For buyers searching for an investment property near Almodôvar with accommodation, outdoor activities and pine nut potential, Domain Du Lac is a compelling option. The Alentejo estate is for sale at €1,995,000 and covers approximately 122 hectares between Almodôvar and Mértola. Its established facilities support a rural tourism concept rather than a simple residential purchase. The main house has three bedrooms, an A+ energy certificate and an open-plan living space overlooking the infinity pool and lake. Four separate bungalows add guest accommodation, with two- and three-bedroom arrangements, kitchens and private terraces. These bungalows are in the final licensing phase, offering scope for a future tourism operation subject to completion. A licensed event pavilion can accommodate around 150 participants and includes professional catering and audiovisual equipment. Corporate retreats, celebrations, activity weekends and private functions could all suit the pavilion’s layout. The estate’s 50,000-square-metre private lake supports fishing, canoeing, swimming and other water-based recreation. A boat for aquatic sports is included, while a sandy beach creates a distinctive guest amenity. Private paths allow visitors to enjoy hiking, mountain biking and motocross without leaving the property. Motorhome infrastructure may help attract travellers seeking nature-based stays. The surrounding pine plantations include approximately 100,000 trees currently in their growth phase. The first pine nut harvest is expected in 2027, providing possible future agricultural revenue. Any projected return should be assessed through a detailed business plan, licensing review and professional financial advice. The property is fully fenced and has boreholes, water distribution pipes and photovoltaic equipment. Solar water heating and an A+ rating may assist with operational efficiency. Mértola, Almodôvar and the Guadiana River are all around 25 minutes away. The Algarve coastline and golf facilities are roughly 60 minutes from the estate, and Faro Airport is approximately 80 minutes away.
