Come as you are. Leave restored.

A working farm in the hills above the River Ave. Ancient olive trees. Lemons on the branch. Goats in the morning light. And in the middle of it all, a place set for you to stop, breathe, and hear from God.

Welcome to Freedom Quinta

… where not everything needs to be earned.

Life has a way of piling up. The responsibilities, the losses, the relentless forward motion. And somewhere in the middle of it all, something in you goes quiet – not peaceful quiet, but the quiet of something depleted.

Maybe you can’t name exactly what you need. You just know you can’t keep going the way you’ve been going. Freedom Quinta exists for that moment.

Sabbatical Stays

A season to lay the weight of leadership down and return renewed. Shaped around what you truly need.

Rest. Roots. Renewal.

The farm is alive with the rhythms of the seasons – fruit trees heavy with harvest, the gentle sounds of the animals, and views across the valley that stop time in its tracks. There is space to wander, to sit in the garden, to do absolutely nothing at all.

But Freedom Quinta is more than beautiful. For those who need it, there is real support here: counselling, inner healing prayer, spiritual direction, and debriefing for those in demanding vocational ministry. You can come for a single night or stay for a season. You can come alone, as a couple, or as a small group.

The only requirement is that you come.

"A truly peaceful and refreshing place. The beautiful garden, quiet atmosphere, and sense of God's presence make it a perfect place to rest, reflect, and reconnect with who God created you to be. I wholeheartedly recommend this place and have already done so to others."

“This place is unlike anywhere I’ve ever been. Beth and the team held space for me in a way I didn’t know I needed.”

"Our stay at this quiet countryside retreat in Portugal was truly special. Set in a peaceful village surrounded by nature, it is the perfect place to rest, reflect, and reconnect. We were introduced to Beth through a house church we visited, and although we arrived as strangers, we were welcomed like family from the very beginning. Beth is an amazing host with a genuinely kind and caring heart, and she made our stay unforgettable. We left not only refreshed, but feeling like we had made a lifelong friend. We will definitely return the next time we visit Portugal. Highly recommended for anyone looking for peace, rest, and authentic Christian fellowship.”
