Quinta dos Ribeiros é oásis no Alto Alentejo para amantes de história e natureza

Dating back to the end of the 19th century, Quinta dos Ribeiros, a new member of the AIP, is linked to the history of Alpalhão and is open to welcome lovers of rural tourism in Alto Alentejo, an activity it develops in a sustainable way.

The host and manager of Quinta dos Ribeiros, owned by Agro - Turismo QDR, Unipessoal, Lda., is Pedro Bello Moraes, with more than 15 years in the tourism sector.

The mother house, formerly the home of the Andrade Sequeira family, has undergone several maintenance and restoration interventions. The most recent ones were made in 2002 and 2015 to be able to welcome guests with all the comfort in a traditional Alentejo residence, perfect for hosting 14 people and ideal for happy meetings with family or friends.

It offers four double bedrooms (green, yellow, brown and blue), with a private bathroom (shower), on the first floor. On the ground floor, it offers more accommodation: a double bedroom with washbasin and toilet; an adjacent room with two single sofa beds; an extra bedroom with two single beds; a common hall; a kitchen; a bathroom and a large dining room.

In addition to the main house, the farm has five family suites, a swimming pool and mini-golf.

Respect for the environment is a practice followed at Quinta dos Ribeiros, lit by energy-saving lamps and heated with firewood that comes from cleaning the existing trees on the property. These wastes are sorted and recycled. It rejects the use of genetically modified seeds and pesticides in favor of natural fertilizers. Following this approach, the crops are 100% organic, just like the food for the farm animals.
