Flamboyant Boutique B&B

Serra do Bouro, Oeste, Portugal

Nestled in the picturesque landscape of Portugal's so-called "Silver Coast", north of Lisbon, this is the ideal place to relax after a day full of interesting discoveries.

Flamboyant Boutique Bed and Breakfast is an adults only retreat with a fascinating history. The windmill is a Portuguese heritage site and dates back to the late nineteenth century, as do the main house and the waterwell. The hosts Hayat and Patrick bought and renovated the property in 2014. After many trips of their own - from Goa to Brazil - they have developed a very precise idea of ​​a feel-good place and wanted to offer exactly that to their guests.

The Flamboyant is a place for culture lovers, active vacationers and connoisseurs who would like to experience as much of the local flair as possible and are interested in the region. In the three free standing suites with a view of the greenery and in the mill with a view of the village church, a clear yet colorful and contemporary style creates an immediate holiday atmosphere. No matter whether you doze by the pool on pink sun loungers, read in the shade on orange Acapulco chairs or enjoy a delicious regional breakfast on the sun terrace under a lush lemon tree.

The coastal town is located near the medieval town of Óbidos, between the Atlantic beaches of Peniche and Nazaré. The UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Alcobaça, Tomar, Batalha, Mafra and Sintra invite you to take exciting day trips neatly presented in Flamboyant’s very own tourist guide. Many restaurants and pubs nearby serve typical Portuguese cuisine with lots of fresh fish and vegetables. More Portugal is not possible.
