Train Spot Guesthouse
Estacao Ferroviaria de Beira/Marvao, 7330-012 Marvão, Portugal – Excellent location – show map
Amazing 1926? building and stay at a now inactive building that is part of the closed Train Station next door. It looks like the Train Station but the ground floor has a large room with a fireplace that was used as a cafeteria eating area. No trains run on the railroad tracks and the location is very quiet day or night. The old kitchen where you make your own breakfast with owner-supplied bread, eggs, etc. has a fantastic original cast-iron range stove and huge marble sink. The entire ground floor is original. The second floor has upgraded bedrooms and bathrooms. Great exterior like Train Station with original Portuguese hand painted blue/white tiles. Hotel-recommended, nearby restaurants are excellent. The man and his sister who manage the hotel are friendly and very helpful. They are great hosts.
Train Spot Guest house is located in a disused and restored 19th century train station, in the small village of Beirã, 6.8 mi from the medieval town of Marvão. It features various accommodations from private double rooms to family rooms and apartments, overlooking the mountain landscape and the disabled line.

Train Spot Guest house hosts cultural events and retreats throughout the year. A range of local activities can be arranged, such as hiking the trails of ancient smugglers, cycling on the rails, or canoeing. The main building of the station has tile panels, classified as architectural heritage. Marvão-Beirã was the last railway station before the Spanish border, located 6.2 mi away.
