Herdade do Moinho Novo — Hotel in Montijo

Had a brief stay and wished it could have been longer. Peaceful setting , small lake surrounded by cork trees and wildeness well off the beaten track. Actually ideal for family with small children as there are quite a collection of animals and a well-organised feeding time visit, everything from ostriches to guinea-pigs and two delightful donkeys always on the look-out for food. Also an excellent swimming pool.||The accommodation is a series of wooden bungalows which are very tastely decorated and well-equipped - anything missing and very attentive, cheerful staff will try and fix it. Easy to cook up an evening meal and our apartment even had a dishwasher. Relaxing views from the terrace and the bathroom - which does have one way glass ! Incredibly comfortable bed but sleep shortened by early morning sunlight.||Only downside - if you forget something or want to dine out one evening a bit of a drive but for a short stay...

Stayed here for two nights for the wedding celebration of my son and his beautiful wife. It was wonderful. We were staying in the “Vintage” cabin and we loved the quirky decor. It was bright and spacious. Everything we needed was on site. We loved how each cabin had its own unique theme and name. The views were stunning. |We visited the farm at 10:30 am on the morning of the wedding to feed the animals. Such fun. Every wedding should have an Ostrich!|The wedding celebration was fantastic and the party on the veranda and in the restaurant area afterwards was amazing. Location, Location. Location!|The day after the wedding ceremony we continued the celebrations poolside and by the boating lake. We could not have had a happier time during our stay, So much laughter and many tears of joy. Such a beautiful place to escape to in a truly friendly and welcoming country....

Nice nature experience in the middle of nowhere. Rooms are nicely located with a good view. The bungalows are just one big room, but for couples it is just alright. The bathroom is nice as it has big panoramic window with great views and it seems it is anti-see-through from the outside. We went to feed the farm animals in the morning which was fun. They come with a breakfast kit in the morning so you can enjoy a nice private breakfast on the balcony in the morning which we enjoyed. We had a lot of flies in the room as it was very humid due to rain, but staff was helpful to supply us with fly-weapons such as sprays. Very recomendable but only for maximum to nights as you will probably run out of...
