Food scene
If you want to experience the authentic Portuguese cuisine, we highly recommend you visit ‘Solar dos Amigos’! This is a fantastic restaurant just some 5Km away from Quinta da Mota, featuring mouth-watering charcoal grilled meat and fish dishes, with a rustic décor and wonderful atmosphere. Advance booking is a must, and take cash with you as they don’t accept card payment;

CEIA has a nice coffee shop (open all day) and a great restaurant (only open for lunch) we can warmly recommend – on weekdays meals come at €7.5 per person for the daily menu including starter, main and a drink (try their sangria!), and a la carte menu is also available. On Sundays (and occasionally on Saturdays when horse riding shows or competitions are ongoing) they serve a fantastic buffet made of a wide choice of the regional cuisine – a must in our opinion!

Beautiful Lisbon is 50 minutes’ drive away. This is an amazing city waiting to be discovered: do include the characteristic Fado (traditional portuguese music) and regional cuisine in a typical Bairro Alto taverna, a visit to Sintra palace (amazing views over the city) and also some time in the Alfama area (Mosteiro dos Jeronimos), where most of the old architecture is centred.

The exquisite Berlangas archipelago is also a must. It is a naturl reservation with fantastic opportunities for bird watching and there is also an amazing beach between the cliffs. To get there you must catch the boat from Peniche that is 15 minutes’ drive from the property
