Emerging from a long period of darkness and cold, let's take a moment to get out and immerse yourself into nature as a way to de-stress, ground, heal and stoke your creative fire. Join us for 3 days of yoga and mindfulness, deep relaxation, conviviality, connection to nature and benefitting from the Alentejano spring.
An olive-growing estate certified organic
