Yoga/Seminar room

The 160 sq mt shaded Shala has proved to be the ideal spot for outdoor practices and we also have a 50 sq mt Yurt, (ideal for sound baths), a solar heated Watsu pool and a wood-fired Sauna close to the water - and of course we provide yoga mats and cushions etc. - and the garden itself is full of hidden nooks and crannies for those wanting solitude.

Eco practices

We are off the grid and run entirely on solar energy, providing our guests with solar heated hot water, use environmentally friendly cleaning products, produce a great variety of fruit and vegetables in our biological gardens which we prepare in the Quinta kitchen and of course we separate our waste. We buy and employ locally as much as possible. Call us a "Green Leader" if you like!

Description

"Retreat in Portugal" is a secluded, off-grid, lakeside 10 bedroomed oasis in southern Portugal with excellent service.

We have free accommodation available for the retreat Leader. All rooms are en-suite and all have a wonderful and calming view across the gardens to the lake.

It is ecologically sound and solar-run, (not that you'd know it), neighbour-free - not a whiff of planes, trains or automobiles - and renowned for its privacy, peace and quiet.

We cater for all tastes and have a great deal of experience in providing vegetarian, macrobiotic and vegan food as well as tasty home cooked meals for individuals or groups.

Canoes and SUPs are included free of charge in any stay, and there's also a wood-fired sauna close to the water's edge, a Yurt, a large Yoga Shala and a solar-heated Watsu pool on site with Shiatsu Massage available too. We also offer guided Nature walks where we invite you to connect with the land and its flora and fauna with our experienced and world-renowned Guides.

We've enjoyed hosting many different Retreats in the past and are rated 5 stars on Tripadvisor after more than 500 reviews.

If you're interested in a secluded venue for that special Retreat just get in touch - we'll look forward to hearing from you!

Things To Do Nearby
