We Live at Tomar about 40 mins inland from the Silaver Coast, its a lovely area lots to do and see, lakes, rivers, mountains, forests, lovely old historic villages and Towns, as well as lots to do in the way of entertainment, theatre, cinema, bars, clubs, resturants, museums, art galleries etc. the road and rail system is excellent where we are much better than some of the places nearer the coast, dont forget some of these coastal towns close down and are almost ghost towns in the winter, better to live in a 'real' town that has lots of life all year round. we also have the 40 mile long lake of Castello Do Bode right on our doorstep, much nicer with its stunning scenery and lovely sandy bays for swimming, calm fresh water. great for sailing, skiing, canoeing, speedboats etc. and Lisbon airport only 1 hour away.
its a fantastic area, oh and property prices are much better value for money than places near the coast.
