Traditional Portuguese House

The property is lovely, with gardens to explore and a great pool. Unfortunately we were there during a few weeks of bad weather. I would have gone later in the year to get more sun and warmth. Great hiking trails nearby, but not much to do in the village — so go to relax.

We enjoyed a lovely week at the villa which was not long enough! Our plan pre-holiday was to go into Monchique town regularly to eat and explore but once we arrived we didn’t want to leave!! The villa is large and spacious and the views are wonderful however the plants around the swimming pool were in need of cutting back as they were very overgrown and trailing into the water.Eulália met us on arrival and was great and extremely helpful with many suggestions. Hopefully we will return soon.
