In Portugal, in the Algarve, Pretty Villa in Monchique, With Private Pool,

Superb country house with lots of charm and character, located in a unique, secluded and peaceful location, with magnificent views, of the ocean and the mountains, a short distance from the town center.
She is composed:
A living room, a wood stove, a large kitchen, 1 double bedroom (air-conditioned bedroom) with 1 adjoining bathroom and 1 toilet.
This villa and its swimming pool are nestled in a wooded park where all the essences of trees and shrubs of the ALGARVE flourish.
In his garden rub shoulders with rare roses, agaves and fruit trees.
At 460 m above sea level, the town of Monchique offers the spectacle of the sea, the freshness of crystal-clear rivers running down the rocks, orchards and market garden crops on the terrace.

nice guesthouse in Monchique
A very nice guesthouse near Monchique and very quiet. Also very good for the winter saison (fireplace!) Big garden area with orange trees. Big pool, unfortunatly too cold für us in December. If you want to hide from tourist places at the south coast, that´s a nice compromise in the mountains.

Delightful Month in the Most Lovely Part of the Algarve!
We had the pleasure of staying more than a month at this charming villa! Aside from the very pleasing design, this comfortable and well equipped house (there are actually 3 separate sleeping areas ), we loved having a working fireplace, and a well-fenced garden for our little dog. The garden is gorgeous with large citrus trees (help yourself!), lush flowering plants and plenty of outdoor places to sit. For some the large swimming pool might be the focus ~ it's very inviting ~ unfortunately the weather did not permit us to use it. We definitely appreciated meeting our exceptional hosts Pascal and Marie, and Eulalia (whose help was enormously valuable to us). Rent with confidence ~ you're going to LOVE this place!

A Gem In Monchique
Just concluded 7 nights at your property and absolutely loved it. The property provided all the lovely comforts of home along with a beautiful pool and landscaping that excites us daily. We felt spoiled with all the space and privacy. Monchique is such a charming town isolated town yet 30 minutes away from the action of Portimao and Lagos. Our hostess Eulália warmly welcomed us and set us up with the property and town. We are looking for excuses to visit again soon.

Even better than the description!
This is a quirky house with lots of personality. Beautifully decorated, cozy and comfortable. The bright sunny kitchen is well out-fitted with all the conveniences of home. Direct access to the patio dining area was a bonus! Livingroom, dining room, kitchen and bathroom are all quite large. The bedroom is small but more than adequate. Outdoors, the gardens, pool, sitting areas (many), and the surrounding property are sublime. It is the perfect place to relax. We really enjoyed picking fruit right from the tree. Fresh oranges for breakfast are a real treat! The property is situated in a perfect location. Easy walking distance to Monchique (1km) Several nice walking trails right from the property. Fabulous views with not a neighbor in sight. Several good restaurants located within a 5-10min walk. We'd like to thank, both the property manager and the owner for making our stay PERFECT! I really hope that we can come back for another visit sometime soon!

Monchique Villa Oct/Nov
Despite our late arrival (after midnight), we were welcomed by the property manager Eulália, who met us at the local supermarket and shown us the way to the villa and gave us a thorough guide to the property. The villa itself was lovely with everything you need for your stay. The surrounding garden was beautiful with stunning views of the valley below and neighbouring hillsides. I can imagine the private pool being an absolute godsend in the summer months, but could have been a little warmer for our autumn visit (I myself swam in it most days - took a couple of minutes to get used to the cool water - very refreshing all the same). The log burner was great to have for the evening time and there's an unlimited amount of wood available, supplied by the owner. to the location and the terrain, hiring a car an absolute necessity when staying at this villa. Monchique is a five minute journey and the nearby towns + the south and west coastlines are relatively closeby, no longer than an hour's drive. We even drove to and from Lisbon for a day trip, but I'd recommend using the A22 and A2 toll roads rather than the road from Monchique leading in a north easterly direction (very winding- so not good for travel sickness). Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend staying in this villa.

Paradise
We stayed late May24 and found the villa to be fabulous. The pictures don't do the place justice at all. The gardens and surrounding area are stunning. Mature planting with orange and lemon trees. The pool is a great size with stunning view down to Monchique. Weather was in the mid to late 20's but we still opted for the heated pool which was great. A couple of nights the temperature dropped quite quickly so would advise some hoodies etc. The villa is well equipped and spacious for a small family. There are two bedroom areas both with doubles. There is also a pull out bed in the living area. The kitchen is well propotioned and has all the essentials.wifi is ok but patchy by the pool. Outside has several eating areas with a gas bbq. The owner and agent were both welcoming and responsive. There are a suprising amount of restaurants locally with at least 4 in walking distance (age depending). The town is a short drive and has a large supermarket and a limited amount of bars/restaurants and shops.A magical place for a relaxing week. Some constructive critique is that the furnishings and linen could do with being replaced. Also a welcome pack with guide on how things work at the villa would have been welcomed. Mosquitos are prominent so would advise taking or buying solutions. A hire car is essential if you want to see any of the surrounding area. Monchique itself is walkable but wouldn't advise with shopping etc. Overall we couldn't fault it and hope to return in the future.

Kleines Paradies in den Bergen
SchönesHäuschen inmitten eines riesigem Terrassengrundstücks mit alten Olivenbäumen und Korkeichen. Tolle Aussicht, schöner beheizter Pool, Granatäpfel frisch vom Baum… Ausstattung war auch super, alles da bis auf scharfe Messer… tolle Lage, direkt am Ortsrand aber trotzdem in der Natur, sogar Meerblick vom Garten aus. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und sind etwas traurig dass die Zeit dort vorbei ist.

Perfect for a quiet holiday with choice of local restaurants and lovely walks.
This is such a lovely place. Peaceful and relaxing with a great pool and fabulous mature but well kept garden. The house has everything you need and is spotlessly clean and larger than the pictures suggest. Several of the local restaurants are just a walk away and the town has a relaxed vibe and is certainly not ‘touristy’. Being able to go for walks from the doorstep into the hills around us was fantastic. Pascal and Eulália were lovely hosts and extremely helpful. Would definitely return here.

Can’t wait to return
Me and my girlfriend stayed here at the end of our portgual break to wind down after being by the busier towns and coast, my only regret is that we didn’t book for longer. The hosts couldn’t be more accommodating, fast responses to any questions I had. The villa is fully equipped with everything you may need. It really is a beautiful villa, very spacious and as for the pool…. big, clean, the views were amazing, we could have easily hung out here for two weeks! We will 100% return and recommend to anyone we know visiting Portugal.
