Algarve, Portugal. Privately owned holiday accommodation, direct from the owners.
Holiday Cottages in Courtyard Setting on Restored Cork Farm
Landscaped Gardens, Large Swimming Pool and Pagoda
|
|
Originally a Cortisa (Cork Farm), the Casa and its outbuildings and grounds have long been retired from these duties. Today, the property is owned and operated by British couple, Jenny Flitton and her son Tom Parrott who have transformed the property into attractive one and two bedroom individual self-catering cottages. A feature of this property is the landscaped gardens with large Swimming Pool and purpose built Pagoda to provide a respite from the midday sun. Over 30 restaurants are within 4 kilometres of the property and well stocked supermarkets are also close by.

Outside
An impressive feature of the property is the large 12 x 7 metre swimming pool and attractive gardens. Filled with exotic plants, there is a mass of colour from the many varieties of trees and shrubs. At various times of the year, there are the heady scents of orange, lemon, almond and "Angels Trumpets" for you to enjoy. Additionally, the mature palms around the pool afford you welcome shelter from the mid-day sun, which can give you a healthy tan even in the winter months. Pool towels and mattresses for the sunbeds are supplied and will be found in your cottage.
To round off the day, why not enjoy a "sundowner" (or two) on the pool terrace, complete with a BBQ and purpose built Pagoda and watch one of the Algarve's famed sunsets.
