Cheap:
The rental price compared to other villas with large pools is very cheap. There is a small round (4.00 x 0.9m) pool to cool down in when it is hot. The house is recommended for families with small children.
Quiet natural area:
It is no longer permitted to build in the area, this means that you will be away from the tourist noise for your stay. The house has a large terrace area, partly covered, which is superb for watching sunsets or for lying in the sun or shade. The beaches in this part of the Algarve are mainly used by locals, there are even islands where one can be almost alone. There are many Golf Clubs in the area with great greens e.g. Adolfo da Quinta which lies behind our local mountain Adolfo da Quinta, simply drive passed the house to reach the course.
Trips:
In 15 minutes by car one can reach Olhão, where there are 2 large modern Market halls, 1 for fruit, vegetables and meat the other for fish and seafood, that can be heartily recommended. Large shopping centres, small shops and boutiques are very inviting for a shopping trip. In Olhão harbour there are ferries to the islands. Day trips with the car for instance Cabo São Vincente (end of the earth in old Europe), Monchique mountains, you can drive along the cliff coasts of western Algarve or even to Lissabon. The 40 km drive to Spain (Andalusia) takes about 40 minutes, travelling through small coastal towns on both sides of the boarder. It takes just 2 hours to drive to Seville and 4 hours to Gordoba or Malaga. For something different it’s worth taking a trip to the Huelva Province. The National Park Donana and the nature reserves Isla de En medio, Laguna El Portil and Marisma de El Burro are also worth visiting for nature lovers.
