| One could get lost in time In this sunny land with superb beaches, and olive groves, vineyards and fields of wheat that make up Portugal’s countryside. Remnants of its great seafaring past are visible among the cobbled streets in parts of its modern cities, and brooding castles overlooking the ocean, Modern tourist amenities abound, including golf courses and every kind of water sport, but Portugal is also filled with alternative accommodation in the ‘turismo de habitacão’, private homes that open their doors to visitors and which range from grand manor houses to warm hospitable farmhouses.
