On a visit to PORTUGAL during the latter part of September ’05, we had a few days in Lisbon, an 8-day cruise on the Douro River with CroisiEurope (Strasbourg, France; phone 0825 333 777, fax 03 88 32 49 96 or visit www.croisieurope.com) and a few days each in Nazaré and Évora.

In Nazaré we had the most wonderful accommodations in a B&B, Quinta das Rosas (Caminho Real-Pederneira, 2450-060 Nazaré, Portugal; phone +351-262-562706 or visit www.quintadasrosas.com). Their website is very accurate and so are the driving directions.

The B&B is situated on top of a steep cliff in the small community of Pederneira. From our room we had a spectacular view over the ocean, including the towns of Nazaré and Sitio. Room prices range from €35 to €80 ($43-$97), depending on the season, including a wonderful breakfast.

The hosts are extremely helpful and speak English.
