Vila Vicosa

Although we were supposedly booked to stay in Estremoz, when we arrive we found there'd been another 'stuff up' so after a couple of quick phone calls (and a quick look around - it is beautiful) we were on our way just a few further kilometres to Vila Vicosa.  It really doesn't seem to matter where you stay, they are all beautiful.

Our room


I know I'm obsessed with bathrooms,
but I insist on nice, clean facilities when I travel!


View from the window

The beautiful courtyard - orange trees everywhere












Happy campers.......it's dinner time!

Too cold for us to use this time




Original frescoes many of which are attributed to a nun
who took her vows here in 1652 and here she remained
until her death in 1723







The Ducal Palace
