Casa Vera is a beautiful property set in the unspoilt countryside in a small hamlet called Bemparece, only a short drive from Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo. The property has been recently renovated while retaining traditional features such as high ceilings with wooden beams and cane, the typical thick walls, wooden door and window sills, wooden shutters, and last but not least, the locally made terra cotta floor tiles (aka Santa Catarina tiles). It is a peaceful haven with luscious gardens and numerous seating areas where you can take in the sunshine, read a book in the shade, and watch the vibrant, constantly changing sunsets with views of the rolling hills and the ocean.
