A walled area, with woods of oaks and chestnut trees, orchard, vegetable garden, tanks and mills
The current garden is arranged in boxwood beds with a geometric arrangement, being delimited from the historic building of the inn by a Japanese hedge, with around fifty feet of different varieties. From the garden, a staircase gives access to a circular tank from the Baroque period, surrounded by granite seats, under the canopy of leafy trees. From each end of the garden, there is a wooded path leading to the interior of the park, where an oak forest with secular trees evokes the atmosphere of ancestral forests. In a part of Monte da Penha marked by contrasts of human occupation, the Pousada de Santa Marinha park remains a unique space, which deserves to be known and safeguarded.
