December, Saturday

5:00 pm – Welcome tea and tasting of homemade sweets at Casa-Mãe
Welcome to TheVagar! Come in, stop by our apothecary and take a look at the regional products. In the background, an inviting fireplace waits anxiously to comfort you from the cold outside. But here, there are also books that heal, in our Pharmacy of the Soul. Shall we sit down and have a drink?

7:00 pm – Fire ritual, with wine tasting and regional sausages
After settling into your beautiful suite, it's time to share stories, share knowledge and multiply smiles. And all of this becomes much tastier if accompanied by the best wines and sausages from Beira Interior. Dare to savor this moment, around our campfire.

8:30 pm – Cinema & popcorns session
Kinetherapy is a therapeutic tool, of a psychological nature, with multiple benefits. As those who come to TheVagar come to heal from the chaotic outside world, we couldn't help but take the opportunity to provide you with this experience. Let yourself be carried away by the narrative and tell us: what is the moral of the story?

December, Sunday

7:40 am – Sunrise – Pause for Contemplation
The sun is one of the most romantic elements on planet Earth, but how many times have you actually seen it rise or set? Here. Now. Focusing on the present moment. We hope there were many, but we believe that this one is unique and special.
We want to know if you agree!

Breakfast
Without an appointment, enjoy a delicious breakfast, lovingly prepared by our team. With the best regional products and the most typical elements of this season, the hardest part will be containing the desire to try them all. But we know Belmonte's best kept secrets. Do you want to listen?

10:30 am – Yoga
Yoga is a practice that involves well-being at all levels: mental, physical, emotional and spiritual. It consists of the union of body and mind, with what is around us. Can you imagine the fusion that will occur when it joins Serra da Esperança? More than a class, you will enjoy an explosion of peace!

2:00 pm – Sensory Course – Bare Feet
It's time to have fun, testing your senses. On this route, which we created for you, you will challenge yourself with each level you overcome, until you reach a new world. Hot, cold, rough, prickly... what will it be like? At the end of the line, take a look at your prey, dare to wet your feet and feel the cold water running over your toes.

4:00 pm – Jeep tour to Serra da Esperança

And the joy continues, now with a walk through the magnificent Serra da Esperança! We will tell you the stories, show you the scenery, introduce you to the most typical species of the region and many more mysteries, which only those who are a son of this land could unravel. Do you believe it?

6:00 pm – Return to the Motherhouse
After the excitement of the jeep ride, allow yourself to relax in the armchairs of the Mother House, whilst enjoying the aromas of the tea that we will serve afterwards. The best wedding will be with traditional cookies and, also, a tasty homemade cake, made right here, very TheVagar.

9pm – Slow Dinner
The slow philosophy is in everything. Do you assume what it is like to eat TheVagar? On this last night of the year, we will say goodbye to 2023, all its lessons and all its challenges, with (c)soul, presence, meaning and gratitude. You can serve yourself, as you wish, on a delicate table with:

 Tasting of flavored olive oils (own production);
 Vegetable cream;
 Boar fondue in dehydrated boletus broth, garnished with rustic potatoes;
 Apple crumble with homemade ice cream;
 Wines from Beira Interior.

00:00 – Welcome to the New Year
And it is, tiptoe, very TheVagar, that the new year is arriving here. Let's change the scene. It's time to put on your overcoat and put on a hat. Let's come together, in the circle of fire, in harmony, and welcome 2024! Well accompanied by a pleasant sparkling wine from Beira Interior, 12 raisins and an explosive surprise!

January , Monday

Breakfast
The first day of the new year should be peaceful, unpretentious, organic. We invite you to wake up, without rushing, and have a late, well-stocked breakfast. The products are delicious, as always, but there are new features on this menu. What will we have prepared for you this time?

11:30 am – Sowing Hope
We are privileged by nature and we show our gratitude by contributing to the earth. We will plant native species from Serra da Esperança, which we enjoy having here so much. May this moment be significant for the growth and flourishing you need and deserve in your life.

12:30 pm – Wishing tree
It's time to set intentions for the new year. Share your desires, if it makes sense to you, or simply keep them to yourself. The intention is established. And it will be!
