Let's dip into the past

Quinta das Barradas’ history can be traced back to 1735 when a doctor (and his family), based in Lagos, owned the Quinta as part of a country estate which cultivated vegetables and citrus fruits, where a large part of the harvest was exported directly to Prussia. The current owners have been running the Quinta since 1994 and have undertaken some major renovations to enable the Quinta to open to guests. Agricultural use has been maintained, the park and garden remodelled, facilities for the farm animals built and the natural swimming pool created.

Ecological swimming pool

You can relax by our natural botanical swimming pool which contains no salt, chemicals or sterilization equipment. The water is kept sparkling clean by a living ecosystem of water plants which results in a lush indigenous aquatic garden surrounding a clear natural pool which is soft on the skin and in harmony with nature.

Kids are welcome

At the Quinta das Barradas our interaction with children plays a key role, as we aim to provide a creative child orientated environment that awakens the child’s imagination and awareness of the natural world. Families can relax by the natural botanical pool or enjoy getting to know the animals on the farm. There is also a herb garden, nature trails, games room, outside games and much more to be explored. A pre-bookable babysitting service is also available at a supplement either during the day or in the evenings so parents can enjoy some well deserved time off!

The West Algarve & Lagos

The beauty of the West Algarve does not just lie on its coastline and beaches as its interior features rolling landscapes bursting with flora and fauna due to its mineral rich soil. It offers scenery of natural beauty all year round, from the almond and orchid blossoms of January to the jacaranda blooms during May and June as well as the harvest of the cork trees. The coastline offers hundreds of sandy islets, salt lagoons, steep cliffs, sandy bays and coves separated by mysterious grottoes and strange rock formations.

The ancient maritime town of Lagos is rich in over 2,000 years of history, and lies just a few kilometres away from the Quinta.
