✍️ Description from the real estate agent

Rural Wine Tourism Opportunity – Discover a delightful small hotel nestled on a 44-hectare farm in the parish of Vila de Frades, just a stone's throw from the Roman Ruins of S. Cucufate.

This property comprises three distinct buildings, including a charming hotel with a footprint of 250 m² and a total floor area of 375 m². The hotel features six rooms, each of which can be connected to another, all equipped with air conditioning, a 40-inch television, a minibar, a kettle, and a choice of a king-size bed or two single beds, along with a bathroom featuring a hydromassage shower. The upper floor houses the breakfast room, service area, reading nook, and storage space. The hotel is fully equipped with planned infrastructure, including water supply, heating, and electrical systems, allowing for future expansion to 12 rooms.

Additionally, there is a mixed-use winery, registered with the CVRA – Alentejo Regional Wine Commission, covering 250 m² and divided into three sections: 1) A garage for a tractor, 2000-litre sprayer, and various implements; 2) A traditional winery that doubles as a dining area for staff or events, featuring seven amphorae, male and female restrooms, and a small, fully-equipped kitchen; 3) A technological winery containing a 5000-litre fermentation tank, chiller, multiple wine tanks, and a storage area for bottles.

The property also includes a spacious single-storey house of 375 m², offering four bedrooms—two suites and two additional bedrooms sharing a bathroom.

The estate boasts a 21-hectare vineyard with a variety of grape types planted, including Antão Vaz, Arinto, Alfrocheiro, Aragonez, Trincadeira, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Tinta Grossa, and Alicante Bouschet. The vineyards, orange groves, and Cobrançosa olive grove benefit from a drip irrigation system.

Water self-sufficiency is ensured through two year-round natural springs, two artesian wells, and six interconnected wells.

Situated near the Alqueva Dam, the largest artificial lake in Europe with a perimeter greater than the entire Portuguese coast, and the Pedrogão Dams, this property is in a region rich in tourist potential, often frequented for fishing, rowing, and canoeing events—activities that are increasingly promoted even for non-competitive enjoyment. A wonderful river beach has recently opened in Amieira, adding to the area's appeal.
