In a world increasingly dominated by stress, technology and a strong connection with the digital world, we invite you to take a break, and reconnect with what’s real: nature, our body, our mind.
In the endless Alentejo landscapes, where the only sound you can hear is the birds singing in distance and the wind reminding us of the passage of time and washing away all our worries, join us to discover the true meaning of Slow Living. Across 3 days, we will provide you with the tools required to relearn how to live in full alignment with nature and how to take those tools into your day-to-day life in order to live in a more balanced way. Because in the end, that’s what Malhadinha is all abou: balance. The natural balance of nature and its ecosystems, balance
in health, in wellbeing… in life.
"There are special places on our planet, places of power, healing and renewal, places where the mind-body connection is enhanced and that enable us to get back in touch with our deepest innermost feelings." – Frederick Lenz

Very often we find ourselves almost prisoners of the world we live in. A world and a society where stress, self-indulgence and rush prevail and where we tend to forget what really matters. This first day in the countrside will be the perfect opportunity to reconnect with nature and with yourself, in this small paradise called Alentejo, where the peace, the silence and harmony and unbeatable.

Finish this experience with a wine tasting of some of our new vintages of organic wines.
