A charming white-washed house with a pool & lovely hillside views from the terrace: sleep out here under a star-studded sky on warm evenings

Tucked up a small lane, this traditional Portuguese home, half an hour north of Faro, is delightful. Away from the busy south coast you can get a proper taste of Portuguese country living: pop into the nearby market town of São Brás for a pastel de nata, buy fresh produce at the daily food market, visit the museum to learn all about the cork industry.

Return to cook a delicious meal and eat on the plant-filled shady terrace, just off the neat kitchen. Up a level, the rooftop terrace has mesmerising hillside views, watch spectacular sunsets here and sleep on a comfy double bed as the stars begin to bristle. There's a fenced pool too, down more steps, and the entire garden is peaceful and filled with the sounds of birdlife.

Inside, en suite bedrooms branch off the kitchen and living room, there's one double and one twin/double. Hang out in the cosy living room, it has a burner for chilly evenings, smart TV and WiFi.

Punti d'interesse locali da
Kate Ferguson:

  • Have a sundowner on our roof terrace or even sleep under the stars. The views are breathtaking.
  • Visit Loule with its daily covered market - perfect for fresh fish, seafood and local produce. Loule comes alive on Saturdays when the farmers bring their produce to sell.
  • Your nearest beach is Fusetta - take a boat the islands to enjoy a Robinson Crusoe experience. There are numerous sandy beaches on your doorstep.
  • Porches Pottery is an absolute must - see the workers hand painting their pottery. Have a look at the "seconds" for bargains!
  • There is a lovely restaurant bar and restaurant just a 10 minute walk from The Cottage
  • You can even drive to the Spanish border and cross over in the little ferry from Vila Real de Santo Antonio to Ayamonte. Enjoy an authentic paella and then back to Portugal for a Pasteis de Nata!
