Approached through woodland,nestling in a valley with stunning views of foothills and coast, the house is bursting with charm. Retaining many of its original features. Carefully restored and enjoyed by the owners over 25 years. The house is surrounded by farmland; 5 kms from the small town of Monchique with shops, restaurants, bars and market.
South coast beaches, water sports, golf and tennis, are within 35 minutes drive, while the 45 minute drive to the west coast offers an exciting alternative with its rugged wild coastline and national park. The famous spa at Caldas de Monchique is 20 minutes away, for health and beauty treatments - or we can arrange for a masseuse to come to the house. There is everything here for the complete healthy holiday; organic food almost impossible to avoid, water from our underground spring. No light at night in the valley apart from the moon and the stars, and no sound but the wildlife.
The main bedrooms are on the first floor. Bedroon 1 has a roof terrace with steps to the garden. There are views to the coast and foothills. Next door is a spacious bathroom The gallery has a lounging area, books and games. The second bedroom is a large room with twin beds and views to the coast and pool.
On the ground floor There is a large and cosy sitting room with open fire and a snug/bedroom. A well equiped farmhousekitchen with a dinning area and a door to the terrace. There is a shower room and tolet and utility room.
Our maid comes to the house 3 times a week to clean. the poolman once a week. We have English speaking agents in the town, who will make sure you have everything you need.
The house is very popular with honeymooners and families. The pool is reached by a narrow path so it is easier to monitor access. 'Best holiday anywhere, ever' and 'Died and gone to heaven' just two comments from the guestbook.
