The Pousada was originally the ruined Convento de Nossa Senhora de Esperança and visitors will find within its grounds both a preserved 13th Century Chapel and an amphitheatre.

There are twenty three rooms and one suite with a restaurant and bar. For the convenience of guests there is a swimming pool and we also recommend you consider a visit to the Castle of Belmonte.
