Residencial Cavaleiros de Cristo is a small
family-run hotel in Tomar, 30 minutes drive from Golegã. All rooms have
en-suite bathrooms; the staff are very helpful - this will be the 17th year we
have stayed at these hotels. Located in the centre of this historic town, they
have proved popular with visitors over the years due to the proximity of good restaurants,
shops, banks etc. Tomar is also a good base for those who wish to go
sightseeing.
