The Quinta da Barreta is set in a beautiful private location with fabulous views across the rolling countryside and to the pretty and historic village of Aldeia de João Pires. The access to the Quinta is a 1.9 km decent dirt track from the village. In the village is a bar/cafe/restaurant and a little shop. The larger village of Aldeia do Bispo is 4.3 km and the town of Penamacor is only 8 km.

Land: 10 hectares (24.7 acres) of fenced, rolling meadows. Ideal for horses etc. There are a few fruit trees, oaks and cork oak trees. There is lots of water on this property. There are three excellent water wells, two of which are capped with a hatch left for access. One of these wells provides fresh spring water to the house. There are three big water pools, one at the top of the land, one in the middle and one at the bottom. Two tend to dry up mid-summer if there is little rain over winter but the middle one always has lots of water. For 8 to 9 months of the year the land is lush and green and there is a little stream running through the property.
