Be prepared to eat on site, but the restaurant menu does not offer a lot of choices. bar is located inside the restaurant so it’s a bit awkward. The grounds could be beautiful but look neglected which is a shame. Water in the indoor pool was freezing!!

Short break
We enjoyed taking my dad to the mountains for his 90th birthday. He'd flown over them so many times to the algarve he wanted to see them up close. The hotel and the scenery didn't disappoint.
