Inside Holly Willoughby's 5-star luxury getaway in Portugal before cutting trip short

Holly Willoughby is now back home in London after being forced to cut short her seven-week holiday in Portugal.

Despite having to shave off two weeks to factor in 14 days of quarantine before her return to This Morning on September 1st, Holly enjoyed a lavish stay in the Algarve alongside her husband Dan Baldwin.

The smitten couple were also joined by their three doting children, Harry, 11, Belle, nine, and Chester, five.

Holly, 39, and her clan had been staying at the luxurious Quinta do Lago resort, which offers private villas with exclusive pools for a relaxing break.

The lavish 5-star resort is known as a huge celebrity hotspot where some of the biggest names in the industry can enjoy a relaxing day at the luxurious spa or get their adventure on by scuba diving.

The private retreat features the infamous Magnolia Hotel, which boasts a whopping 121 rooms.

Intertwined between a selection of stunning private villas is the Royal Suite, which features a huge private pool and tennis court.

Although she has not yet confirmed where exactly she and her family stayed during the lavish getaway, it's likely the This Morning star got cosy in their own private villa, with a personal swimming pool.

The gorgeous villa would have made the perfect home-away-from-home for Holly and Dan for their five-week getaway as the beach was only a stone's throw away from their not-so-humble abode.

Holly's three children kept the boredom at bay thanks to the endless adventurous activities that were available at luxurious Quinta do Lago resort throughout the duration of their stay.

There are four golf courses and activities including kayaking, scuba diving and horse riding.

If the clan fancied a day out, they could have packed up and taken in the stunning sights at Ria Formosa National Park and the Algarve's idyllic capital, Faro, which is just a 20 minute drive away.

During her getaway, Holly remained rather quiet across her social media platforms by only posting two photographs to her Instagram throughout the duration of her five-week stay.

The blonde beauty treated fans to a make-up free selfie as she showcased her freckles and soaked up the sun on August 1.

Holly oozed elegance as she gazed into the camera while her beachy waves cascaded down down onto her sun-kissed shoulders.

Later, on August 6, the gorgeous telly star delighted fans with an underwater selfie.

Posing in the pool, she looked effortlessly beautiful in a plunging black swimsuit and silver pendant necklace.

Holly is now isolating for 14 days after cutting her Portugal trip short as she awaits her return to This Morning on September 1st.

Government's coronavirus restrictions mean any passengers returning from Portgual need to isolate for two weeks.

Although her family trip came to a halt earlier than expected, Holly did what was necessary to keep everyone safe before she hits screens again on This Morning.

An insider told Mail Online : "Holly accepts that she has to go into quarantine and will follow the rules.

"Instead of seven weeks away she has had to make it five – but it's what she's had to do to keep the This Morning team safe and to ensure she returns to the show on time."
