Lovely little historic house in perfect location
This little house, snuggled inside the walls of the old city is a real delight. The kitchen is well appointed, bed is super comfortable, and everyone associated with the booking and check-in were very helpful. Location is excellent.

Awesome old place in a really old city!
This is an amazing little house in a cool old walled city. They’ve done a great job giving you some of the amenities from the present, while also preserving much of the past the house. If you happen to visit in the winter keep in mind this is a very old home and you’re gonna wanna bring some cosy clothing and slippers. Host was generous and responsive. Would stay again but would rather visit again when it’s warmer lol

Mostly Good
The apartment was lovely - a traditional house with rock walls and exposed timber roof inside the old city walls. Our only complaint was the access, as guest cars are not allowed inside the city walls. We parked at the car park and faced a 10-15 minute walk over VERY uneven rock streets and steep grades dragging our suitcases. Check in was easy and the owner was very responsive.

Great experience!
This was a lively place to stay, inside the castle walls. If you’re driving I recommend parking just outside the walls and walking through the gate. The apartment is not far from the indicated gate given by the owner. Enjoy the castle’

Great location inside the walls!
Great location and communication with Paula was very good! The accommodations were perfect for my family of four and there are two bathrooms which is a plus. The bed is very comfortable which is important for me. We were even provided with a starter kit of bread, fruit and milk which was a nice touch. Highly recommend the charming property if you are checking out Óbidos! Some have noted parking was an issue but it was no problem for us - although we did park outside of the walls.

The Charming House Obidos is Beautiful!
The Charming House Obidos is a wonderful little house. It is fully modernized with a loft bedroom and bath above and a cozy living room and kitchen below. Our hosts made sure it was well stocked with snacks and breakfast supplies. The town of Obidos is the most beautiful of all the very beautiful towns we visited in Portugal. Don’t miss it! The Charming House is in a quiet corner of the village next to the ancient wall. Can’t say enough great things about this property!

So much better than I ever imagined. This cute little house within the walled city is amazing.
First off I want to say how amazing the city of Óbidos is. This is far better than a hotel. This is an entire private house and it's within the city walls. Looking out the window you have a view of the old wall that surrounds the city. The house definitely has an old world feel but with all modern amenities you'd hope for. There are 2 bathrooms also which was very nice. The bed upstairs was very very comfortable. There is extra linen and pillows. Our son slept on the couch downstairs and they arranged a crib for our baby as well. Very accommodating. There was a washer/dryer combo which came in handy for us. This house is situated right next to one of the wall entrances which turned out to be extremely convinient for us to come and go with a car. Parking is a bit of a challenge but definitely not terrible. After unloading our bags right at the front door we went and parked outside the wall. We found a lucky parking spot that was only 50 meters from the house. There is more parking up the street which is probably 200 meters. I could go on about how wonderful this place is. So much positive to say about it. I also want to thank our hosts for arranging to stay late for us to arrive at 10pm. The only constructive feedback I have to help improve things for future renters. 1. Finding the place was difficult and I consider myself pretty good with directions and I'm fluent in Portuguese. So for me to have difficulties I can only assume others will (I also read someone else's feedback about this same thing). Let me try to help. The entrance into the city through a small "hole in the wall" is big enough for a car even though it may not appear to be. There is a "do not enter" sign but it does specify (in Portuguese) "except local residents" . You can enter there to reach the house and unload. Note that it is very tight and if you're a bad driver you'll probably scratch your doors. If you're not comfortable on tight roads then do not go into the city. Also note that per the map we were sent for check in I drove around several times looking for the house from the pic before I realized we were supposed to park and walk into the city to the house. Only after did I realize we could drive to the front door (the streets do get crowded so gotta be quick). 2. The water heater is small. We had about 8 minutes of hot water. Stagger your showers and plan accordingly. As a lover of warm showers I was disappointed. Despite these things I would 100% rent again here.

PICTURESQUE
Just an amazing place and experience. Picturesque and idealistic in all aspects. The place, the town, the area are all perfect. The only suggestion we have is a more detailed description of check in! It is hard to find your way if you have a car- lots of narrow roads and tunnels to pass through to get inside the castle walls and too the Airbnb. Just a better heads up/description on the listing. Other than that, would definitely come back again!

Wonderful Obidos Castle!
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our 10 day stay inside the Obidos Castle walls. The house is very appointed and Paula, the owner, very attentive. The village is quiet, quaint and very relaxing. We travelled to area golf courses by taxi and marvelled at the friendly service and quality of it all! Our stay was very memorable, thank you so much! The only improvement would be an upgrade to a new flat screen TV and perhaps a better cable or dish.

Enchanted By This Magical Home...
We could not have chosen a more magical place to make our home base in Óbidos. From the first communication, we knew Paula's place was going to be amazing. The minute we walked up to the front door we were enchanted. Every anticipated need was met from a refridgerator stocked with necessities: milk, butter, bread and homemade jam, to a fruit basket with deliciousness nestled inside. The kitchen was equiped with everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. This quaint place felt like home almost instantly. Lush robes and the best bed linens we have ever slept upon made each night a dream. There is no way to aptly describe how very wonderful this apartment was for us. It was actually difficult to leave it and the delightful town of Óbidos. We look forward to a return one day soon. Obrigada Paula.

Through the Castle Gates Historical Romantic Adventure Awaits!
This is our third visit to Obidos and still find it enchanting. Step back in time and enjoy! We would recommend it for a great getaway. The horse and carts chauferring the tourists around the busy narrow cobbled streets. The dim lit pubs beckoning one to sample their beers and ginga. Try not to miss the Chocolate Festival - definitely worth a visit. Truly romantic! There is a knack driving and parking within the castle walls- small car advisable. Lovely quaint home with welcome packs. Not noisy. Good Wi-Fi. Quite a comfortable bed. A good assortment of kitchen equipment. No handrail on stairs. Two wc's and good shower Lighting adequate for most. Tv wasn't important to us. Thanks to Paula for making us feel welcome.

A magical casa!
We were delighted with this historic casa that sits just inside the walls of Obidos. The loft style home was well appointed and had everything we needed during our stay. It was tastefully decorated and we loved the authentic stone walls and large wooden beams throughout! Paula and Concha were excellent hosts and quickly answered all of our questions. Upon arrival, the hosts had left some fruit, jams, coffee, tea, milk, bread and other staples that we were able to have for breakfast the next day - nice added touch. We were able to park the car right beside the home. Minutes away from the casa you can walk all the streets of Obidos. Plenty of restaurants minutes away, and fine Portuguese-style restaurants outside the walls less than 1 km, including grocery stores. We were glad that we were able to experience this home and town and would highly recommend it for couples of all ages! We will be back!!

Wonderful Winter Getaway
My husband and I travelled to Obidos the day after Christmas. The house was even lovelier in person! It's a very cozy and open space. Very well kept and clean. We enjoyed using the fireplace! We were greeted by a lovely woman, named Maria, who made us feel very welcome. We were surprised to have fruit, milk, bread and cake waiting for us when we arrived! This was our first visit to Obidos and its a lovely town with family friendly feel. During this time of year there are lots of Christmas decorations and music which we enjoyed. The weather was lovely compared to England and the food was absolutely delicious! We really enjoyed the central location of the house and we could easily walk to the nearest grocery store to get food to cook. Though we preferred to stay in Obidos for the course of our visit, there are lots of surrounding towns which we could have gone to see - hopefully we will do this another time. The owner, Paula, was very kind and very helpful! She quickly responded to any questions we had while planning and preparing for our trip. We hope to be able to visit again and when we do we hope to be able to stay here!

Beautiful hideaway
We spent two weeks at Paula's house in Obidos this July 2016. It is comfortably furnished with good quality towels and sheets and furniture. There was some fruit, bread, butter, coffee and milk for our arrival which was very welcome after a long day's journey. The town of Obidos is well worth a visit and we felt very welcome. Concha gave us some good places to eat locally and we made good use of her suggestions; thank you Concha! We recommend Paula's house very much and suggest anyone looking to visit Obidos stays in her house. Obrigada Paula! Best wishes from Barbara and Richard.

Treasure in Obidos
I had visited Obidos 30 years ago as a young student and dreamed of it ever since. Paula 's house is a jewel with in the walls of the city. The fireplace was a bonus as is was cold outside. This home is cozy and well appointed. The decor is lovely with treasures all around. The closest grocery store is Pingo Doce, which also has firewood. We spent 4 lovely magical days.
