Sao Bras de Alportel House | Wild View Retreat - A restored abandoned mountain village - sleeps 24

13 Bedroom House in Sao Bras de Alportel

Wild View Retreat has arisen from the ruins of an abandoned mountain village in the foothills of the Algarve in Portugal. Originally built by a Portuguese Army General in 1898, the ‘Manor House’ and surrounding ruins have undergone a 2 year restoration and redevelopment project, transforming the iconic setting into a bespoke wellness retreat.
The retreat is defined by its spectacular uninterrupted 360° views of the Serra do Caldeirão mountains, a Zona De Intervenção Florestal protected for its natural beauty and famous Portuguese cortiça (cork) trees. There are no cars, no roads, no buildings, no neighbours for as far as the eye can see. Nothing but wilderness and nature. Nothing to hear but the birds and the wind. You are completely cut off from society, no interruptions or distractions and the whole place to yourself. The retreat is ideal for family holidays, reunions and birthday celebrations, corporate events and meetings or your very own wellness retreat as it comes equipped with a phenomenal infinity pool, Manor House with open plan kitchen and dining area, large studio for yoga, fitness or other group events as well as a treatment room for a massage or other therapies or meetings.
Wild View Retreat is available for private rental and accommodates up to 24 guests on weekly rates from 2020. The whole setting and all buildings have been tastefully restored with modern facilities at the same time retaining the historical and traditional architecture of the local Portuguese setting.
The retreat facilities include:
• 8 double/twin ensuite bedrooms with exceptional wild views, under floor heating and air conditioning (16 people)
• 2 further triple ensuite bedrooms with the same views and facilities (6 people)
• 2 bedroom private villa for visiting working staff or family (2-3 people)

Summary: As a large family group of 15 ranging in age from 10 - 77 years this is the ideal location. The bedrooms are spacious, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped for large groups, the eating areas well arranged and outside space very comfortable. The pool is lovely (take a look in the evenings for the visiting toads) and is an ideal spot to view the local wildlife especially the birds. Jessica and all her staff are friendly, helpful and kind. If you are looking for nightlife and partying this is not the place as it outside the town, but shopping and restaurants are only a 20min drive away. We loved it here for a wonderful week just being a family together.
