Herdade da Hera

A wonderful experience: the animals live in nature, are very sociable and truly not afraid of humans, to the point of joining us for aperitif time. It will remain a wonderful memory. The owners are also very kind. I highly recommend it for the owners' kindness, the experience with the animals and the setting. The Batista family, the yellow van—thank you again.

Perfect place, right in the middle of nature. Very friendly welcome and pleasant atmosphere in this little paradise. Highly recommended.

Simply a dream for relaxing! :) Such lovely people and animals. One day quickly turned into three. We will come back! A wonderful place.

We planned to stay one night and ended up staying for four- that says it all..! An absolute gem of a place: a truly beautiful farm, filled with happy animals living their best lives, and run by the friendliest family. Victor helped us translate when we spoke to a workshop, and we had the pleasure of tasting eggs from the hens, chillies and peppers from the garden and Victor even gave us delicious mushrooms he picked in the forest. We’ll be back!

Super-friendly quinta with lots of animals, but otherwise a very quiet place to relax with everything you need.

An absolute recommendation. The hosts are very friendly; we immediately felt comfortable and welcome. The toilets and showers are very clean. You can see and touch animals all over the farm. The dogs and horses roam freely. We liked the pigs best—they love being petted. One night turned into two. We would gladly have spent even more time there.

We arrived as a family a little late for a two-night stay. A peaceful place where we received lots of attention. For children there are football goals, archery, table football and even free-roaming animals. My five-year-old son loved it. Well done on your facilities, and best wishes for the future.

Absolutely the best place we visited in Portugal. A beautiful farm with the nicest people and animals. Heaven for children and adults. Will be back in the future. Thank you for everything :)

We had a great time in this farm. you have all you need to resupply and to relax. we had a great time with all the farm animals, and the ponies are very friendly:) thank you very much:)

Excellent experience. Vitor and Vanessa are very friendly, the children loved interacting with the animals, the play area and the space to cycle freely. Thank you, and we hope to return!

A lovely stopover at a charming property where the animals roam freely. Restful night and welcoming owner. You will feel at home here. I recommend it!

Excellent welcome. Clean, quiet and relaxing place.

We arrived in our hippie bus and were enthusiastically and warmly welcomed. Beautiful surroundings, plenty of clean sanitary facilities, and a perfect communal kitchen with every convenience. You become one with nature. The animals roam freely and are very friendly. In short, highly recommended! Perfect for every type of camper! We wanted to stay for one day but are making it three. A truly wonderful place!

Friendly owners with equally friendly animals. very nice spot nice surroundings and it was nice quiet.

When we arrived, we had to get used to the dry field where we were parked. But when the ponies and lovely dogs came by, it immediately became cozy. Electricity is only available for those who can park near the hookup. Fortunately, we were able to borrow a long extension cable. The facilities are basic, with showers separated by curtains, but they are exceptionally clean. One night was enough for us.

Wow! Simply WOW. Untouched nature. Friendly farming family. Wonderful animals, all of them sweet, and they are allowed to roam freely. A paradise for children. For adults, a wonderful place to simply be and relax. €20 for two people with electricity. We were given fresh eggs as a farewell gift. 10,000 stars.

We stayed here for a total of five nights, although we initially only planned to stay one. It was so, so beautiful. Viktor and his family were incredibly kind and even brought us fresh eggs twice. We also felt very comfortable with all the animals. We can only recommend that everyone stay here for a few nights! ☺️

We spent two relaxing days here, perfect for switching off. Very child-friendly. Everything necessary is available; it is not super modern, but it is clean and practical. Thanks to the operators—their English was excellent—for the lovely time here.

We spent two wonderful days and nights here with our two children. The approach is steep, but afterward an animal and vegetable paradise awaits :) Family-run and super friendly! Fresh eggs in the morning as a gift! Everyone felt comfortable, and it is currently firefly season ;) Our highlights: clean facilities, ponies visiting the camper, entering the animal enclosures, and lovely people!

A beautiful place! We were the only guests and felt very comfortable. The dogs are very well behaved and not intrusive. This morning we received fresh eggs. Thank you! But beware: watch your food if you cook or eat in front of your van ;) the ponies are very curious and hungry. Thank you for this lovely spot!

Charming place full of farm animals, dogs and horses. The girl showed us around the whole site and we were able to get close to the animals—amazing! Very peaceful night; we left wanting more.

We spent two wonderful days and two nights here! The place has beautiful energy, surrounded only by greenery and incredibly beautiful views. Wonderful people and animals live on the farm. We had a truly lovely time and did not want to leave at all. The only minor drawback was that the bathroom was not completely clean, with a dirty floor. If you are not looking for luxury but rather a completely peaceful place with a great atmosphere, this is the right choice!

I stayed with them at the beginning of December. First I spent one night in their accommodation and then several nights with the motorhome. I loved it.

A really beautiful farm with very helpful owners, who immediately showed me everything and were flexible about checkout. Only four stars because I find €16 for one person and a car—not a van—a little expensive, considering that the women's showers were unusable at the time and the facilities overall are somewhat improvised and partly neglected.

After a long “ride” with a caravan in tow, we arrived here in the pouring rain in the afternoon and were warmly welcomed. Our caravan was towed by tractor to the place we had chosen. When the rain eased, the owner came and showed us everything. The animals roam freely, the location is so peaceful and the host family so kind that we stayed an extra day.

We stayed here for two nights and it was really lovely. The host family is very kind and always available if you need help. In the evenings, many dogs are outside and are very friendly toward guests. There are many different animals, plus common areas with hot showers and clean toilets. Highly recommended even in the off-season!

We had a great time here with our young son. The owner is excellent. We went on two hikes, and the area is perfect for that. Highly recommended!

Highly recommended. The owner is very friendly and showed us everything. A little paradise for children! Lots of very friendly animals. We will return if we come to Portugal again.

We arrived just after dark and were welcomed in and shown where to park. Level ground, clean WC and hot shower. We were delivered fresh eggs in the morning. Beautifully quiet and peaceful place.
