Herdade da Barrosinha
Alcácer do Sal, Alentejo, Portugal
A Rural-Heritage Retreat in the Alentejo Countryside
Nestled in the heart of the Alentejo region, just 2 km from the historic town of Alcácer do Sal and a short drive from the stunning beaches of Comporta, Herdade da Barrosinha offers a unique blend of rural charm, contemporary comfort, and tradition. Set on a vast estate that spans over 1,000 hectares and forms part of an agricultural project dating back to 1947 (originally dedicated to rice, cork, wine, livestock, and pine production) the hotel invites guests to connect with nature and heritage.
Today, the property is a serene retreat where rooms and villas balance simplicity and elegance, modern amenities and rustic character. Guests can unwind by the outdoor pool, work out in the gym, or savour local flavours in the tavern, which celebrates regional cuisine with grilled dishes and communal meals. The onsite Barrosinha Winery crafts distinctive wines reflecting the terroir of the Setúbal Peninsula and Alentejo, combining traditional methods with modern techniques. Beyond the accommodation, the estate offers nature-trails, birdwatching, forest activities and river vistas, making Herdade da Barrosinha a destination to reconnect with nature, heritage and the timeless beauty of southern Portugal.
