Hidden paradise in the Serra de Sicó, close to the Camino. Spend time in this large and very cosy quinta and biodynamic vineyard. Your hosts are international travellers who choose to settle in the peace of this region of Portugal. Meet our cat and two mountain dogs, and play with our very social sheep, kunekune miniature pigs, and many feather friends. We have a selection of 2 bedrooms, each with their own unique characteristics, and ideal for remote work (our internet connection is fibre optic, fast and stable). Each room has its A/C split unit, a fan and access to a private bathroom. each room comes with a work desk. Several areas can be used for work, and you can spend time in the lounge, the verandahs, work at the pool when available, or stroll on our vast grounds. We grow olive and grape and practice regenerative permagriculture. We know our region well, and can suggest places and activities to suit your interests. We are also close to the Camino if you are a traveling pilgrim. Since I am a yoga teacher with 35 years of practice, plenty of mats and props are available for you! Languages spoken: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese.
