This dreamy villa, surrounded by greenery, offers you a lush escape from hectic city life. It's located in the new Quinta Verde resort, close to Quinta do Lago – one of Portugal's premier golf resorts. As you'd anticipate from such an upmarket location, the home is glorious. It certainly makes quite the first impression thanks to a full-height entrance hall, complete with a chandelier and grand marble staircase leading up to the main en-suite bedroom. Stood beneath the chandelier, you'll find your eye drawn to the living room and pool area beyond – perfect for a refreshing swim at any time of the day. Despite its regal and luxurious air, the villa also manages to feel homey and relaxed. This is a place where a family can dine, lounge and chat together for hours, enjoying the Algarve's year-round sunshine. At the end of the day, make your way to any of the four bedrooms. Each one feels as though it was tailor-made for pampering and relaxation. You'll be staying just fifteen kilometres from Faro, so you can easily drop by for a spot of sightseeing, and if you want to nip over to Spain for a day trip, the national parks... near the port city of Huelva are a little over an hour away.
