Property information

Built in the early 16th century, Quinta do Bom Despacho has been in the same family for over 400 years.

Set in 8.000m2 of grounds, the house currently welcomes up to 20 people throughout 10 bedrooms spread over 3 floors. Quinta do Bom Despacho is managed by people but inspired by nature.
