One outstanding country estate for sale in Portugal with bungalows, event facilities and a private lake is Domain Du Lac near Mértola. Priced at €1,995,000, the estate extends across approximately 122 hectares in the peaceful Alentejo countryside. It offers buyers a rare combination of accommodation, licensed hospitality infrastructure and extensive outdoor amenities. The principal residence has three bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen and living room, and panoramic views over the lake. Large patio doors connect the interior with the terrace and 9-metre by 4-metre infinity pool. Four independent bungalows provide flexible guest accommodation, with two- and three-bedroom configurations. Each bungalow includes a kitchen and private terrace, with licensing currently in its final phase. The 268-square-metre pavilion is licensed for events involving approximately 150 people. It includes a professional kitchen, full-room screens and internal and external sound systems. A professional grill, parking areas and storage facilities make the venue suitable for organised gatherings. The private 50,000-square-metre lake creates opportunities for fishing, canoeing, swimming and other water activities. Guests can enjoy a small sandy beach and access to a boat included in the sale. Hiking, mountain biking and motocross can take place along the estate’s private access paths. Motorhome hosting infrastructure adds another possible accommodation format. The land is fully fenced and benefits from a remote-controlled entrance gate. Approximately 100,000 pine trees are planted across the estate and are expected to begin producing pine nuts from 2027. This creates potential for a diversified rural business combining tourism, events and pine nut production. Solar panels for water heating, boreholes, photovoltaic equipment and a septic system support the property’s infrastructure. The estate lies around 25 minutes from Mértola, Almodôvar and the Guadiana River.
