Property Description

Not just a pretty face, this Portuguese villa is within walking distance of quaint shops and authentic restaurants, ideal for sun-drenched days of exploration – as is the beach a short drive away. Though the classic tiles and decor might not be to everyone's taste, the outdoors is where this home truly shines and the reason for its appearance in our collection. With a generous stretch of land surrounding a private pool with plenty of seating, the kids can keep them busy whilst the grown-ups bask in the sunshine – and the stone-built barbecue is a nice bonus for alfresco dining.

*The swimming pool isn't fenced, so children will need to be supervised at all times
