21st to 27th of April, 2025
Imagine a week where the hustle and bustle of daily life melts away, replaced by the warmth of the sun, the gentle rustling of olive trees, and the laughter of your child. This is more than just a getaway; it's an opportunity to nurture the most precious bond of all—the one between you and your child.
At Herdade dos Alfanges, a breathtaking 90-hectare estate, you’ll find a haven designed to help parents and children reconnect on a deeper level. Surrounded by nature's beauty, you’ll have the space and time to truly listen, share, and rediscover each other in ways that daily life often doesn't allow. Whether it’s through the quiet moments in the serene gardens, the shared joy of yoga under the open sky, or the simple act of enjoying a wholesome meal together, this retreat is about embracing the present and creating lasting memories.
Herdade dos Alfanges, nestled in the heart of the Alentejo, often called the "new Tuscany," is a region brimming with charming villages, ancient castles, lush vineyards, and centuries-old olive trees. Located within the golden triangle of Évora, Beja, and Grândola, this 90-hectare estate is filled with mature Iberian oak and cork oak trees, alongside peaceful flocks of sheep.
It’s the perfect oasis for parents and children to escape the hustle of everyday life, find tranquility, and rediscover the deep bond that unites them.
Enjoy a stay in one of our luxurious guesthouses, where you and your child will be accommodated in a spacious single or double room, each with a private bathroom. These guesthouses offer inviting lounges with cozy fireplaces, fully equipped kitchens, and access to peaceful gardens and a refreshing infinity pool.
Whether you want to unwind together in the garden, snuggle up by the fire, or splash around in the pool, you'll find the perfect spot to relax and reconnect with each other.
On arrival and departure days, there will be a special Opening and Closing Circle for everyone.
Savor delicious vegetarian meals lovingly prepared from organic, locally sourced ingredients, with much of the produce grown right on the estate. Between meals, enjoy fresh, organic fruits and healthy snacks.
You and your child will also have the chance to participate in a fun cooking class, where you can learn to create healthy, family-friendly meals together, bringing inspiration back home to your own kitchen.
