Holiday Rentals in Nelas - A Guide to Nelas
If you fancy a holiday rental in Portugal, in a river valley but think the Duoro has been over-done, why not try a Nelas holiday rental? The Mondego river forms the southern boundary of this Viseu municipality with both Guarda district and Coimbra District. Nelas itself is a pretty little town with the squares and fountains one almost comes to expect. There are grand palaces to visit and the local wines are renowned among wine buffs.
If you prefer your Nelas holiday rental to be a base for something a little more energetic, the mighty 100km long granite ridge of the Serra da Estrela is not far away in neighbouring Guarda. Faults in the granite have weathered to form some amazing rock formations, waterfalls, lakes and, of course, stunning views.
