An Abandoned Village Reimagined
We love the inspired dedication to authentic cultural heritage here and the thoughtful and stylish handmade details. A treat for the senses, there's much to admire and discover with a genuine sweetness and return to simplicity and chic, understated style.
Located in a quiet forested region of the famed village of Fatima in central Portugal, this formerly abandonded village has been reimagined as a unique lifestyle hotel with a collection of charming guest suites where residents can commune with nature in stylish comfort.
Inspired by the traditional architecture of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the formerly derelict structures were originally built with locally harvested stones, limestone and terra rossa mortar, based on ancient construction techniques dating back to Roman times.
Restored with an astonishingly meticulous level of authentic and personal detail, each has been modernized with creativity and style and an appreciation for the natural environment and culture. With a mix of 15 rooms and suites, there are a selection of accommodations for two to four guests, each with fully-equipped kitchens or kitchenettes, and furnished and decorated with unique and eclectic handpicked style.
The main lodge serves as a convivial gathering place and houses a bright and cheerful living room with fireplace, a dining area and bar and shop with local grocery products, gifts and crafts.
The rambling forested gardens are a peaceful oasis of fruit trees, oaks, olive trees and native species of the region and also a natural cave that now serves as a spa and wellness sanctuary. From the ancient hermitage to the cistern and old shepherds keep, this land and its heritage have been lovingly preserved and uniquely developed to be shared.
