Win a Two-Night Active Holiday for Two in Portugal

Portugal’s Quinta do Lago has teamed up with Condé Nast Traveller to give away a two-night active holiday for two, including breakfast, supper, a day’s membership at the health club, The Campus, and a round of golf on one of its world-class courses

Set along the Algarve’s golden coast with privacy, quiet and the exquisite beauty of the Ria Formosa nature reserve on its doorstep, Quinta do Lago is a bolthole where outdoor adventure and exercise such as Beach Bootcamp, Boxfit sessions and other classes at The Campus coexist with relaxing afternoons in the wellness area's hot tub and sauna and drawn-out suppers in smart restaurants. It’s a European masterclass in how to live well (and safely, with new Covid-friendly measures) from morning jogs along its nature trails to afternoon siestas by the pretty pool of its boutique hotel, The Magnolia Hotel.

The winner and a guest will be staying at The Magnolia Hotel, a stylish escape with a wonderfully kitsch (and locally wired) in-house restaurant, tennis courts, a gym and a large heated outdoor pool. A low-key ethos with five-star service sets the tone while crisp, comfortable beds offer repose after days packed with sun-soaked activities.

These mainly roll out at The Campus, Quinta do Lago’s multi-sports hub where a mix of guests and residents lean into the high-energy lifestyle at the smart gym, tennis and padel courts, in the enormous swimming pool, and with personal training and group classes (including everything from yoga to body sculpting). The winner and a guest can make the most of these classes and activities with a day’s membership pass to The Campus, along with the resort’s impressive golf courses where one round of golf for two is also included.

Back at the hotel, breakfast is included on both days, when the winner and a guest can choose from an array of yogurts, cereals, eggs, fresh fruit and pancakes, all topped off with Portuguese pastries. Supper is included for one night at Casa Do Lago, the resort’s elegant lakeside restaurant, (where views of local seabirds landing gracefully on the water accompany plates of fresh seafood such as chilli calamari, yellowfish tuna and paccheri pasta with squid, prawns and clams), then on the second night at Bovino Steakhouse – a warm, convivial space where a mixture of cuts, meaty Portuguese classics and vegetarian plates are served alongside flamboyant cocktails.

Return flights from London, to the value of £255, are included, with airport transfers to the hotel covered by Quinta do Lago. The prize is valid until 27 May 2022.

This competition closes on 27 May 2021
