A magnificent property with the Monsaraz Castle in the background. Perhaps one of the most beautiful and authentic hills in the area, it is currently a fully functioning Rural Hotel. The farm extends over an area of six hectares, where a wonderful house of around 1000m2 stands out, renovated with local materials and in keeping with the Alentejo spirit. Art in all its forms and elegant furniture fill the 13 rooms of this property, 10 of which are suites, as well as a beautiful annex with 3 bedrooms. All rooms have air conditioning, television and internet. A large covered area complements the ambience. The saltwater pool with views of the castle is complemented by extensive and welcoming gardens and a support kitchen. A small organic vegetable garden and a beautiful rose garden, as well as 170 orange trees and dozens of thousand-year-old olive trees complete this farm, less than 2 minutes by car from Alqueva and 4 from the Castle. This property is independent in terms of water because it is situated on a huge reservoir. It is also powered by solar panels and two photovoltaic panel systems, and has three entrances. It is worth noting that Monsaraz is on the UNESCO World Heritage List and is one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal, referring to monument villages. It has a fully equipped river beach. The property is 50 km from Évora, a museum city. It is also an exceptional place for night observation, as it is an internationally certified protected area as the Dark Sky Reserve covering an area of three thousand square kilometers. As a rural hotel, a luxurious retirement home or as a private home, this property is a haven of peace and beauty in a pure natural space. Contact us for information and to book a visit!
