We offer holidays without strict rules and timetables. There is always time for relaxing; breakfast is at your convenience and within reason you can ride when you want. The horses have a day off in the middle of the week. You either can relax and soak up the sun orenjoy the deserted surfing beaches of Caripateira just 6 kilometres to the west and the sheltered coves and quaint villages of the Algarve coast 12 kilometres south, riding through a maze of forest trails and open meadows. We often ride all day without meeting another person, but the wildlife more than compensates for our isolation and Lagos, a popular cosmopolitan tourist town is only 20 minutes away.
Make a new friend on holiday, with unlimited access you can really get to know your horse. Help with the feeding, grooming and mucking out and of course enjoy riding or driving out on one of our well-sprung carriages. You can start off on our own farm trails, before venturing out into the vast National Park that surrounds us.

You will be accommodated in our historic stone built farmhouse. There is a large common room with a huge log fire for the cooler evenings where local horsemen and carriage drivers are often to be found spinning tall stories and boasting of their skill in the saddle! You will sleep in either in the main bunk house, sleeping up to four or one of the two family rooms with en-suite shower rooms , a double and single bed and cot space. You will eat with the family in the hall of the old stone barn. Breakfasts at the Lodge tend to be quite casual and is a help yourself buffet, especially if the cook is going out riding that day.

Lunch, our mid day meal, is usually either a picnic on route or if we are near the stables or a suitable fire pit, something grilled over a wood fire and washed down with our excellent local wine. Dinner is not included, except for our all inclusive holiday programs, but most nights our farm kitchen is serving one or two local specialties and being Portugal we tend to eat a lot of fish and we produce our own lamb, pork and poultry
