The indoor- outdoor space was as tranquil and inviting as the photographs suggest. Birds nesting in cypresses, swifts saying hello in the late afternoon. Fantastic location- semi rural, yet 10 minutes drive to Loulé- great supermarket and even better Saturday market in the centre (go early for an easy parking space). 20 mins from Faro, 30mins to Tavira. Nicolas was very responsive with communications and the property guide was accurate and easy to follow. May was the perfect time - and the pool, delicious.

Idyllic rural location 15 mins drive from Loule. Excellent spot for a Peaceful retreat from the modern world but within 15-30 minute drive of shops, towns, beaches, airport etc and with all important wifi. Check in was simple with detailed information on all aspects of the procedure and the villa supplied in good time by Nicholas. The house was spacious and comfortable with all the amenities required for a great stay. The pool was amazing but durable our stay it was just a bit too cold despite the temperatures being around 25C during the day. There are no restaurants or bars within reasonable walking distance. Beware that the track from the main road to the villa is unpaved and rugged. Careful with the hire car as you usually aren't covered for damage caused off road. It's perfectly safe but drive with care. Grounds and countryside are stunning. We would definitely consider going back for a longer stay.

Very enjoyable stay

Really lovely relaxing stay with everything we needed. Location meant we weren’t overlooked. Great for watching all the different birds, especially the resident swallows. The villa is down a dirt track that is very narrow at times, but we got used to it. There were a couple of barking dogs that could be heard overnight, but aside from that everything was fab.

Nice villa in a very quiet, rural neighborhood. Nice bathrooms and spacious kitchen. Comfy beds. Nice view from the pool to the (distant) Ocean. The pool was nice and clean. The place is secluded so very private, but car is a must.

First time in Portugal and first time villa holiday. Was perfect we loved every minute of our stay. Villa was perfect. We arrived slightly earlier than check in and the housekeeper kindly allowed us to wait around the pool area until she had finished. The area was beautiful and peaceful.

Nice location with lot of space

We enjoyed this nice house in a very quite and large garden area very much. Just some small ideas for optimization: better pans and pots in the kitchen, and a shower with more water pressure (which might be caused by the elevated location in the hills.). Maybe two towels instead of one per person would be ideal for a stay of one week.

Lovely country property

I visited with my family and young nephew and really enjoyed the countryside and peace offered by the country location. Property has a beautiful inviting swimming pool especially as the temperature was up in the high 30s during our visit. Facilities good but kitchen could do with a little TLC and we would have appreciated more than just a bath towel each (no hand towel provided). Would recommend visiting if you are looking to get away from it all

Fantastic villa - great location

We had a lovely stay in the villa. The location was perfect for us: rural and quiet. The communication with Nicolas was always prompt and easy. The villa itself is basic but has everything you need - this is reflected in the very reasonable price. I would recommend taking beach towels and also extra pillow cases to make use of the extra pillows stored in the cupboards. I would 100% recommend.
