Welcome to this spacious 20m2 B&B room with private entrance, large bathroom with rain shower and a charming patio with several seating areas. Via stairs through the fig trees, you reach the plunge pool with large garden surrounding it. From here you have a breathtaking view to the south coast. The plunge pool is for the exclusive use of guests of the room. The location is idyllic in the mountains of Monchique in the Algarve on a 3 ha property. The owners' 2 dogs and 7 cats like to come and socialize. In 10 minutes you are, by car, in the village of Monchique, the supermarket or one of the many restaurants. The room has a refrigerator, kettle and Delta Cups coffee machine. From summer until autumn the fruit trees are full of plums, apples, pears, figs and grapes. Full breakfast is included and served on the patio or in the room itself. Towels and linens are included and for longer stays we provide an in-between cleaning.
Nature and surroundings
For hikers and peace seekers! This nature house is located at 700 meters altitude in the middle of the Serra de Monchique on Mount Fóia. At 902 meters, this is the highest mountain in the Algarve. From your accommodation you can easily explore the surrounding mountain area. The property is located directly on the Via Algarviana, a long-distance hiking trail that runs from the east to the west of the Algarve. In addition to one of the marked circular walks, you can walk a stage of this route and we will pick you up at the end point. It is also a popular area for cyclists and mountain bikers can choose from about 2 spectacular downhill routes. The south coast with beaches like Praia d'Alvor or Praia da Rocha can be reached within 45 minutes and to the west coast with its jagged cliffs and laid-back surf and beach culture you are an hour away. Beautiful towns like Silves, Lagos and Ferragudo are well worth a visit. To get to us & take trips, a car is highly recommended.

Everything was up and running, no comments. For the next visit I would like to book it again with Gitta. Thank you so much!
Alles was op en top, geen opmerkingen. Voor de volgende bezoek zou ik het weer graag bij Gitta willen boeken. Heel erg dank!
Nature, peace & environment:The last few minutes to the cottage you drive up a quiet gravel road, only to be warmly greeted immediately upon arrival by hostess Gitta. We felt right at home because of her genuine kindness and attention.
Our room was spacious, stylish and equipped with a luxurious bathroom and a wonderfully comfortable bed - a stay with real hotel allure. From the room you walk straight into the beautifully landscaped garden, full of cozy sitting areas, where even a plunge pool awaits for cooling on hot days. Occasionally a sweet cat, dog, chicken or even a hedgehog pass by for a brief greeting.
Breakfast was a feast: fresh, local, prepared with care, super extensive and even fully adapted a delicious vegan diet especially for us.
The location is perfect: quiet, yet close to culture, beaches and activities. Thanks to Gitta's attention to detail, warm welcome and perfect service, we were completely at peace. A place to cherish and definitely return to.De laatste minuten naar het huisje rijd je over een rustige grindweg omhoog, om bij aankomst meteen hartelijk te worden begroet door gastvrouw Gitta. We voelden ons direct thuis door haar oprechte vriendelijkheid en aandacht.
Onze kamer was ruim, stijlvol en voorzien van een luxe badkamer en een heerlijk comfortabel bed – een verblijf met echte hotelallure. Vanuit de kamer loop je zo de prachtig aangelegde tuin in, vol sfeervolle zitplekjes, waar zelfs een dompelbad wacht voor verkoeling op warme dagen. Af en toe komen een lieve kat, hond, kip of zelfs een egeltje voorbij voor een korte groet.
Het ontbijt was een feest: vers, lokaal, met zorg bereid, super uitgebreid en zelfs speciaal voor ons volledig aangepast een heerlijke vegan dieet.
De ligging is perfect: rustig, maar toch dichtbij cultuur, stranden en activiteiten. Dankzij Gitta’s oog voor detail, warme ontvangst en perfecte service zijn we volledig tot rust gekomen. Een plek om te koesteren en zeker naar terug te keren.This text is automatically translated. -

We had a great time here! The room and bathroom were large. Private patio where breakfast was lovingly served every morning. Nice places to sit and a private plunge pool. Gitta and Sam were very friendly and relaxed. Gave great tips for things to do nearby. For us it was perfect.
We hebben het hier heel fijn gehad! De kamer en badkamer waren groot. Eigen patio waar het ontbijt met veel liefde elke ochtend werd geserveerd. Leuke plekjes om te zitten en een eigen dompelbad. Gitta en Sam waren heel vriendelijk en relaxed. Gaven leuke tips voor dingen om te doen in de buurt. Voor ons was het perfect.
Nature, peace & environment:Lovely place, with lots of private. Several places where you can enjoy the surroundings, and a lot of walks that can be done right from the house. Lots of greenery, fruit trees on the property, everything is maintained with great care.
Heerlijke plek, met veel privé. Verschillende plekjes waar je kan genieten van de omgeving, en een heel aantal wandelingen die te doen zijn direct vanaf het huis. Veel groen, fruitbomen op het terrein, alles wordt met veel zorg onderhouden.
