The grounds are very secluded in their own bend of this delightful valley, with stunning views over the river Paiva and the Serra de Montemuro mountains opposite. This marvellous countryside is ideal for those who enjoy walking, cycling, swimming, bird-watching, trout fishing, kayaking around the area or practising various outdoor pursuits.
It is also the perfect spot for those who are looking for peace and tranquillity, "far from the madding crowd", in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The Quinta nestles in a green and lush valley: the sides of the mountain are clad in eucalyptus and pine, and the tops are open moorland which in the spring time is covered in heather of the most beautiful colours. In the valley floor grow warm Mediterranean crops which are available from the garden in season.
Legend relates that the artist, Picasso, visited this estate on a number of occasions as the guest of the original owner of the property, the German artist Heinz Kraken.
