Wonderful Vacation

Harold & Joan; Bernice & Tom Charlottetown, Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada
Review Submitted: May 12, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
We spent a wonderful 5 weeks at Herdade da Maroteira - exploring the vineyards, the cork and olive trees, "walking" the dogs, observing the birds, sheep, goats and chickens, and relishing the scenery.
The cottage is clean, well-maintained and very comfortable with everything provided - just like home! The location is perfect to explore the Alentejo region; along with visits to Lisbon, the Algarve and the Douro Valley.
Our hosts were very friendly, warm, sincere and extremely helpful. We felt very welcome and comfortable at Herdade da Maroteira with its peaceful and breathtaking scenery.
Our only regret was we had to return home after 5 weeks of peace, tranquility and warm bliss.
Thank you to Philip, Margarida, Mafalda, Bea and all for making our holiday wonderful and a dream come true!

Farmhouse in the cork forest

Alison and Steve Hampshire, england
Review Submitted: July 6, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
The extremely comfortable farmhouse and its location ticked all of our boxes for the perfect holiday: a peaceful away from it all location; stunning landscapes; great wildlife; history and archaeology; friendly and informative hosts; excellent wine. All of this in a country where, as one person put it, the only access law seems to be 'shut the gate behind you!' Miles and miles of tracks provide endless opportunities for walking and some great off road cycling, which we managed to combine with birding, but next time we'll take a compass with us. It's very easy to get lost!

Birding highlights within 50 miles of the location included: Booted, Short-toed and Bonelli's eagles, Azure-winged magpie, Black-winged Kite, Black-bellied Sandgrouse and Griffon Vulture.

We'd definitely recommend this property to people wanting to enjoy the wildife associated with the traditionally managed cork forest of the Alentejo region.

beautiful place

Friederike and Christian Berlin, Germany
Review Submitted: June 9, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We spent 4 wonderful days on Philip´s and Magarita´s cottage - what a pitty we could stay longer!! It´s a beautiful, absolutely peaceful place, close to interesting cities like Evora and Estremoz in the middle of oak wood trees. If you like quietness of nature with cultur nearby and if you get along with dogs (they´re very lovely!), it´s definitvely one of the most beautiful places to be in Portugal. We highly recommend it!

holiday in a breathtaking scenery

Sonja & Holger Germany
Review Submitted: June 26, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
Really a perfect place for a quiet family holiday: marvelous surrounding, excellent wine, great starting point for trips to Evora, Monsaraz or other places in the wonderful Alentejo. We enjoyed a wonderful week in a breathtaking landscape. The hosts were very friendly and did everything to make us feel at home. The accomodation is comfortable and clean, especially the two spacious bathrooms, there is nothing we would have missed.
