Estalagem Abrigo da Montanha

This traditional Portuguese inn is ideally placed overlooking the village of Monchique, where the rolling plains stretch out in the distance to meet the sea, with tones of blue and green.

The Estalagem Abrigo da Montanha is built of granite and complemented with wood. The restaurant and sitting room, with its fireplaces, give it a cosy atmosphere with a sense of well being. The public rooms and guest rooms are all tastefully furnished in rustic style.

Outside there is a private pool with terrace decked with sun loungers and parasols. There is also a large dance floor with a bar area. In the summer join us for hot salsa nights under a starlit sky.

Rooms: 17

Area information

The picturesque little mountain village of Monchique is only 3 km away and offers everything for daily needs, such as small shops and supermarkets, several galleries and handicraft shops, post office, restaurants and small cafes.

Markets with regional products take place on 2 Sundays a month and every year in March the village organises the traditional sausage festival (Feria de Enchidos).
A 10 km drive brings us to the spa of Caldas de Monchique , known since Roman times for its healing thermal baths. The village has been carefully restored and modernised but still breathes the nostalgic charm of the 19th century, inviting the visitor for a relaxed stroll.

The vibrant ports of Portimão and Lagos, with shopping facilities and bars, various golf courses and the wild and unspoilt beaches of the Costa Vincentina, are only a 25-minute drive away.

A must-see for art lovers is the little gallery village Porco Preta (10 km), offering exhibitions of international artists and handicraft on a regular basis. There is also a bookshop and a lovely restaurant to enjoy a meal and a glass of wine.
