Herdade dos Alfanges lies in a valley surrounded by three villages: Alvito, Viana do Alentejo and Vila Nova da Baronia. All the villages are less than 5km away and you can walk to Vila Nova through the countryside (2km). The villages are historic; Viana has a castle with four naves dating back from the 14th century and Alvito has a castle dating back from the 11th century. The villages are wonderfully authentic, white washed houses with blue or yellow sashes, complete with a generation of people, now retired, that could come straight out of a Fellini Movie. Don´t forget Evora, a beautiful walled city and a UNESCO heritage site dating back to the Romans. A university town with lots of shops, restaurants and sites to see. This is a beautiful part of Europe - especially great in Spring. The countryside is a riot of wild flowers and the weather is great!

Guest Book Entry - Waqas Family Pakistan - 07/07
We can write pages about the great time we had, the wonderful ambiance, the attention to detail in the villa, etc, etc, however I will simply summarise by saying that the last few days were the most AMAZING VACATION EXPERIENCE. The first day we came here, we decided we'll come back again + that we are leaving, this resolve is strengthened further. Heleen: thank you and see you again soon!
Guest Book Entry - The Shapisso Family - New York,
Guest Book Entry - The Shapisso Family - New York, USA - May 2007 We loved our stay at the Herdade. 4 days of blissful serenity, birds chirping, fresh eggs and lovely swims in the pool. I can't imagine a cozier hammock and will miss the fresh air and quiet shelters from the midday sun. The ping pong table and trampoline were wonderful bonuses for our son. Heleen you yourself were such a pleasure. Your lovely welcome, bounty of foods you left for us, directions to places you love in the area, abundance of soft towels and every supply made our stay easy in addition to fun, all we wanted for our vacation. Thank you for everything. Guest Book Entry - Pippa, Andrew and Samu Trilbeam We have thoroughly enjoyed our week in the beautiful Alfanges which we have discovered to be a complete rural retreat. We've loved exploring Alentejo with its beautiful scenery and sleepy little towns and villages. Alfanges has been the perfect base for us to make short trips and still have plenty of
