An Alentejo monte turned into a hotel

São Lourenço do Barrocal is an agricultural estate about two centuries old at the foot of Monsaraz, surrounded by olive groves, turned into a hotel. The rooms are in the estate's old houses, around whitewashed courtyards, and some look towards the walled town on top of the hill.

Rooms, cottages and restaurant

There are rooms of several kinds (winery, courtyard, farm and suites) and cottages of one to three bedrooms, the choice for families or groups. It has a spa, a pool with a bar and two places to eat: the house restaurant, with Alentejo cooking made with produce from the estate and from small neighbouring producers, and the Hortelão. Rates and availability are on its website.

Getting there and what is nearby

It is in the municipality of Reguengos de Monsaraz, a few minutes by car from the town and the river beach. From Badajoz it is an hour and a half. The Cumeada Dark Sky observatory is about half an hour away: the estate, far from lights, is also a good place to look at the sky.
