Get way from it all in the south west of Portugal.
There are few better places to get away from it all than the south west coast of Portugal, blessed as it is by unique isolated landscapes and wonderful beaches. It is precisely in this combined setting of countryside and sea that the 365-hectare Herdade do Touril can be found. Just getting there inspires tranquillity, as there is nothing else around to distract the visitor from the area’s charms.
The sea breeze, warm earthy colours and smell of lavender and rosemary thus become all the more palpable. The Herdade do Touril, with its whitewashed walls tinged with blue, tiled roofs and ceramic floors retains all this rustic ambience of the Alentejo, without forsaking any comforts. Though a number of the furniture and fittings are reproduction, the feel is still one of authenticity, as the Touril also remains a working estate where around 150 cattle are bred.
In fact, some of the quirkier touches include the numerous model animals located throughout - sheep, chickens, pigs made from a variety of materials, including wood and tin. Without doubt, these are sure to delight the little ones.
Care has also been taken to maintain the intimacy of guests. Rooms, which are simple but tastefully decorated with comfortable beds lead out onto private terraces where one can contemplate the magic of the Alentejo. For those who like to combine peace with activity, leisure pursuits nearby include rambling, horse riding, fishing and diving.
Zambujeira do Mar, an interesting little seaside town, is also within easy reach.
