In Vila Pouca da Beira, in central Portugal, Lam Hotel Convento do Desagravo occupies a historic eighteenth-century building surrounded by gardens, a vineyard and olive grove. Its rural setting puts the natural and cultural attractions of the region within reach, while giving an offsite a quieter backdrop. A multipurpose room equipped with sound equipment and a projector accommodates meetings, conferences and celebrations; several outdoor areas can also be used for events. The restaurant focuses on regional cooking, using fresh local ingredients, and there is a bar on site. Between sessions, guests can spend time at the outdoor pool, on the tennis court or in the games room.
