Ever had one of those fairylike dreams, where you suddenly land yourself in a magical scene? One inhabited by vineyards, cork, oak and olive trees, and the sweet fragrance eucalyptus leaves… amongst which an enchanting, massive country villa resides, in Portugal’s Alentejan paradise… If you haven’t experienced this one yet, it’s never too late! Alentejo Wine Estate is here to offer you the single best, exclusive, away-from-it-all family holiday like never before! It is set on a massive private family estate, which not only produces its own wine but also has its own lake! With several hectares of land, the property holds enough indoor and outdoor spaces to please everyone, bringing you the perfect balance between having personal time and being sociable. Alentejo Wine Estate is the perfect place for large groups, with enough bedrooms to happily greet 16 of you. There are 8 large bedrooms located on the quieter side of the house, of which the master bedroom and one of the twin bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms. There are then 3 more bathrooms that are shared with the remaining 6 bedrooms, of which 4 are twin and 2 are double. Housekeeping is provided daily. There is a big game-room next to the lounge, equipped with board games, table soccer as well as a plush sofa and TV for the quieter times. Whilst the children have their fun, the adults can gather in the cosy living room with its 2 relaxing lounges, or in the kitchen preparing meals around a yummy glass of wine. A haven of tranquility, this estate is the ideal location for meandering, towards the local lake for example, which the children may prefer to do on the back of one of the donkeys if they want! That’s right: this is home to 8 sweet donkeys of a rare breed that is almost extinct, who are being kept alive by the owners, are absolute softies and will adore your company! Between the view over green hills that you see from your bedroom window, the lush lawn outside, the outdoor eating spaces, the donkeys on the property for the children to ride, or the long swimming pool that sparkles with the sunshine, this is a true fusion of the ultimate place for family and friends to gather, amidst the very best that Portuguese nature has to offer. The Garden very much reflects the house, tastefully decorated in understated comfort. An elegantly shaped and secluded swimming pool offers guests a perfect opportunity to relax in quiet surroundings yet minutes away from the excitement of the city of Lisbon. The calçada patio provides a perfect spot to lounge under the sun and the pool house provides bathrooms and refreshments close to the pool. Additional Notes: 30€ per person and per night is added on the room rate from the 10th person onwards
