The local rule of São João da Pesqueira has not been read, and in Portugal the municipal council may forbid what national law allows.
Where it exists, the usual penalty range is 60 € – 300 €.
This does not mean it is forbidden: it means it has not been checked. Below is what is known, with its official document.

Portugal
- the offence is defined SOLELY by being inside with occupants between 22:00 and 07:00: the vehicle may be legally parked and the penalty is imposed all the same
- applies only if there is NO municipal regulation (the municipal rule displaces the national one)
- only if the motorhome is TYPE-APPROVED BY THE IMT: this leaves the campervan registered as a van in a grey area
