We booked this Quinta while we was on a fishermans trail with our little son a and wanted 3days off. It was the best decision, we would stay here much longer. This farm is near to the lighthouse, just next to the fishermans trail. You are staying just next to horse boxes. They have really nice dog and cat. We didnt use the swimming pool but it looks also really nice. They serve such a good breakfast from local food, cheese, fruit marmelade, fresh warm bread. At the reception you can buy local products including wine, beer, yougurts, cheese, marmelade or soap. It was the best accommodation we had during our stay in Portugal.

Outstanding location, at night you can hear the horses on the pastures snorting and the ocean roaring. (it is a 10-minute-walk to the beautiful coastside). In the morning the roosters crowing. It lies about halfway the Fisherman´s trail section between Almograve and Zambujeira do Mar, so you can take a walk along the coastside about 2 hours to the really nice restaurant O Sacas near Zambujera or a walk towards Almograve. The farm is specialised on "Natural Horsemanship" (as I understood it as a layman, it is the natural way to treat horses species-appropriate/fair, get to know their behaviour better and also learn something about yourself) and I got spontaneously a introduction in this method by the riding instructor Anna, who does also short guided horse tours for beginners at the seaside. The lodgings have a nice terrace with a view on the wide pastures, the beds are comfi, there`s a fireplace in the house and you can order a breakfast basket for 5 Euros. Parking is easy. I was very happy wih my choice!

The kitchen equipment is a little bit too basic for my taste (for example no sharp knives, small plates), the bathroom feels a little bit cold. Though - I would book it again. Definitely.

Beautiful, peaceful, birdsong, horses sighing, you can see stars at night…the breakfast was delicious.

I liked that it was cozy and comfortable, but the porch lights did shine in to the living room at night, making it difficult for our friend to sleep there. However he found the couch bed very comfortable. Also a map illustrating how to hike to the nearby Cabo and lighthouse would be great.

The location is awesome, very good to go hiking/cycling in the region or go to the nearby beaches. The houses are super cute and very well equipped! We were very well received and we loved it, and breakfast was also amazing:-)

The living room is tiny, but with good weather there is more than enough to enjoy outside!

The location is exceptional from the nature point of view. It is quiet countryside, lots of ground around, it offers a lot of privacy. The houses are beautifully decorated in the traditional style with lots of flowers on the outside. In 15 minutes on foot you reach the seaside and the beaches are spectacular and wild. It is a good base to explore the Atlantic side of Alentejo with its traditional villages and dramatic coast. Most restaurants are 15-20 mins drive away. Do not expect holiday resorts around because there are none. You can run on the Rota Vicentina both ways, it is very close. And of course the horses. There are actually only 5 available for riding and lots of people are interested so be sure to menton in advance that you are interested in horseback riding. They were able to accomodate us with two short rides (1 hr) which is really all we could ave hoped for given that we did not give much advance notice and that we were not experienced riders. The trails take you to the nature park on the coast and also up on the cliffs overlooking the sea, it is an once in a lifetime experience. Anna, the instructor, is very friendly and helpful.

The facilities in the house are a little old. The bathroom was not spotlessly clean and it smelled a little bit of mould. Be prepared to cater for yourself with some basics like dish detergent etc. The conditions were what you would expect on a farm stay. We really, really missed having breakfast. We arrived on Easter and it was really difficult to get something to eat on Sunday morning. Cavaleiro, the closest village 1 km away, is very small and you cannot buy anything there. We would have greatly appreciated if the property provided at least some basic breakfast.

It's a country cottage near the sea. And you can hear the waves. It's relaxing.

It was not a dislike it's more of a suggestion. The entrance to the pool should have a door to protect the entrance of small children.

Remoteness, proximity to wild coastline

Remoteness also means no restaurants nearby. The one place in town is just ok. Unable to ride horses during our stay even for 1 hour due to bookings months in advance. :(

We ordered the breakfast basket and it was delivered to our cottage in the morning with fresh baked bread hot out of the oven! I recommend ordering it!

very nice location. the apartment is clean, modern and well decorated

if I would have to say something is about the outdoor furniture that would need to be maintained a bit more.

Beautiful location and our apartment had all that we needed for our short stay. We enjoyed sinking into the luxurious bed at the end of each day. Sara was also very reachable if we had any questions/issues.
