A Gruta dos Moinhos Velhos (juntamente com a Gruta da Pena e a Gruta da Contenda), faz parte de uma grande rede de galerias com mais de 11 Km de extensão, constituindo dos mais importantes sistemas subterrâneos do Maciço Calcário Estremenho. Caracteriza-se pela existência de dois coletores paragenéticos fósseis, de diâmetro aproximadamente decamétrico, com afluentes desenhando uma rede dendrítica e um conjunto de galerias semi-ativas de traçado dendrítico a norte e angulado a sul. A zona fóssil tem um desnível de 100 metros e a espessura da zona intermédia varia entre 80 metros a montante e 60 metros a jusante, circulando a água por galerias singenéticas, do quadrante norte para o quadrante sul, em direção à exsurgência da Gruta da Pena.

Podem definir-se quatro fases na evolução do sistema. A primeira é representada por galerias freáticas superficiais, de pequeno diâmetro, a segunda pelo coletor paragenético da Galeria Gémea, a terceira pela Galeria Grande e seus afluentes e a última pelas galerias ativas e semi-ativas dos andares inferiores.

"Family of 5 stayed for 5 nights in August. Apartment was in a great location and was very clean. The area was known to us but has become very busy since we were last there. The children loved the evenings in the sqare and the many beach days even though we were on yellow or red flag. Restaurants were incredibly busy."

"Hotel Magic was a great place to stay in Nazare. It was close to the beach and close to some great restaurants. One was right across the street. The parking was pretty convenient as we took a couple day trips. The breakfast each morning was great. Most of all the hotel staff were so helpful. We mentioned to the front desk we were leaving early the day we were departing and he packed us sandwiches, snacks and drinks and left them in our room knowing we would be leaving before breakfast. It was so nice. I highly recommend."

Three days in Tomar

"Traveled to Tomar and spent three nights in the wonderful Hotel Dos Templários. The staff was great, our 2 rooms (travel with family) were great with lovely balconies and views into the town of Tomar. We did a couple of day trips from here to nearby caves and Castelo Almourol and of course visited Tomar. Pool was great on the warm days. Hotel staff even brought my son some birthday cake as they knew by our ID used for checkin that his birthday happened while we there. A nice touch!"

"The property and room was exceptional. Upon arrival, Julicia at the front desk was a breath of fresh air and quite accommodating. She is the reason people come back to properties. The room was clean and nicely appointed. Even though I missed breakfast in the morning, they were accommodating to provide me coffee and pastries my sister and I look forward to returning next year."
