Our Favourite Foodie Holidays

Here at Fish&Pips we live to eat, so good food is at the heart of everything we do. In our experience, a great holiday isn’t complete without great food (and beverage). 

Holidays offer the perfect excuse to not hurry anywhere. Whiling away the hours around the al fresco table with friends and family whilst feasting on local delights is one of life’s purest of pleasures. Whether you are wooed by a Michelin Star or prefer a more relaxed and authentic affair, we promise when you holiday with us, there will be something special on offer to tickle your tastebuds. 

Stay the F&P way to experience the perfect holiday recipe – read on to whet your appetite…

Farm to table in Alentejo Portugal

Discover only the freshest organic produce at São Lourrenço do Barrocal where the seasonally changing menu is grown in the estate’s gardens or sourced from local producers. We love that all of the meat provided is also certified organic. Remember to pair your meal with one of the organic wines that are grown and produced on the estate (for the past 200 years). A visit to their winery to discover their winemaking tradition and learn about the grape varieties is a must-do whilst staying here.
