We have over 30 years experience of renting our holiday home in this wonderfully unspoilt area of the Portuguese Algarve to discerning guests who love the peace and beauty that it offers. In 2004 we built Casa Pinheiro in a superb front line position at the water's edge in a nature reserve known as the Ria Formosa, 5 miles to the west of Tavira in a peaceful undeveloped part of the Algarve.
Casa Pinheiro is set in 5 acres of its own land running down to a tidal lagoon with the beach and the sea on the other side.
In front of the villa our land runs down to a tidal sea lagoon where local fishermen harvest shellfish etc. and moor their colourful boats. On the other side of the lagoon is a five mile long sandy Atlantic beach. The lagoon is ideal for sailing and windsurfing when the tide in.
The infinity swimming pool is 11 metres long and over 4 metres wide, with internal steps.
For golfers, there is a lovely new 36 hole golf club called Quinta da Ria just to the east of Tavira at a place called Fabrica. There is also the less challenging Benamor course, designed by Henry Cotton which opened in 2000 on the outskirts of Tavira.
Bird life is exceptionally interesting. Contact Rhodri Bradley-Jones for more information on this or anything else you wish to follow up.
Casa Pinheiro is a private family villa set in a beautiful nature reserve in an unspoilt region of the Algarve. The villa has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and sleeps up to 8 people.
There are plenty of excellent inexpensive Portuguese restaurants in the area.
Casa Pinheiro is a haven of tranquillity and offers a relaxing, and peaceful sunshine holiday.
