Casa das Marés

Top choice in Peniche


At the picturesque, windswept tip of Baleal stands one of the area's most unusual accommodation options. Three sisters originally inherited this dramatically perched house from their parents and divided it into three parts – each of which now serves as its own little B&B run by two surviving brothers-in-law and one of the sisters.

Breezy, inviting rooms all have great close-up sea views, and the sound of the breaking waves below is magical. Each of the downstairs sitting areas are different, but cosy, and the entire place is loaded with character. Worth reserving ahead (no English at No 3, FYI).
