Who are we?

We are Dutch, we moved to Lisbon more than 5 years ago after our retirement. We fell in love with Portugal and especially the vibrant and charming Lisbon life. Yet we felt the need for more peace and greenery. A few years ago we bought Quinta do Colmeal.
In recent years we have carried out several major renovations, which have increased the living comfort and made the quinta even more charming. The quinta is a dream place and therefore by renting out the quinta we want to give others the opportunity to enjoy this sensation too.

A place to make memories.
