About this property

Large well-appointed villa in rolling hills, set in 4 acres looking south west down a valley studded with carob and olive trees, carpeted with wild flowers in Spring. This wonderfully peaceful location is only 7km from some of the finest beaches in the Algarve, close to the lovely towns of Castro Marim (5km) and Vila Real (7km). Spain is 10 mins by car and Seville 90 minutes.The glorious River Guadiana and its valley is close by and a drive north takes you to the small towns, vineyards & cork oaks of the Alentejo. Monte Gordo with its lively nightlife and casino is on the nearby coast.
The villa is very well situated for those wishing to explore; or you may prefer to laze by the solar heated pool, re-tiled with new lights winter 2020/21, and to soak up the views from the various terraces, or shaded decking area where the main BBQ is placed. It is surrounded by open countryside, and is well distanced from other properties and people, perhaps relevant during Covid concerns.
The salt marshes around Castro Marim are renowned for birdwatching. As for golf, the closest courses, in order of expense, are Castro Marim, (5km),with 27 holes, Quinta do Vale, designed by Seve Ballasteros, (7km), and Monte Rei designed by Jack Nicklaus, (8km). Others within a 30 minute drive include Quinta da Ria, Quinta da Cima and Benamor. There are several more over the border in Spain.

Wonderful holiday

We have had a wonderful and peaceful holiday. The villa is very comfortable and homely. The pool is great as is all the various outside sitting areas so you can find either sun or shade while taking in the lovely views.

Casa extradionária mas...

Adorámos a casa, a piscina e a localização. Muito limpa, com ar condionado novo em todas as divisões e todas as infraestruturas são de muita qualidade. No entanto o check-in não correu muito bem com o Sr. Luis que se mostrou pouco simpático e empático. A casa não tem água potável, é do poço, e tem fossa. Conclusão: Adorámos a estadia. O proprietário foi excecional connosco, mas achámos que o anúncio deveria informar que ainda não têm água potável :-) Vão ter em breve :-) Obrigada Mr. Richard.

It was a wonderful week

This is a lovely villa with amazing views and in a very quiet area. We are three generations who spent a wonderful week here. The villa is extremely well equipped and everything was as described. Luis met us on arrival and showed us round and was very helpful. It was very hot during our stay and, apart from a couple of trips to the beach, we were all happy to spend most of our time round the pool. We also went to a festival at Castro Marim one evening which everyone enjoyed. We would recommend to anyone wanting a quiet break.
