The nearest accessible beaches are about a 5 minute drive. To the north is Monte Clerigo, a very wide sandy beach, and to the south is Arrifana with it spectacular cliffs, small harbour and fishing vessels. Both beaches have lifeguards during the summer period and the villages have restaurants and bars. There are many other fantastic beaches eg. Amoreira, Carriagem and Bordeira slightly further away.
The nearest supermarket and restaurant/café are 2 kilometres. Tennis, walking, bird watching, fishing, horse riding, golf and surfing all within easy access.
It is 8 kilometres from the picturesque market town of Aljezur with its castle, museums, shops, post office, banks, bars, restaurants and old fashioned food market.
The large town of Lagos with its marina and many other attractions is 30 km away.
The nearest airport is Faro. It takes one hour thirty minutes by car, mainly along a motorway. Car hire is essential but taxis can be arranged for about 80 euros each way.
Smoking is not permitted in the property.
