Private Wellness Retreats
As well as retreat groups, Quinta do Areal welcomes individuals and groups of friends or family who want to spend time in nature and to simply relax. People have been coming to the Serra da Lousã for many years to escape city life, to breathe the clean air and to enjoy outdoor pursuits in the mountains. We welcome visitors to our restored quinta to enjoy the simplicity of farm life from the comfort of our luxurious facilities and to create their own wellness retreat programme.
Situated in an area of Portugal well-known for the outdoor activities (mountain biking, hiking, trail running, cycling, kayaking, river swimming), we offer the perfect place to relax and recharge for just for a couple of nights or to stay on for a few days.
