Last month, we had the honour of being hosted by their events team to discover the venue for ourselves. It was a joy to experience this incredible property and the outstanding hospitality that they provide. Enjoy a few of our highlights in the post below!
Nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Portugal, São Lourenço do Barrocal is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. Imagine exchanging vows under clear blue skies and with rolling countryside as your witness. This exclusive venue offers the perfect blend of sophistication and relaxation, ensuring an unforgettable wedding experience for you and your guests.
The São Lourenço do Barrocal estate has been in the same family for over 200 years! Between 2002 and 2016 it was lovingly restored into the five-star hotel that stands there today, complete with a winery, multiple farm-to-table restaurants and a Susanne Kaufmann spa.
With exclusive-use accommodation for up to 120 guests onsite, you can host a truly personal celebration. Each guest room has been meticulously designed to reflect the rustic charm of the region, but still offers modern amenities and unparalleled comfort. Whether you are lounging by the outdoor pool, indulging in a spa treatment, or exploring the activities on offer, every moment infuses luxury and relaxation.
One of the highlights of a wedding at São Lourenço do Barrocal is the culinary experience. Their talented chefs dedicate themselves to creating farm-to-table dishes inspired by traditional Alentejo flavors. They use fresh produce sourced from the estate’s organic vegetable gardens, so each dish is a celebration of local cuisine and seasonal ingredients. To complement the exquisite food, São Lourenço do Barrocal offers a selection of single-estate wines, produced in their own winery. With numerous restaurants and dining locations on-site, the venue perfectly lends itself to multi-day celebrations, and whether it’s the rehearsal dinner or the wedding feast, every bite reflects the region’s rich culinary heritage.
Having had the pleasure of experiencing São Lourenço do Barrocal firsthand, I can attest to its unparalleled luxury and charm. From the moment you arrive, the team welcomes you with warm hospitality and genuine care. We truly can’t thank them enough for the personal and attentive service they provided throughout our stay.
