Sunset in the #Alentejo - while we were out taking a tour of the #MalhadinhaNova estate - I remember the big skies in #Portugal from my last trip and this one was no less stunning. @malhadinhanova is a fabulous 5* spa hotel with restaurant, winery and stud. There's a gorgeous outdoor pool, the largest jacuzzi I've ever seen and some beautifully decorated luxury rooms. We learnt that the hotel is expanding, building a few villas and private suites right out in the country away from the main hotel building - and we saw the cows and pigs which are farmed for the Hotel's own use. Sadly it was too windy to take a balloon flight - but that just means I need to go back! Decorated in contemporary yet clearly portuguese style, this was a place where everything seemed effortless. Definitely worth a visit. @Kaveyeats and @foodie_explorers @VisitPortugal #VisitAlentejo #tapportugal #VisitPortugal #travelblogger #instatbn #writetotravel #instapassport #postcardsfromtheworld #guardiantravelsnaps #ttot #tbin #travelblog #bbctravel #secretplaces #boutiquehotel #LuxuryHotel
