Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Andy Sanderson
My name is Andy Sanderson, I am English, a retired Physics teacher and tutor. Having visited Portugal a number of times over the years I decided to buy a property here and renovate it as necessary to create a nice place where I could happily live myself, but also share it by renting it to holidaymakers when not here.
Why they chose this property
I bought this property because of its size and the peaceful but not isolated location, near a large freshwater lake. Between the mountainous north where it can rain a lot in winter, and the flat Alentejo where it is too hot for me in summer, I think I found just the right climate. Also the property had a disused pool which seemed just right for renovation (now fully completed) as an ecologically-friendly and fully-automated solar-heated (off-season) bio pool. A small amount of chlorine is used in the summer months to maintain pool cleanliness, to make it easier for visitors. There is an additional annexe/car port, with a table tennis table, and a large movable garden chess/draughts table and pieces (after Lanier Graham).
What makes this property unique
The spacious nature of the house and gardens, the swimming pool, and the unusual annexe with 4-storey tower (available to visit by arrangement), together with the peaceful village location next to a town with all amenities... all of these combine to make the house a great place to stay. Very friendly neighbours and locals too, some of whom speak some English.
