Measured in a straight line from the centre of Lisbon. That is a distance, not a journey. We know where each of these places is to within a few metres and we know nothing whatever about the roads, so this page will not tell you how long anything takes — and neither will any page that dresses a straight line up as “two hours away”.
East into the upper Alentejo, or south down the Atlantic side towards the Algarve. A short list, and short for a reason worth saying out loud: the Portuguese list is one of the smallest on the site, so this page is less a filtered subset of it than a good part of the whole thing.
3 places, from Gavião Nature Village at about 80 miles out to The Lemon Lodge at about 100 miles.

We take the coordinates on each published listing, measure the great-circle distance from a single point in Lisbon to each of them, keep everything inside 125 miles and sort nearest first. Distances are rounded to the nearest five miles, because a city centre is a convention rather than a coordinate and the second decimal place would be pretending otherwise.
84 of the 85 published listings carry coordinates. The one that does not cannot appear here at all — a place with no pin has no distance, and estimating one from its county would be an invention.
Only cities with three or more places inside 125 miles get a page — the same floor the collections keep. Or ignore geography and filter all 85 places instead.
