"Herdade da Corte, an appeal to laziness…"
In Santa Catarina de Tavira, and only 10 minutes from the beach, Herdade da Corte is the perfect retreat for getting to know the most authentic and genuine Algarve, without its traditional mass tourism label.
It is in its two “Montes” (estates), “Monte da Beleza” and “Monte do Lavrador”, that you will find comfortable rooms, decorated in a simple, rustic yet practical style. The restaurant is another delight of this unit, offering authentic regional dishes, with a certain touch of modernity and a great desire to promote the food tradition of this ancient region of Portugal. The sound of jazz in the background (with concerts sometimes), together with the nature of the place, complete this perfect setting.
Among willows and ash trees, along a trail of rosemary, thyme, rock roses, carob and strawberry trees, you can walk around to your heart’s content without leaving the estate. Tavira is just a few kilometres away, as well as the lovely Ria Formosa, a unique landscape of rare beauty and singular habitats, which is one of the most important bird watching destinations in Portugal and is the region with the highest diversity of bird species in the country.
The proposal of Herdade da Corte is to give you the chance to get to know the most authentic Algarve, authentic in terms of the “go local” concept, of its closeness to the destination and its people. While waiting for your lunch.
