Solares
de Portugal are family homes as opposed to hotels, offering a
very different kind of holiday experience with that "personal
touch". All our houses have been arranged into three distinct
groups: Casas Antigas, Quintas & Herdades and Casas Rústicas.
They have been individually inspected to ensure the highest standards
of quality and hospitality. Many Solares de Portugal have played
host to the same family for hundreds of years and often date back
to the 16th and 17th Centuries. Guests at Solares de Portugal
houses will find a range of leisure opportunities at their disposal,
such as fishing, hunting, golf, swimming, rambling, tennis, horse
riding, cycling and wine tasting. Guests at Solares de Portugal

is of a great heritage significance, the various styles reflecting
the distinct chapters in the history of Portugal.
