in the forest closeby.

Other things

In walking distance you can also find a bakery, pharmacy, restaurant, a mini market, and ATM.
We believe in the beauty of people.
We all have inside us stories to share, love to give, and passions to explore.
We are looking for people that will respect the calmness and peace of this place.


Rules

You can access the property at any hour, but if you plan to arrive after 9pm we need to know in advance.
No smoking is allowed inside closed spaces (like the kitchen or the rooms).
Children are free to play and run around, but this space is not baby proof and we recommend adult supervision. In our experience, children really enjoy playing with the chickens or our two dogs, running around, and collecting fruits and eggs.

Extras

Possibility of breakfast (€6 / person)

Omellete made out of fresh eggs we collect from our chickens, bread, juice or coffee or tea, fruits.

  • What more can I say, exceptional but all too rare in this beautiful country.
    Many thanks to Dimitri and Helena.

  • Very disappointed... 22€ just for parking (asking price 9€!) next to a fence and 3€ more for using a coffee machine and taking a cold shower... might as well go camping! ????

  • We had a wonderful time with Dimitris and Elena. What a wonderful meeting! They are both very welcoming and warm. Their place is spacious and comfortable. Dimitris shared his passion for tango with us. We felt so at home that we plan to come back for a week to continue our discovery of tango and spend more quality time with Dimitris and Elena in their little haven of peace.

  • Very nice meeting, very kind hosts, we were pampered... the place is perfect to rest after the day's visits... swimming pool appreciated by all!

  • Helena( and her dad), Dimitri and Andrea welcomed us with great care and kindness. We spent 3 nights in peace and quiet, enjoyed the huge swimming pool and discovered some inspiring people! They took a lot of time to help us discover their world (thanks to Dimitri for his juggling sessions!). The kids didn't want to leave. Thank you again. We recommend it to people looking for simplicity in relationships.

  • Great private campsite that has everything you need and a little more. E.g. a lovingly prepared breakfast by Helena and her upcoming soccer star Andreas. Many thanks to Helena for the warm care, we come back very gladly, Claudia and Dietmar

  • Dimitris, Helena, Andreas and their 2 dogs were very nice to us and checked if we needed something. If you come to this beautiful house you could enjoy the swimming pool, sweet fruits, farm animals, dogs, playing with Andreas or just resting. For us it was perfect for the night: it's safe and calm. There were a lot of flies but apparently this is unusual. We would love to come back and stay longer !

  • We stayed for one night to visit Coimbra and were welcomed warmly by Dimitris. It’s a peaceful, relaxed place. We could meet all the animals (chicken, sheeps, dogs, cats) and jump in the pool for refreshment :) Bathroom and kitchen sinks were clean. Highly recommend!

  • I was received with great kindness in this family property. A sweet and pleasant stopover.
    Flat location next to the pool. A pool house dedicated to the traveler with kitchen, living room and bathroom facilities.
    The environment of
    Countryside with chickens and sheep.
    Shops at 5 minutes walking distance.
    Coimbra at 5mn by car.
    What more could you ask for?
    To come back in summer to enjoy the pool!
    A very nice stopover. Thank you for your time.

  • The best place to stay in coimbra!
    Very welcoming hosts, who come to chat, access to the pool, to the fruits of the garden.
    Very quiet and relaxing surroundings, perfect for rest.
    We met more than hosts but friends!

  • Dimitris and Helena welcomed us with great pleasure and a smile
    The garden is nice with sheep and chickens
    The kitchen, toilet, shower and swimming pool are at your disposal, which is a good point.

  • Our first stay with Homecamper was a complete success. A beautiful place with a very sympathetic family. We will definitely come again.
