Located in the village of Brejão, this Rural Tourism offers 6 country houses, all well equipped. In a landscape of vast horizons with the Monchique mountain on the east and the sea to the west, the decoration follows a rustic style in harmony with the materials used in the region.

T he decoration is rustic in keeping with the materials used in the region. The houses, more than 150 years old are unique restorations, carved in earth , wood and stone, which reflect a perfect integration with their environment and are full of details. Pebbles on the wall from which towels are hung recall the beach. Inside the houses there are some pieces made by the owner himself. Sculptured with art and taste they adapt to their space like an organic body adapts to the land on which it reads. Giving the impression of a nest that snuggles its occupants.

It’s a typical “monte” with solid walls made in “taipa” (lath and mud), in a space that calls for quietness and the rediscovery of the simple living and genuine flavours of the Alentejo traditional products that can be tasted in the privacy of each Cottage, with the breakfast at La carte, personalized every day according to each one's wishes. In the summer, the shadows of the garden invite you to sit at a table in the open air, whilst in the winter the fireplace spreads a pleasant warmness. Protected from the southeast winds by a small eucalyptus hood, the property has spaces with wide gardens and a large natural lake where swimming and fishing is possible.

With profound ecological concerns, more than 70% of the energy used is solar, Cerro da Fontainha is an example of pioneering on the Alentejo Coast.

Only 2 km away from Carvalhal beach and 6 km from the beaches of Zambujeira do Mar and the picturesque village of Odeceixe, it’s also possible to choose from different circular circuits which include parts of the Fishermen’s Trail of the Rota Vicentina, ride a bike, sports fishing, surf or bodyboard classes, canoeing, pottery workshops or even mind and body therapies. You can also count on the Sunset Bar, open for the guests from 7 to 10 p.m.
