Outside
The villa is set in its own large lawned garden, bordered with mature trees and shrubs. The large blue tiled swimming pool is 11 x 6m, is for the sole use of the guests. It is not deep so suitable for non swimmers. It is only 1.1m with built-in steps at the shallow end and 1.3m at the deep end. This also means it is warmer than pools with deeper water. There is a changing room and loo hidden beneath a leafy canopy on the far side of the pool. There is an attractive shaded area with dining facilties beside the built-in barbecue and bread oven. The sitting room has sliding glass doors opening onto a long covered terrace which is furnished for outside meals.
Coast/Beach
The long soft sandy beach of Alvor, extending along to Tres Irmaos, is about a 10 minute drive away to the east. Then the Meia Praia beach, also beautifully soft and sandy is on the west side but perhaps 20 minutes further. Both beaches have bars and restaurants and sun canopies for hire.
Golf
The first tee of the famous Penina golf course is just beyond the poolside lawn, but it is mostly hidden by trees and the boundary is fenced. Then there are several more courses within a 30 minute drive, Palmares and Bela Vista to the west, Morgado to the north and those at Carvoeiro to the east.
Travel
Faro is the nearest airport (50 minute drive along the A22 motorway). Some people fly into Lisbon and spend a few days there as part of their holiday, driving down to the Algarve takes 2.5 - 3 hours. A car is essential at this villa.
Distances
Market and fishing port of Portimao 6kms. Alvor resort and fishing village 4kms. Lagos market historic town 12kms. The hills on Monchique (with Pir-piri chicken restaurants!) and top most peak of Foia are a pleasant 45 minute drive; the Castle at Silves the same. The west coast beaches and westerly point of Cape St Vincent, near Sagres make a different day out.
Further details
There are 2 stores/hypermarkets within 5 minutes drive of the villa. There are banks and chemists in Portimao, Alvor or Lagos and even in the small, more local town of Mexilhoeira Grande, which is only a 5 minute drive. Fishing and coastal sightseeing boat trips may be arranged along the quay front in Portimao.
Booking notes
