We’re a small resident team, so replies come from someone who actually knows the retreat — usually within one working day. If you’re arriving for a programme, check-in runs Saturday between 4 and 7 pm, with check-out at midday.

Cotifo, near Barão de S. João

Moinhos Velhos sits in a quiet valley beside the Barragem da Bravura — fifteen minutes from Lagos and about an hour from Faro Airport. Pick-up from Lagos is free, and we’re happy to arrange a paid transfer from Faro if you let us know your flight details in advance.
