A house on the Atlantic,
in the garden of Portugal.
In the heart of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. The house sleeps ten in the main building; eucalyptus older than memory rise from the garden, the swimming pool sits under the trees, and a small Finnish sauna stands in its own wooden house.
Sleeps ten, five bedrooms, three bathrooms. Pool, sauna, and a garden of old eucalyptus - twenty minutes from the Atlantic beaches, forty from Lisbon.
Casa Pavão is founded by Marie-Luise Borek, together with her husband Sebastian.
Pavão Dourado is Marie-Luise Borek's jewellery - made in small numbers, mostly by hand, in the same house that gives it its name.
Ten of us under one roof and not one moment felt crowded. The children lived in the pool, we lived at the long table.
Jivan cooked for us for five days. Every plate came from the garden or a neighbour - I have not eaten better anywhere.
Eucalyptus, spring water, the Atlantic twenty minutes away. We left slower than we arrived.
