Description
Description
Villa Macaw is a place where serenity reigns, somewhere where you can inhale pure oxygen, and relax! Taking its name from the acorns that grow on the estate, this quintessentially Portuguese Quinta (country house) is surrounded by 10 hectares of unspoilt countryside planted with cork trees and holm oaks. The property is particularly suited for group getaways looking for a peaceful rural location yet with plenty to do on offer; from horse riding to yoga, cooking classes to regional wine tasting.
The luxurious but cosy accommodation spreads over 2 levels with 5 double/twin bedroom suites all with private bathrooms in the main house plus a more modest garden suite; with the master bedroom on the top floor enjoying landscape views of the surrounding countryside.
A 100 sq square meters living room has a wide screen TV and card table, and the 50 sq metres dining room can sit up to 16 guests around the table or cater for special events of up to 30 people. Both the living and dining rooms open onto covered terraces for outdoor dining and to the pool area, whilst the kitchen offers a fantastic space for a group Alentejo gastronomy lesson, should you be interested.
Available for year-round rentals, resident staff supervise the property, serve breakfast and can prepare simple meals. Alternatively, you can book a regional chef to try some of the local gastronomy, as well as choose wines from Quinta’s private cellar!
The crisp and clear winter days are perfect for discovering the Alentejo province and all it has to offer, with roaring fires beckoning you back once the sun goes down; whereas, in the summer heat, you’ll be taking refuge by the swimming pool during the day and enjoying outdoor meals in the evening. The Alto Alentejo where Villa Macaw is located, boasts two UNESCO Heritage Sites (Elvas and Évora), several castles and local markets, and many vineyards within close proximity where an educational wine tasting visit is a must; as well as being close to the Spanish border.
