\"Close your eyes and feel another Alentejo\"<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you enter Quinta dos Ribeiros, close your eyes.
Take a deep breath.
Smell the sweet scent of the orchard, listen to the wind blowing through the vines in the distance and let yourself be tempted by long walks on the sun-gilded plains, or simply think about resting under the shade of an old oak tree.
Listen to the sparrows chirping in the treetops and relax. You've arrived in the Alentejo, a land of tranquillity and hospitality.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was with this motto that we arrived at Quinta dos Ribeiros in the village of Alpalh\u00e3o, in the municipality of Nisa, and we truly felt at home. We were welcomed by our host Pedro Bello Moraes, who gave us a guided tour on one of the few days when he wasn't dedicated to welcoming guests to this hotel. This place was once a farmhouse with a family home that has long since been transformed into a truly idyllic and ideal place to spend a few seasons. Pedro, who belongs to the family, has roots in Alentejo and has a degree in Tourism and Hospitality, left Lisbon one day to dedicate himself body and soul to this hotel project in the Alentejo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quinta dos Ribeiros is an unpretentious, family-run guest house where anyone arriving feels like they've arrived at their own country home. During their stay, guests may come across various animals such as chickens, ducks, goats, donkeys and ponies that make their stay a real treat, especially for children. Olive production and sheep farming are other complementary businesses on the farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We walked around the farm and Pedro told us that there is a strong concern and respect for the environment, from the choice of energy-saving light bulbs, the farm is heated with wood that comes from clearing trees, they recycle and sort their waste rigorously, they only use natural fertilisers and the crops are 100% organic, as is the feed for the farm animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This accommodation has 5 family suites, with the possibility of breakfast and access to communal areas such as the lounge, kitchen and dining room. They are spacious and very comfortable, as we had the opportunity to visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a main building on the property, nicknamed the \"mother house\" for several years. It is a family home from the late 19th century that has been converted into an accommodation unit with capacity for small groups of around 15 people. It has 4 double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, a family suite, a utility room and spacious communal areas such as a lounge, dining room, kitchen and exclusive outdoor dining area with barbecue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ideal place for an unforgettable family holiday in full communion with nature, where four-legged friends are welcome. The getaway you won't want to miss in the heart of the Alto Alentejo, where you can easily visit all the region's most emblematic sites. The Quinta dos Ribeiros team is waiting for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
