Who we are?
We are Henry and Rinkje, a couple since 1989, raised 3 boys and we were working in consultancy of education and destination-marketing/management in Holland. We always have been travelling al lot with the family (Asia, USA, Canada, Nigaragua) and in Europe. Since 15 years we are quit addicted to Portugal, especially SW Portugal. So our dream: lets make a nice place for us and other people in this open, generous and friendly area.
In 2019 we bought the farm with a 20 ha in Delfeira, near Sao Teotonio. This is a village in the SW of Portugal, SW Alentejo, 7 km from the ocean.
We live here since 2021 (most of the time) and a little bit in Holland, to be some time with our 3 sons and old mother. And of course, the boys are coming to our place as well... helping but of course, do there own thing: surfing!
Our plans for the property:
Our property has a little house (already renovated so we are living over there) , a big vegetable garden and a big farm (project for renovation starts this summer). In this farm we want to make two sustainable lovely accommodations.
In the oak-forest (about 2ha) we will make a campervan-place with a minimum of facility’s (just like camping in the wild), but safe and legal. We ourselves are already a long time travelling in Portugal so we know what place gives a good feeling. It will give place for 8 campervans and (size max 7 meter).
Our idea what we want to give tot guests of the accommodations is: Enjoy Portugal, the simple life.
What do we have to do for it:
Ongoing proces: Make and conserve the vegetable garden, the garden around the little house, keep the property safe and healthy and give place tot the cows of the neighbors.
Projects for this year:
Making the place for campervans in the forest by making a road, spots and facility’s like water, toilet and a picknick spot.
For the renovation of the farm we will have a licensed builder (specialist in Taipa) but al the cleaning of the area, breaking down the roofs we have to do by ourself. Also the inside of the houses and the garden around will be our own job.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

Ajuda
Our farm has a oaktree-forest, to maintain and to building it for an camperplace it would be nice to have some forest-skills, like cutting trees etc. We have the professional material like a good chainsaw, brush cutter and a minitractor with digging-equipment. We have to make a barn of wood, so carpeting-skills would be great. It is al DIY, so most important is creativity and the spirit to create new things by yourself!
For the ongoing projects (vegetablegarden, forest, maintaining the area), you just have to like it!!Idiomas
