Quinta de Bispos is excellently situated on the slopes of the Caramulo mountain ridge in central Portugal and combines the quiet of a rural environment with all the services that may be expected from a quality hotel.

An important part of our ecological profile is the installation of a 310 m2 fotovoltaic solar panel producing electricity. It has a capacity of 43,200 Wp producing more than 55,000 kWh a year, which we estimate, will be enough to cover approximately 40 % of the quinta’s energy needs.

The waters from the sewers are bio-degraded in a special tank, and used for irrigation. All waste is separated, and organic waste is composted.
The great majority of the lamps (wherever possible) are energy-saving. The air-conditioning is turned off automatically when a window is opened, and the lights shut off automatically when a room is unoccupied.
