When it comes to rest and relaxation, it doesn’t get much better than a peaceful getaway to this picturesque farmhouse in the Portuguese countryside. Based just a short drive away from the coast of the Algarve, you’ll be well placed to explore all the beaches and quaint coastal towns that make this destination so popular. This stunning home provides you with all the rustic charm and character you’d expect from a historical home, with all the mod cons and renovations to make your stay a comfortable one, such as en-suites and ceiling fans for each bedroom. This home is designed to seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living, with a shaded terrace where you can sit back and enjoy the views, plus a barbecue setup with mini-fridge and sink, to make cooking outside an absolute pleasure. We recommend you start each morning by having a swim or a splash in the pool while watching the sunrise, and then get stuck into a good book on one of the poolside loungers and work on your tan. Cook up some Peri Peri chicken on your barbecue and dine at your outdoor dining table. Or, take a cocktail up to the roof terrace to recline and unwind with a stunning view over the Portuguese landscape.
