5/5

This nature house is an original Portuguese farmhouse that has been fully restored. Its authentic character has been preserved as much as possible, and the vacation home exudes tranquility and romance. This cozy nature house features 4 bedrooms that can accommodate up to 8 people. There are 2 bathrooms and a simple yet practical kitchen equipped with all modern conveniences. The cozy living room features a sitting area, a dining area, and a cozy wood stove. Upstairs, on the mezzanine, there is a separate sitting area with a television. The private pool can be heated upon request, is open year-round, and is a wonderful place to relax while enjoying a good book and a glass of juice or Portuguese wine.  This is a home with a soul. And you don’t just see it—you experience it, too.

Nature and surroundings

The house is located in the Algarve’s hinterland, in the green hills of the Serra de Monchique. The valley is called Ribeira das Canas and lies between Portimão and Monchique. This nature house is a wonderful vacation home for families and travelers who love peace, space, and privacy.  Outside, you’ll enjoy views of the breathtakingly green surroundings of the protected nature reserve. We also have Buddy, our big black dog, living with us. Buddy is really very sweet, calm, and friendly, and he loves to come out and greet new guests. Although the property is fenced, he sometimes still finds his way to the guesthouse. It’s therefore important that our guests feel comfortable around a large dog. Buddy has a very gentle nature. Would you like a relaxing vacation in the Algarve where you’re just a short distance from the tourist attractions but stay in a quiet paradise surrounded by nature? Then come stay at this nature house in the Monchique Mountains!

    The owners take wonderful care of the house and their guests; Jeff and Caroline are incredibly kind people. Nothing is too much trouble, and they’re always there to help. The quality of the house itself is also top-notch.

    The peace and quiet, the open space, and the natural surroundings near the house were wonderful!

    A particularly beautiful cottage in a beautiful setting. All the comfort needed to make it a nice vacation. A fantastic reception by Caroline and Jef. We could enjoy the cottage in all privacy, but if there was something so immediately ready to solve everything. Highly recommended

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The middle of nowhere, that is the best description. Blissfully still and quiet only the chirping of the birds and the croaking of the frogs
