We’d love to visit! How long does it take to get to you from Faro?

Hey Charles - it's about an hour and a half...a lovely drive cross country, or a meander up the coast stopping off at some nice spots on the way like Aljezur or Odeceixe.

Congratulations Ana and Alastair, we’ve been following your adventure, overcoming many tough situations and hopeful you will make it - you have!! We’ re finally getting to visit Vicentino tomorrow with friends and neighbours for a wine tasting on your recommendation and after a few bottles of pre tasting here in the Algarve - the Sauvignon - unique flavours. Look forward to meeting you both one day for one of your wine events

Good luck with your venture, the place looks superb and the location perfect.

Best wishes Colin & Elisabeth Ball

Fantastic...I hope you enjoyed it...although we dropped by yesterday and they still hadn't released the new espumante. Let us know next time you're heading up the coast.

Alistair , we had an informative and enjoyable wine tasting with Carlos and no, he wasn’t allowed to let us taste the espumante either. Please keep us up to date on plans for your end November wine event if it goes ahead. We are now back in the UK as of today but could well be returning very soon.

Best regards Colin & Elisabeth

I'll start ordering the wine...but I very much do hope we'll see you again before then! We saw a guy on the cliff edge above the birthday beach the other day doing tai chi and thought of you!

You must...folks whose eyes won't glaze over when I talk about water treatment and the benefits of LPWAN for remote monitoring!

Congratulations! The property’s beauty is matched by your stellar energy. How many people can be accommodated for a retreat?

Expand full comment

Thanks very much Eileen. We can comfortably accommodate 20 people for retreats, but more for family groups.
