Inspired by nature and run by people, Quinta do Bom Despacho has remained in the same family since it was built in the 17th century.
Between 2014 and 2015, around 8.000m2 were transformed to offer eco-friendly accommodation throughout 10 rooms with capacity for 20 people.
A place to stay in the present where you can also feel the past and explore the future.
Our rooms range from 12m2 (129 ft²) to 43m2 (463 ft²) in area, welcome 1-4 people and have an en-suite, a private or a shared bathroom. Bed sizes vary (also from one country to another) so we’ve put together this comparison .
Decoration includes either century-old pieces or modern upcycled wooden pallets brought back to life by a local association for rehabilitation and social inclusion.
You can book one room, one floor or, you guessed it, the entire house! Check out our rooms!

Discover the programRunning Quinta do Bom Despacho has been a surprising journey of discovery. Much of what we currently do is the result of knowledge shared by countless guests, visitors, friends and family. We want to keep the knowledge-sharing chain going!
This is why we offer the possibility for you to visit Quinta do Bom Despacho. Come meet the property, the business, the people behind it all and let’s have a brainstorm to stimulate everyone’s personal growth.
We open our doors to public schools, ONGs and other non-profit educational or social organisations. From the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development to agroecology or tourism, we can address an array of topics. At the end, there is always time for a Q&A session. Let us know what you’d like to talk about!
Book your visitWe also carry out guided tours of the estate. These are usually booked through an agency and may include e.g. a local wine tasting, a lunch or dinner with local products, or a talk with local experts in specific domain(s). Prices vary depending on group size, duration and activities. Talk to us!
