Your Private Sanctuary in Tomar
Staying at Casa Lorena means immersing yourself in the authentic Portuguese lifestyle. It’s about sipping wine as the sun sets over the river, exploring medieval castles, and savouring local delicacies under the shade of ancient olive trees and small vines.
Indoors, the villa welcomes you with its high-ceilinged living spaces, elegantly curated decor, and a grand fireplace perfect for intimate gatherings. Each bedroom offers a peaceful escape, with sweeping views of the countryside.
A Modernist Masterpiece
Designed in 1971 by Fernão Simões de Carvalho, a distinguished architect and urban planner who worked alongside Le Corbusier and A. Wogenscky, Casa Lorena is an icon of Modernism. Its bold, geometric lines contrast beautifully with the softness of its surroundings—rolling hills, the shimmering river, and the soothing fragrance of eucalyptus and pine.
An Outdoor Paradise
Beyond the villa, nature unfolds in every direction. Wake up to the sound of birdsong, take a morning dip in the river, or simply lose yourself in the endless beauty of Tomar’s landscapes. Here, history and nature intertwine, offering you the chance to create unforgettable moments.
At Casa Lorena, we invite you to be part of our story, to fall in love with this extraordinary place as we have, and to write your own chapter in this idyllic retreat.
Where Heritage Embraces Family Tradition
If you've ever set foot in Tomar, you know how effortlessly it captures the heart. That’s exactly what happened to Pedro every time he visited his great-aunt, Lorena. Her love for this enchanting town was contagious, passing through generations like a cherished family heirloom.
A childhood filled with summers by the river, the scent of pine trees, and the golden glow of the Portuguese sun, made Tomar a place Pedro could never leave behind. His mother, Luisa, the steward of the family legacy, nurtured these roots with care and passed them on to him—a love for heritage embedded deep in their shared story. So, when the opportunity arose, he and his wife, Joana, along with their two children Beatriz and Bernardo embraced the legacy. Casa Lorena was born—a tribute to history, nature, and the joy of slow living.
