Herdade Da Corte

Set on three quiet hills just outside Tavira in the Algarve, this rural country house feels tucked into nature with the sea on the horizon. You're close to Ria Formosa Natural Park and an easy drive to Barril and Ilha de Tavira beaches. A family-friendly, off-the-beaten-path base for exploring the coast and countryside.

Rustic décor and simple comforts define the rooms and suites — think sloped wooden ceilings, air conditioning and private furnished patios. Accommodation is spread across two country houses and small suites set a short walk from the main house. Common spaces include a jazz & blues lounge, honesty bar and a library, all set in a wide swath of countryside.

Soak up the sun at the outdoor pool and terrace, unwind with massages and spa treatments, or hit the outdoor tennis court and hiking trails. Bikes are available to rent and kids get a playground to burn energy. Continental breakfast is served daily, and you can expect country air with sea-breeze mornings.

Free self-parking onsite and a shuttle to Faro Airport available on request. Free Wi‑Fi in public areas, plus laundry/dry-cleaning, luggage storage, a tour desk and car-hire assistance for practical travel needs.

An on-site restaurant serves meals and the lounge bar offers tapas, wine and a live jazz/blues vibe. There's an honesty bar and a cafe for lighter bites, and several village restaurants are just a short drive away.
