A rural tourism estate with an event pavilion and private lake in Portugal is available here for €1,995,000. Located in the Alentejo countryside near Mértola, this 122-hectare property includes a 268 m² pavilion, an established main house, four bungalows and a 50,000 m² lake. It gives buyers a substantial base for a rural hospitality, events or nature-focused business concept. The main residence provides three bedrooms, an open-plan living space and a fully fitted kitchen. Large patio doors frame views of the 9-metre by 4-metre infinity pool and lake. An A+ energy certificate and solar water-heating panels contribute to efficient day-to-day living. The property is recorded with a total of 11 bedrooms and eight bathrooms. Four independent bungalows, each around 40 m², add privacy for guests and flexibility for accommodation planning. Each bungalow has a kitchen and private terrace, and the licensing process is in its final phase. The event pavilion is equipped with a professional kitchen, full-room screens and internal and external sound systems. It can host approximately 150 people and benefits from associated parking and a professional barbecue area. The venue could suit corporate events, celebrations, retreats and organised group activities, subject to the applicable permissions. Guests can fish, canoe or swim in the private lake. A sandy beach, lake activity equipment and an included boat enhance the leisure offer. The surrounding land has paths suitable for hiking, mountain biking and motocross. Around 100,000 pine trees are growing for pine nut production, with the first harvest expected in 2027. That plantation may create an additional future income opportunity, although profitability will depend on yields, management and market prices. Two boreholes, estate-wide water pipes, photovoltaic equipment and a fully fenced boundary assist with independent rural operation. The estate is approximately 25 minutes from Mértola, Almodôvar and the Guadiana River. Golf is around 60 minutes away, the Algarve beaches are about 60 minutes away and Faro Airport is approximately 80 minutes away.
