The locale around Casa de Olival is unspoiled, natural and often stunning. Surrounded by mountains, rivers, gorges, forests, picturesque villages, miles of sandy beaches, this area has it all.
The nearest large town is Ansião which has everything a small town should have: restaurants, cinema, tennis courts, a football team, shops and bars. It has a market every Saturday morning where you buy anything from furniture to rabbits or a pair of jeans.
