About this property

Exceptional 6 Bedroom Villa with Private Pool, large gardens and stunning views

The Manoir is a wildly romantic, 19th Century, 6 bedroom, 5 bathroom lovingly restored Villa set among extensive gardens, olive groves and orchards in the unspoiled Eastern Algarve with breathtaking views across the hills towards the coast.

Outside you will find a full-size pool (which can be heated between April and June at additional cost), lawned gardens and hidden corners where you can snooze with a book. Enjoy Al Fresco dining with our 2 BBQ's (one gas and one charcoal) and working pizza oven.

Inside you will find high beamed ceilings, masses of space, lovingly collected art and fine pieces of furniture. The large dining room will be set for your arrival (you can hire our private chef). There will be a substantial welcome pack including local produce and wine. . Three Bedrooms (2 Bathrooms) are on the ground floor with Three more Bedrooms (3 Bathrooms) upstairs. Egyptian cotton bedding and pretty occasional furniture add to the charm. We provide fluffy house towels, pool towels and lovely organic toiletries made by the renowned Algarve Candle Company. You can purchase home made jams and oils via our honesty box in the hall!

The garden wraps around the house so you can follow (or hide from) the sun. Organise yoga and Tai chi sessions out here,(or shiatsu massage); the new yoga shala overlooks the olive groves. Enjoy evenings under the covered dining area with barbecue and family table tennis tournaments!

The Manoir is a much loved family home which will wrap you into it’s embrace. You will feel very peaceful here whilst only being a short drive to many sandy beaches… Walk to a great restaurant and bar! Let us spoil you.

Great stay even with rainy days

We had a lovely time at the Manoir. The house was just like in the pictures and everyone involved were so kind and helpful! The house was equipped and stocked with everything we could possibly need. The welcome spread of local food and drinks was such a generous touch! The weather wasn’t so great during our stay, but the house was big enough for us all to stay indoors, sit by the fire and just relax without feeling like we were on top of each other. We hired their recommended chef, Momme, for two evenings. His food was divine and he was so kind. We’d love to come back and visit again soon!

Host profile image

I love restoring unloved houses to bring them back to life. I am also passionate about organic, just picked produce. You will have the opportunity to buy my homemade oils and preserves via our honesty box. Your welcome pack will include a selection of local produce including wine.

Why they chose this property

I bought The Manoir so that I could keep my Spanish horses there and as a family holiday home. Now that my family have flown the nest, I am happy to share the wonders of the Manoir with guests who will love my home as much as I do!

What makes this property unique

The Manoir is a family home, rather than a holiday let........we invite you to love and enjoy The Manoir as much as we do.
