Nature house in Monchique
Algarve, Portugal
- 4 persons

This brand new cottage was built from a ruin in 2024. Located in the middle of nature, but equipped with all modern amenities, the house - along with a second cottage - on the grounds of almost one hectare, forms an oasis of peace in the Algarve. The nearest neighbors can be found at 100 meters. The cottage has two bedrooms, both with their own bathroom and toilet. The spacious bright living room/kitchen gives a beautiful view of the valley and Mount Picota. The loft offers space to chill for any children traveling with you. The cottage is of course equipped with WIFI and has a size of about 90m2. Outside around the cottage you will find many terraces, each with its own function. Feel free to pick some fruit or vegetables, or relax in one of the many secret sitting areas with chairs or hammocks that you can discover around the house. Swimming pool: in the summer months June-Sept a round (5m / 1.22m) set-up pool is available, to be used privately on request.
Nature and surroundings
Monchique was already discovered and visited by the Romans for its nature, and in particular the healing waters that flow richly from the mountain. The mountain Foia, with over 900 meters the highest point of the Algarve, offers endless hiking and cycling possibilities, paved and unpaved. so racing cyclists can indulge themselves, but also on the MTB or E-MTB you can entertain yourself for days. Casa DeSa is located at 450 meters altitude, 5 minutes from the town of Monchique that offers restaurants, cafes, stores and a supermarket. Still want to get into the hustle and bustle? Monchique is a 25-minute drive from the south coast of the Algarve with endless beaches and fun beach clubs in Portimão and Lagos. Or visit one of the many golf courses. You can also reach the much rougher west coast in less than half an hour, with long empty beaches and small villages perhaps more beautiful than the beaches of Portimão and Lagos.

The cottage is fully equipped and very comfortably and beautifully furnished. It was really nice that we were allowed to pick fruits and vegetables from the garden (tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, lemons). The cool nights were also wonderful, and we enjoyed some beautiful starry skies. Finally, the owners were very helpful whenever we had a question. We highly recommend spending your vacation here!
Het huisje is van alle gemakken voorzien en heel fijn en mooi ingericht. Het was heel leuk dat we de groenten en het fruit uit de tuin mochten plukken (tomaten, komkommers, courgette, citroenen). Ook de koele nachten zijn heerlijk met een paar keer prachtige sterrenhemels. Ten slotte was het contact met de eigenaren heel fijn toen we een vraag hadden. Echt een aanrader om de vakantie door te brengen!
The cottage is beautifully situated on a hill, and as you drive up the last stretch, you’ll have a view of the coast and can see towns like Portimão and Lagos below. The cottage is surrounded by a lovely, spacious garden with plenty of spots to sit and relax.
Het huisje ligt prachtig op een heuvel en als je het laatste stukje naar boven rijdt heb je uitzicht op de kust en zie je steden als Portimao en Lagos liggen. Om het huisje ligt een hele mooie ruime tuin met veel plekjes om te zitten en te relaxen.

The place is lovely, with a beautiful garden with now a stream of water from the mountains that ripples so nicely at night sleeping with a chorus of frogs in the background.Very nice
De plek is heerlijk, met een prachtige tuin met nu nog een waterstroompje vanuit de bergen dat zo lekker kabbelt
