Marla has a wonderful house, we needed time to ourselves, we used the garden to relax in (thank goodness we had good weather) took in the sights when the crowds died down and lit the fire in the evenings. Perfect.

An absolutely stunning property. The garden is a wonder of tranquility, with a grill and an outside brick oven. There are three bathrooms, all different. The beds were small, but comfortable. Would definitely stay here again. You won’t want to leave!

You could spend all your time just looking at the beautiful interior. Furnished and decorated in the old style, this home is like the TARDIS in Dr. Who - seems tiny on the outside, but it is very large on the inside, with a lovely garden to boot. There are four bedrooms, so it is perfect for a large family. It is also nicely located within the walls of the old city, just a short walk to all the shops and restaurants. It's a little cold in the winter but should be perfect the rest of the year. The host was very accommodating.

We loved the home! It was just as you see and this was perfect for us. We came for a weekend in December so we also had fun in Obidos with all the additional Christmas festivities. Because it was December it was also chilly but there is a fireplace which warmed up the main living room very nicely and there were electric heaters in all of the bedrooms and bathrooms. The garden gets afternoon sun so after we walked around most of the day we sat outside and enjoyed the sun and relaxed. We would stay here again for sure.

The house is inside the walls of beautiful Obidos, and is quintessentially Portuguese. The walled garden is stunning and peaceful, perfumed by jasmine with cascading wisteria.
Maria was an attentive and gracious host. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

Everything was perfect for a house which is over 300 years old. The only issue is trying to find the house. The streets have no name and there is no address on the door. Dragging your luggage 800 meters in cobble stones could be a challenge. Once you overcome this you will enjoy your stay.

Maria provided such a relaxing lovely stay at her beautiful home inside the walled city. Was so easy and fun. Parking was not an issue because we simple parked in the inexpensive lot just outside the walls and walked in. (Something the town should think about - keep the cars completely out. It's easy and being car-free is kind of wonderful). Go to Obidos!!

This is a historic property tucked inside the walled city of Obidos. Wow, what a delight and honor to step inside and marvel at the antiques and vestiges of a long ago era. The walled garden added so much pleasure during our stay as the place for morning coffee and afternoon drinks. Maria Joao assured that we arrived safely and had the house ready for us. Being inside the wall of the city allowed us to wander Obidos early in the morning and later in the evening when the throngs of tourists who flock inside the gates are far fewer. During the day, we wended our way out of the walled city by car and visited other nearby places such as Tomar, Caldas da Rainha, Cortem winery, and Salinas de Rio Maior. We were always pleased to come back to our "home" and make our way on foot to one of the wonderful restaurants for drinks and a meal. Thank you Maria Joao for sharing this historic and lovingly cared-for property.

Our stay was fantastic. The house is beautifully decorated, and the fireplace makes it very cozy. Despite the house being historic, it was easy to get temperature of the different spaces comfortable. We visited in February, so it was a little cold to spend time outside, but the garden was beautiful. Our host was very attentive and helped with anything we asked for.

Lovely old house with amazing mature garden. Our favourite house in Portugal, truly exceptional. Obidos is incredibly beautiful, we enjoyed spending time exploring every little corner of it. The place is full of love and character. Maria is an amazing and very generous host. She was always available to respond to any questions. We felt very spoiled by being surrounded by so many beautiful antique objects. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable and clean bedrooms. Excellent location, within walls, but off the beaten tourist track. We had wonderful early morning walks on the walls before the crowd arrived. We loved spending time in the beautiful garden in the summer heat. Parking and driving within the walls can be tricky, but we always managed to park near the house. There are loads of tourists until 8pm, but they are mainly on the main street and on the walls. People stop by the house and take photos from the nearby section of the wall, but we didn't mind it. We just felt very privileged!. People disappear around 8pm and the evenings, nights and mornings (until 9am) are incredibly peaceful and quiet. We slept with open windows. On our last evening there were noisy drones circling over the neighbourhood and garden for a long time. That was a bit annoying. Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful house Maria!

A trip back in time to an incredible town, in a magical home full of life and beautiful objects and art. We all said we could have stayed at Wisteria house forever.

The property is within the fortified walls of the castle and delivers charm and history. The granite pathways set you back in history while you wonder the market, cafes and sites.

We loved this spot. It was magical. Plenty of room and lots of charm. The backyard was gorgeous. The plum and lemon trees were delicious! The views of the castle wall from the bedrooms were unforgettable. We also loved our host. She was attentive and kind. I’d love to return to this space!

The house is as beautiful in reality as it seemed in the photographs. Spacious, charming, and full of history and antiques. Comfortable and well appointed also, with everything we needed . The garden was also lovely, with beautiful old tiles making interesting garden features, and a wisteria covered veranda and balcony. We were delighted with everything, and everything was exactly as it had been described by Home away.
Finally I would like to say, how thoughtful, accomodating and considerate we found Maria to be. Her great kindness was very much appreciated, by us, when we first arrived in Obidos.
I would not hesitate to recommend this house to anyone, especially to those who enjoy history, art and culture, as well as sun, cherry liqueur, and wine, and we would be very happy to return to this lovely house ourselves.
