    Description

    Welcome to our quinta, we are located 2 km from the town Aljezur (South-West Algarve). We are a combined family of 4, with Portugese-Dutch-Marrocan roots, two adults and two girls of 5 and 8. Since 3 years we are rebuilding a small farm with natural farming and animals. Good vibes and good food are our two main keywords.
