About Barbara Thomann
In 1995 George and I decided to change our life and move from Switzerland to the Portuguese Alentejo. We had already known the Algarve for many years but were fascinated by the unspoilt beautiful landscape of the Alentejo. So we bought our farm, started to breed cattle, especially an old endangered species, the Garvonesa cow. In the meantime many more animals, endangered and not endangered ones, as well as an equestrian center with Lusitano horses completed our activities. We love our country life in this wonderful climate and are happy to share it with our friends and guests.
Barbara Thomann purchased this farmhouse in 1995
Why Barbara Thomann chose Alcáçovas
The property is very conveniently located, not too far from urban Lisbon and close to historic Evora and the vast Alentejano beaches. The large size of the farm with it's private lake offers great privacy.
What makes this farmhouse unique
Our guests cannot only spend a relaxing holiday but also follow the daily life of an extensively cultivated farm with suckling cows, horses and a great variety of other animals. For guests interested in equestrian activities we offer riding lessons on our Lusitano horses for beginners and experienced riders as well as visits to our stud and training center.
