About the home

The property is entered through wooden doors onto the downstairs courtyard, and then into the house via stable type doors into the spacious kitchen / dining room. On the ground floor are also the two bedrooms and the bathroom. An open staircase leads up to the large living room, which has French windows leading out to the covered terrace. The village of Figueira is very quiet, ideal for a getting away from it all holiday, yet there is a large golf and leisure resort five minutes away, and the beautiful beaches of the Algarve west coast are a short drive away.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
The house is spacious and airy, with high ceilings, and the thick walls mean that the property stays cool in the heat of the summer. All the fixture and fittings are brand new this season. There is three way air conditioning in the main bedroom and the living room. The second bedroom is a twin but there is a z-bed if necessary, also a cot. There is a small sitting area in the kitchen in addition to the main living room upstairs. The bathroom has a bath and with a shower screen. The water is heated by a solar water panel, and with the abundance of sunshine in the area there is always plenty of hot water.

Further details outdoors:
The courtyard has an external staircase leading up to the upstairs terrace, and is equipped with a charcoal barbecue, table and chairs and an umbrella. Upstairs the covered terrace leading off the living room has seating for four and a small table. Although in the heart of the village the house is completely private, as the courtyard is surrounded by a high wall.

Further details

We meet all clients on arrival, and show them in, hand over keys etc. We also put a food pack in the house, ie milk, water, wine, bread, eggs etc. There are also basics in the house, detergent for all the machines, salt, pepper, oil, and so on, and when we have any we put in fruit and veg from our own garden.

Conditions

I need to know what time the clients expect to arrive in Figueira so I can be there to meet them, so ask people to phone me on my mobile with at least thirty minutes' notice.

The Algarve / West Algarve region

The Western Algarve is well known for the beauty of its beaches, and is now becoming a hot spot for surfing enthusiasts. The town of Sagres is known as "The End of the World", and is famous as the site of Henry the Navigator's marine base and school. Figueira is in an area designated as a national park, and developments are highly controlled so as not to conflict with the natural beauty of the area. Many of the coastal villages were fishing communities and still offer superb fresh fish straight off the boats. The nearest big town is Lagos, which is a thriving town about twenty minutes' drive to the east. There you will find a good choice of restaurants and a lively night life.

The Figueira area

Figueira is a sleepy village, benefitting from being bypassed by the main road which runs east to west. However, there are several small restaurants in the village and a couple of corner shops selling the basics. There is also a fish van selling fresh fish most days. Figueira beach is charming, to get there entails a two minute drive followed by a ten minute walk down a country track. The nearest village on the coast is Salema, five minutes by car. This has several excellent restaurants and an attractive beach. Just up the road from Figueira is Parque da Floresta Golf and Leisure resort, which has a big outdoor pool, spa, children's playground and many other facilities that may be used by the public for a small fee.
