A majestic white exterior stands strikingly against the piercing blue skies of the Algarve, ready to welcome you into its stunning interiors! The entrance itself is appropriately grand, with a charming, typically Portuguese style of architecture. An array of cosy and airy living spaces welcomes you, all in a fantastically traditional design of wood, natural textures and colours. There are three fantastic lounges, including a superb, sophisticated room on the main floor and a second more casual one on the first floor. The majestic kitchen is sleek, stylish and simply a joy to use, whether for preparing light snacks, treats or full feasts, and is connected in an elegant open-plan design with the main living room and a dining area – all with access to the garden! You will find the first two double bedrooms on this ground floor, each with a sparkling ensuite shower room.

There’s also a second king-size bedroom on this floor, also with a separate dressing area, a TV, terrace and its own ensuite bathroom. The final room, ideal for the kids or simply bringing along as many friends as possible, is the triple room on the lower-ground floor, right alongside the sauna and a shower room! All five accompanying bathrooms are dazzling with marble, pretty tiles and top-of-the-range facilities. For the most idyllic sunbathing spot, head out into your fabulous garden where a spacious terrace, large lawn and of course this exquisite pool await you!

The Algarve, the southernmost region of Portugal, is famous for its picturesque scenes of vast blue skies casting a warming glow on the expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, with untouched bays framed by jagged limestone rocks at every turn. While the southern coast caters to every need of its visitors, to the West and the rugged interior the land remains largely untouched, with less development and endless intersecting of historic villages, hilltop castles and beautiful churches. The Algarviana hiking trail is an excellent day out for an active group. The sumptuous Algarve coast is the ideal spot for enjoying all kinds of water sports including: surfing, water skiing, windsurfing, sailing, diving, deep-sea fishing and anything you can think of! The incredible golf courses of San Lorenzo and Vale do Lobo are within an extremely short drive, and in addition, you will find a water park, tennis courts and horse riding all in the local area! Even for those less enamoured with water sports, the beaches of Portugal are well worth a visit for their beautifully clear waters and meticulously combed golden sands. Portugal itself is a small, fascinating country at the most Western point of mainland Europe. The capital, Lisbon, is known for its lively nightlife, with endless bars and clubs full of fun-loving locals and tourists alike, but also has plenty of fascinating history (check out Belém, jam-packed with monuments!) and undulating terrain, famously termed the ‘city of the seven hills’. Finally, Faro Airport is only a couple of minutes away, so you’ll waste no time at all getting to your destination and getting stuck in!
