Lovely old house with amazing mature garden. Our favourite house in Portugal, truly exceptional. Obidos is incredibly beautiful, we enjoyed spending time exploring every little corner of it. The place is full of love and character. Maria is an amazing and very generous host. She was always available to respond to any questions. We felt very spoiled by being surrounded by so many beautiful antique objects. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable and clean bedrooms. Excellent location, within walls, but off the beaten tourist track. We had wonderful early morning walks on the walls before the crowd arrived. We loved spending time in the beautiful garden in the summer heat. Parking and driving within the walls can be tricky, but we always managed to park near the house. There are loads of tourists until 8pm, but they are mainly on the main street and on the walls. People stop by the house and take photos from the nearby section of the wall, but we didn't mind it. We just felt very privileged!. People disappear around 8pm and the evenings, nights and mornings (until 9am) are incredibly peaceful and quiet. We slept with open windows. On our last evening there were noisy drones circling over the neighbourhood and garden for a long time. That was a bit annoying. Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful house Maria!
