Five-star local accommodation for the friendliness, welcome, service and kindness of Katia who helped us during our stay. Mr. Luís, the owner, is a cyclist and despite being on vacation, was always available to give me tips on the routes to follow. I highly recommend it, and the cat "Pedal" is a little dear who only wants to be pampered.

Malhou owes its name to the rhythmic sound of hammers and the shine of forges: in times past, this parish was famous for the talent of its blacksmiths, masters in the art of shaping iron with skill and strength. It was this craft that marked the identity of the land and gave it its name.

Swing built next to Alcanede Castle. It stands out for its location and superb view towards the south.

Alcanede Castle is located in the parish of the same name, in the municipality and district of Santarém, Portugal. It is believed that the earliest human occupation of the site dates back to a prehistoric castrum, fortified at the time of the Roman occupation and later reinforced and expanded. At the time of the Christian Reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula it was taken by Count D. Henrique (1091) and later recovered by the Moors. Its definitive possession was obtained from the conquest by King D. Afonso Henriques (1112-1185), in the context of the conquests of Santarém and Lisbon. Its first mayor was D. Gonçalo Mendes de Sousa, chief butler of D. Afonso Henriques, who was responsible for rebuilding and expanding the walled enclosure and populating and organizing the town, before 1163. The 1531 earthquake shook its structure, marking the beginning of its decline. With no military function or strategic importance, there was no interest in repairing it, plunging it into abandonment and oblivion. At the beginning of the 1940s, it was subject to restoration work seeking to return it to its approximate form at the end of the Middle Ages, conserving it as a historical landmark in the region's landscape.

The Fonte do Peão, built in 1884, is one of the symbols of the parish of Monsanto. It is covered in tiles that depict rural life. The water in the Fonte do Peão comes from a spring and flows regularly throughout the year. According to information obtained from local residents, the water is good for human consumption and is used as a source of water for the many travellers who pass through there.
