The Belmonte Poussada is located about 2 km southwest of the town and is a good example of the poussada concept; the preservation of the culture and heritage of regions and the restoration of historic buildings. Set on the slopes of the Esperança Mountain, this poussada, which was opened in 2000, results from the reconstruction of the old Convento de Nossa Senhora da Esperança (Our Lady of Hope). The small 13th century chapel has also been restored and the whole, including a woodland amphitheatre, preserves all the historical architecture of the original convent.
