Luminoso, the name of the property, refers to the exceptional quality of light found in this part of Portugal. Absent from the fumes and pollution found in much of Europe, the millions of stars twinkling in the night sky are a testament to the clarity of the atmosphere in the Baixo Alentejo.
Near the Barragem de Rocha on a stretch of land that runs down to the lake, the land is part of a nature reserve with a plethora of unusual birds, animals and ancient trees.
This area is one of the most rural and agricultural found in Portugal and that is its charm. Here you will still see the shepherds with their flocks, or encounter farmers moving their cattle along the small dirt roads; whilst many of the tiny villages reveal a life that could be drawn from a previous century. Acres of rolling plains are home to the famous cork oak trees and, once known as the bread basket of Portugal, huge undulating acres of green turn to golden brown in the summer months as the grains ripen
