The Algarve / Central Algarve region
The Algarve is the name of the southern coast of Portugal, incorporating, amongst others, the towns of Faro, Lagos, and Sagres. The region's administrative centre is the town of Faro, which has its own international airport.
The Algarve is a popular destination for tourism, primarily because of its clean, warm water beaches, Mediterranean climate, safety and relatively low costs. The length of the south-facing coastline is approximately 155 kilometres. Beyond the westernmost point of Cape St Vincent it stretches a further 50 kilometres to the north. The coastline is notable for picturesque limestone caves and grottoes, particularly around Lagos, which are accessible by powerboat.
Praia da Marinha, Lagoa was classified as one of the 100 most beautiful and well preserved beaches of the world. There are many other beautiful and famous summer places such as Albufeira, Vilamoura, Portimão, Lagos, Armação de Pêra, Quarteira, Monte Gordo and Tavira.
Ferragudo area
Carvoeiro is a fishing village halfway along the Algarve coast, about 45 minutes from Faro Airport. Over the last 15 years, grown to be a sizeable holiday resort. However, it has not lost the intrinsic charm of the place, as the development has been sympathetically done, keeping to low-rise buildings in the traditional Algarvian style.
This cosmopolitan resort has a wide selection of restaurants and bars, a few night clubs, boutiques, banks, chemist and local facilities.

Wine Tasting & Ancient Well & Animal Farm: Wine Tasting Room: Our new wine tasting area ( Sala de Prova) in the old Wine Adega is now completed. Here we offer to our house guests but also to outside visitors at selected times wine tastings. You are welcomed at the entrance of the Sala de Prova by Bacchus, the god of wine. This nearly 2 m high sculpture has been created already around the year 1650. Ancient Well; Our large and ancient property has many historically interesting places. One of the most interesting is the 40 m deep ancient well, accessible by a staircase which was carved by our ancestors by hand through soil and stone. Around 80 steep steps lead down to the water level. As the old people say, it well may have been discovered by the invading Moors. Animals: The term unspoiled nature is the best description for the nearly 100.000 sqm where we allow the animals to live without interference from us. Large groups of deer and many other type of wildlife use this area peaceful together.
Fruits: Fruits: The year starts with the harvest of oranges and lemons which normally lasts until March. These trees blossom and produce fruit at the same time and the fabulous scent fills the air for much of the early part of the year. February until the end of spring is the best time to enjoy the flowering of the almond trees. In some areas of the Algarve its white and pink blossom shines like snow. In May the first figs are becoming delicious and plums and apricots can be enjoyed from June to September. You are welcome to pick some of these fruits for yourselves. If you would like to take some of them home what better than our delicious marmalade or chutney? See what we have available in our small farm shop. Grape picking is carried out by hand and normally starting in the middle of August and lasting for 3-4 weeks. At selected times we allow our house guests to participate in the harvesting and to view the entire wine making process.
Conditions
Golf information packages and pre bookings can be arranged at our local courses Pinta, Gramacho, Alto and Salgados golf. The Algarve is one of Europe's premier golf areas. There are currently 25 courses in the space of 100 miles of coastline, with more under construction. All Algarve courses are within one and a half hours drive of Faro International Airport. Over the last few years the Portuguese Open has been hosted variously at Penina, Vila Sol and São Lourenzo, all of which may be included in the list of top European championship courses. Warm playing conditions and immaculately manicured fairways and greens are the norm in the Algarve. We can send you a price list of the courses and availability to coincide with your holiday.
