This romantic a-frame cabin is a short walk up the hill from the shared kitchen. It has great views over the lake and the far hills. It can be made up with either twin beds or double. It is simple but comfortable, as are all our cabins. Our policy is “Make yourself at home”.

Over the Edge Farm is a beautiful off-grid eco-camp, and our home. Accommodation is in simple wooden cabins or caravans, with all bedding supplied. The facilities are designed to blend in to the landscape unobtrusively and the spaces are simple and clean. We have warm showers and flush toilets in a small bathroom block.
Breakfast is provided and you can join us for lunch and dinner, as the shared cooking facilities are limited. Snacks and drinks are available as well. There are restaurants in the local village of Sao Martinho das Amoreiras, 8 km away for those who have their own transport.

We live here with our horses, who wonder freely over the whole 30 hectare property. The place is a haven of tranquillity surrounded by wild nature where you can break away from every day things and drop off the edge of the world. Far from the light pollution and electric hum of civilisation, the expansive silence encourages you to relax, breathe, regenerate as you enjoy long views over the Portuguese hills, or take a stroll through the magical cork oak forest, or go for a swim in our little lake.

It’s the perfect holiday for the meditative nature lover, who enjoys the good things of life. Doing nothing is easy here. But if you want to be a little more busy and involved we have various activities you can choose to sign up for, such as distilling aromatic plants, nature meditations and self-exploration with the horses, or how to use essential oils for health. Full details on our website.

We do want to make sure that everyone who visits enjoys their stay, so you should know that Over the Edge is primarily a working farm. Our days are organised around taking care of the animals, caring for the land and distilling essential oils. We live with horses, dogs and cats who move freely around the place, so a love of animals is a prerequisite for an enjoyable visit. You need to take into consideration that we are far from ‘civilization’ and there is no public transport. Also you need to have a reasonable level of mobility to negotiate the slopes in and around the camp.
