Nature Ground Corgo do Pardieiro

Corgo do Pardieiro is located in the South-West of Portugal, the Alentejo (region Odemira and Ourique). The characteristics of this region are the coast with many beautiful beaches, high planes, hills and valleys, cork oaks and olive trees, the small, white villages and above all: lots of sun shine.

This is the ideal environment for those who are longing for a quiete beautiful place. Stay with us and enjoy!
Enjoy the warmth of the sun, a beautiful view, relax in a hammock and feel nature.
Go for a hike or a (bike) ride.
At night wonder about the million stars or listen to the scream of a tawny owl or the song of a nightingale.

Sol-Luz-Sao

The association "Sol-Luz-Sao" is dedicated to nature conscience and personal growth.
On the estate (8.5 hectares / 21 acres) you can experience with us another way of living.
Camp out in your tent or caravan, on the top of a hill under an old stone oak; in the valley of olive trees; under the oak trees or a private site under fruit trees and laurel near the creek.

Our guests can use the kitchen, sanitary buildings with shower and toilet, and picnic tables.

NEW: Did not bring your own tent? Use our new 6-persons tent! If you prefer: there is also a 4-persons tent available.

When you stay on Corgo do Pardieiro we ask a donation.
With this donation we can develop more natural solutions and maintain the grounds.

You can eat with us a delicious and vegetarian or vegan meal.
In the morning we have homebaked bread.

Friendly pets are welcome.

On the 8,5 hectare natural area of the estate with old cork oaks and olive trees we have a variety of additional young trees, bushes and flowers (such as this melianthus). 

All year round you can enjoy this beautiful place. In spring and autumn the climate is very enjoyable and in spring nature is at its best with lots of flowers!

Several hike and mountain bike routes start from the grounds, varying in length from one hour to one day. We have mountain bikes.

The small village of Amoreiras-Gare is nearby (2,5 km) and has two small food stores and several restaurants where you can enjoy a simple meal or relax with a glas of wine among the locals. Watch the video!

At the station at Funcheira you can take the train for a day trip to e.g. Lisbon or Faro (Algarve).
