A Timeless Estate in Alentejo
Barrocal, Hotel & Monte Alentejano, has been in the same family for over 200 years. At its heart lies the monte, an ancient small farming village lovingly restored into a hotel of understated luxury. Surrounded by centuries-old holm oaks, olive groves, and vineyards, the estate embodies a deep connection to the land. Here, a sense of belonging emerges naturally, as the expansive Alentejo landscape becomes your home away from home.
