Pousada Mosteiro de Amares

In the search for contact with the nature, there's nothing better than having contact and returning to a place where you can find all the luxuries and comforts of civilization.

Thinking about that, the Pousada offers a magnificent swimming pool in marble, with a smaller one for children, embedded in one of the grazing meadows, and sheltered from the wind. For maximum convenience, the pool has a support bar and changing rooms so you only have to leave your sun lounger when you desire.

The bar of the Pousada, by the comfortable living room with a huge fireplace, is crossed by the river that comes from the mountains and carries water to the tanks and lakes of the monastery.

It is the ideal place to have a warm and comforting drink on cold days, and the perfect atmosphere for a nightcap or a coffee after dinner. The restaurant area at the Pousada of Santa Maria do Bouro is unique: set in the old kitchen of the Monastery, with the reconstructed original chimney, two impressive ovens and small food heating stoves cut into the stone, it is decorated with a huge granite table that has withstood all looting and bad weather, where the breakfast and dessert buffet is served.

Designed with events in mind, the Pousada de Santa Maria do Bouro hosts anniversaries, conferences, meetings and wedding receptions all year round.

The cloister with its original orange trees is perfect for dinners and receptions during the summer. Religious ceremonies can be held in the monastery church, with its wooden vaulted ceiling and 17th century gilded altarpiece.

For civil ceremonies, the cloister, terrace or the orange tree courtyard are perfect choices. The old refectory and the monastery’s granary are perfect for lunches, dinners, parties and launch events. The Winepress room features a part of the original winepress and is ideal for buffet meals and presentations.
