Property Description
Quinta da Retorta is a remarkable 38-hectare (94-acre) estate near Penedono, Viseu, in central Portugal, with approved plans for a large-scale tourism development within a protected area.
Development potential - the existing plan provides for a tourism project with:
• The total lodging capacity is up to 204 units or 962 beds.
• The resort hotel has 22 rooms and is a four-star property.
• There are 182 detached family houses of varying sizes, with up to five bedrooms.
• The historic winery and olive mill will be restored.
• Indoor and outdoor swimming pools, tennis and sports courts, amphitheatre, and two restaurants.
• Shopping area, a multipurpose building, two playgrounds, and leisure and visitor infrastructure.
This gives a buyer the ability to approach the estate as a phased resort-development project, a rural hospitality destination, a boutique hotel, a retreat centre, a private estate, or a lower-density tourism and agricultural business.
The estate enjoys elevated countryside views, river-influenced landscapes, wildlife, agricultural surroundings and mountain scenery. It is well positioned for rural tourism, nature tourism, retreats, walking, cycling, food and wine-based travel, and high-value countryside hospitality.
