Holiday Rentals in Oliveira de Frades - A Guide to Oliveira de Frades
The municipality of Oliveira de Frades is on the western side of Viseu district, just to the north west of Viseu itself. Consider a holiday rental in Oliveira de Frades if you enjoy such outdoor activities as hill walking, rock climbing and/or fishing.
The river Vouga forms much of the northern boundary of the municipality and here you will find canoeing and other waters sports. Exploring the countryside around, you are quite likely to come across ancient megaliths and dolmens, relics from the iron age.

Types of Holiday Rentals in Oliveira de Frades
Holiday rentals in Oliveira de Frades are typically older traditional buildings and many are quite large with 8 to 10 bedrooms. These Oliveira de Frades holiday rentals are often barn conversions or country mansions but there are also cottages to rent in Oliveira de Frades making delightful secluded hideaways for that peaceful holiday away from it all.
The most unusual Oliveira de Frades holiday rental which I found is an old monastery, set in the hills. This large property (8 bedrooms) would make a wonderful base for a large group to explore the local area.
Swimming pools are not as prevalent here as in other areas but some houses to rent in Oliveira de Frades do have them. There are several river beaches and the water is sparklingly clear and clean.
Oliveira de Frades is rather unusual as it is one of only three municipalities which are in two parts – slightly awkward for the administration but no problem for those enjoying an Oliveira de Frades holiday rental.
The whole of Viseu district is pretty rural but access is made easy by means of the A25 motorway which crosses the municipality just to the south of Oliveira de Frades town itself. As a break from outdoor pursuits, a day in Porto or Guimaraes is perfectly feasible from an Oliveira de Frades holiday rental.
