Photos and Description of this Pechao holiday cottage 2 Bedrooms, 1bathroom. Sleeps 4

Casa Do Forno is a beautiful Algarvian cottage with its own private sun baked terrace and garden. The terrace is conveniently accessed through patio doors off the living area and has a table and chairs for outside dinning . For the sun lovers the garden has loungers, a perfect place to catch those rays. The views are quite spectacular across the open countryside to the sea and islands beyond. My favourite time is relaxing on the well lit terrace in the evening with a glass of wine, cooking on the BBQ and looking out to the lights on the front at Olhao. The cottage has been tastefully decorated and furnished for comfort with a leather sofa and chair. There is satellite TV with English programmes and music stations. We have 2 separate bedrooms, one with a king size bed and the other with bunk beds. Although the cottage is in the countryside it is easy walking distance to 2 restaurants and a bar, and the village of Pechao is only 1km away with bank, pharmacy, mini market, shops etc.

Further details for this holiday cottage rental in Pechao, Portugal

Location: Casa Do Forno is situated in the countryside between Olhao and the village of Pechao. You will find the village 1km away with shops, bank, pharmacy etc. Despite being in the countryside you can easily walk to 2 very good Portuguese restaurants serving a variety of traditional Portuguese recipes and of course fresh fish daily. The nearest of these is the famous 'O'Lagar' renowned for the quality of its food. If you prefer just a drink or snack, you can find 2 bars within a few hundred yards. The coast at Olhao is only 3km. This is a working Portuguese fishing town with daily fish markets, meat fruit and veg. There is a more extensive market on a Saturday with clothes etc. From Olhao pier you can take a small passenger ferry just 15min ride across, to the idyllic islands of Armona and Farol with quaint restaurants and miles of deserted beaches. This part of the Algarve retains the true character of Portugal away from the more touristy areas.

Things to do: Being centrally placed 15min from the airport Casa Do Forno is your perfect place to stay whilst exploring the whole of the Algarve. For those of you seeking culture Faro is less than 10kms away with the historic old town, and Estoi is only 5kms away with its Palace and Roman Ruins. Faro is the capital of the Algarve and has all you would expect from a busy European city including a huge new shopping mall with cinema, food hall and designer boutiques. Several championship golf courses are within 30 mins drive and occupants of the cottage can have special rates on most of these (ask Kate for more details). The closest beach is about 3km. We recommend the beaches on the islands off Olhao as the most unspoilt beaches in the Algarve! The Ria Formosa natural park is just up the coast and well worth a visit. Within a 30min drive you will find all the tourist attractions eg. waterslide parks, zoo marine (with swimming with dolphins), casinos, nightclubs etc etc.

Other Activities: Unwinding and enjoying the year round sunshine.

Fantastic family holiday

Brockie London, UK
Review Submitted: April 12, 2009 Date of Stay:
The cottage was clean and well equipped. The secluded, sunny garden was a delight to barbecue, eat and read in. We found it very easy to reach several glorious local beaches, all of which the children loved. As well as buying groceries from the supermarket in nearby Olhao, We also sampled the food and coffee in a few of the local cafe's and restaurants in Pechao and enjoyed them. Apart from local beaches, our older children also had great fun go-carting in Almancil, shopping in Faro ( forum algarve) and catching the ferry from Olhao to the relaxing island of Armona for the day. The weather was beautiful.
