A luxury 4 bedroomed isolated villa rental, located in the forest and fields of the Alentejo countryside, one hour east of Lisbon. A property that has been in the family for more than 100 years, the current owners have aligned their grandfathers vision and carried out renovations under the guidance of Manuel Aires Mateus. This luxury villa rental in Alentejo started as a family residence, built with their ancestors’ connection to the land and a love for the surrounding nature making it the ideal gathering space for friends, family, and travellers. Portuguese culture is strongly reflected in its architecture, immortalizing it through the structural elements and design, faithful to the local vernacular and honouring the memory of Portuguese history. Dramatic doors blur the boundaries between the surrounding Alentejo countryside’s expansive views and the decor of the luxury villa rental, allowing plenty of natural light through to illuminate the minimal interiors. Patio’s and rooms provide shelter while floors are paved with local clay tiles giving warmth and togetherness in the winter, as well as freshness and tranquillity in the summer. Encouraging quietness, presence and fresh perspective, enjoy sunny days on vacation in the swimming pool, ride the bikes, interact with the animals and pick exceptional produce from the vegetable garden.
