This impressive land is situated between Cercal and Vila Nova de Milfontes and is in a prime location near Serra do Cercal.
Vila Nova de Milfontes was once a small fishing village, and as a county seat, it was never beautiful (in 1801, it had only 1,559 inhabitants). It ceased to be the county seat in 1836 when it was incorporated first into the county of Cercal and then, in 1855, into Odemira, to which it still belongs today.
The estate offers 92 ha of land with an 80 sq m ruin, several trees, including pine trees, and a sea view.
Vila Nova de Milfontes is a civil parish in Odemira, district of Beja, on the north bank of the mouth of the River Mira. It is in the Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina Natural Park. The parish covers 75.88 sq km and has 5,031 inhabitants (2011), or about 65.9 inhabitants per sq km.
At the end of the Christian reconquest, the Alentejo coast was a sparsely populated and disorganised part of Portugal. Hence, King Afonso III donated significantly to the Order of Santiago to reward its essential role in the war against the Moors. King John II founded a new village in 1486 called Milfontes to protect and develop trade. He annexed this from the municipality of Sines, to which it had previously belonged, and created a new municipality from 1486 to 1836.
The area has some heritage, namely the Fort of São Clemente and the Castle of Vila Nova de Milfontes, the surrounding natural park and the parish church: The Church of Nossa Senhora da Graça (Vila Nova de Milfontes) and the São Sebastião hermitage (Vila Nova de Milfontes), as well as its beaches (Malhão, Cruz and Aivados).
