Location

Quinta dos Bichos is located in Fernão Ferro, in the municipality of Seixal, in a transitional area between an urban environment and more rural surroundings. The setting is characterised by open spaces, large plots of land, and some scattered vegetation, creating a tranquil and low-density landscape.

The site is set within a sheltered area, with a calm atmosphere away from heavy movement, where natural elements and simple constructions associated with rural life predominate.

Environment and spatial organization

The farm features a functional structure, organised into different areas designated for animals. Fenced enclosures and covered zones are visible, designed to ensure protection and safety while maintaining a practical and accessible layout.

The facilities include individual stalls and spaces delimited by metal fences, with simple flooring and tiled roofs. This setup reflects an approach focused on functionality and adaptation to the needs of the animals.

Farm animals

Quinta dos Bichos includes a variety of animals typical of a rural environment. Among them are goats, sheep, rams, llamas, ponies, and pigs.

Within the group of birds, species such as the ostrich and other domestic birds stand out. Some small mammals are also present, contributing to the overall diversity of the space.

Atmosphere and setting

The space conveys a sense of simplicity and closeness to nature, where practical elements and a relaxed environment prevail. The presence of open areas, dirt paths, and fenced sections reinforces the rural character of the farm.

The combination of functional organisation and the diversity of animals creates a balanced environment, where different species can be observed in a calm and well-defined setting.
