Long-standing Portuguese estate São Lourenço do Barrocal has been in the same family for 200 years. The mantle has now passed to eighth-generation owner José Antonio, who spent 14 years refurbishing the entire property, breathing new life into a landscape with an old-world soul. Additions such as a Susanne Kaufmann spa and sleek new furniture lend a modern touch, but take nothing from the heritage of the buildings or the unspoiled meadows, olive groves and sun-soaked vineyards. Don’t be fooled by the simple elegance of the design, however – José’s hospitality has roots as deep as the holm oaks that stand sentinel on the estate.

  

São Lourenço do Barrocal is a 200-year-old estate located in Portugal’s Alentejo region. The hotel and working farm has sprawling grounds, including meadows, vineyards, olive groves and shade-giving oak trees.
