The charming village of Azeitão is just 10 minutes away from the villa by car. It’s surrounded by sprawling vineyards and olive groves and is at the heart of Portugal’s wine-producing region.
As such, it’s most famous for its wines, particularly Moscatel. You can go on guided tours of wine estates, with the museum and vineyard of Quinta da Bacalhôa being well worth a visit.
During the tour you’re treated to samples, information on wine-making and stunning art collections and exhibitions. You can also see examples of local Azulejo tiles.
Just a couple of minutes outside of the village is the majestic Arrábida Natural Park. This protected pine-covered area is home to many rare plant species and as you follow paths through the park you’ll come across a beautiful 16th-century monastery and several chapels. Head down to the beach below for crystal clear and calm waters that are ideal for snorkelling and swimming.
The city of Setúbal is around a 30 minute drive east of the villa. A port city with a rich fishing heritage, there’s something for everyone here. For the culture lovers, there are a range of attractions to visit within the city’s historical centre.
The Museu de Arqueologia is one of the most fascinating places to discover Setúbal’s history through a range of artefacts. There’s also a pretty harbour for watching boats coming and going over a delicious lunch at a traditional restaurant.
