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.

    Had a wonderful time in the cottage! The cottage is completely complete in terms of luxury and furnishings. All the necessities are present. Even when it rains it is nice to stay in the spacious cottage itself. During my stay the owners were in their own house on the property, but because there are trees and bushes between the two houses I experienced complete privacy. The view from both the "backyard" and the "front yard" of the cottage is beautiful! Lovely to stay with coffee, wine or a beer and enjoy the view from the mountain. Contact with the owner was very smooth and friendly, both in advance and during the stay. They are always willing to give handy and fun tips. Definitely recommended and for me to go back again!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    For those who is looking for tranquility, this is the ideal place! In a beautiful setting with cork trees. Only the sounds of birds and barking dogs in the distance. And yet close to Monichique so you can walk straight into town from the tranquility.

    We had an excellent stay in this house in Monchique. Far from the mass tourism of Albufeira and Lagos, we enjoyed a beautifully appointed house in harmony with nature, far from the noise of the city. To all lovers of slow living, calm and rest, I highly recommend it!

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.

After each stay, we invite our guests to rate the nature house, the surroundings, and specific activities. An activity is only shown at a nature house if it meets two conditions: at least 20 unique reviews have been given, and at least 60% of guests gave a score of ‘amazing’ (3/4) or ‘wow’ (4/4).
