Manor Borba (Portugal)
Near Borba, in the Alentejo, Quinta do General, a 16th-century estate featuring a mansion designed by Raul Lino. 400 years in the same family. That figure speaks for itself. It simply raises the question of what one gives up when passing on a place like this. Quinta do General dates back to the 16th century. Architect Raul Lino left his mark on the property, expanding the manor house with the precision and sensitivity that characterize his work. The 18th-century private chapel, adorned with azulejos, bears witness to what the great families of the Alentejo built for themselves when they built for eternity. The landscaped gardens, the spacious salons, the nine bedrooms: a setting that four centuries of continuous care have maintained in a condition that few Portuguese estates can claim.
