The Algarve / West Algarve region

The beach in Burgau is only 4 minutes walk down the hill. The Beachbar is highly recommended for lunch or dinner and they rent sunloungers and shaded palms. There is another beach about 1 km out a country/national park road/ track which is lovely to walk to and gather the flowers and observe the wildlife as you go.

Boavista golf, the impressive 18 hold championship golf course, with spectacular scenery of views of Lagos bay and Monchique Mountains is only 3-4 km east.
Parque da Floresta 18 hole championship golf course, with breathtaking views over the National park is only 4-5 km west.
Palmares overlooks Lagos and Penina is only a short drive away (20 mins) to the east of Lagos. Many other golf courses thoughout the Central and Eastern Algarve are within an hours drive on the motorway.


Lagos / Burgau area

There are shops, supermarkets, restaurants and pubs in the village of Burgau. The Burgau sports centre has an indoor pool, tennis court, playground and other activities for adults and children.
There is an ATM in the village and many others in Lagos.

There are more restaurants, shops, pharmacy etc in Luz. LUZDOC provide a 24 hour medical service in Luz with English speaking doctors who are highly qualified and efficient. There are excellent hospitals in Lagos. Many medicines that normally need prescriptions at home are over the counter in Portugal and most pharmacists speak very good English and are helpful. Lagos has hundreds of restaurants so you are spoilt for choice. If you are feeling very ambitious you can always go to the market in Lagos and pick out your own fresh fish for the grill. However, any of the 3 main supermarkets in Lagos provide a huge array of fish and meat. Most have English cheddar at the counter and delicious ham for a quick lunch.


How to get there

There are cheap flights from most UK airports to Faro airport. Check with your local airport for www.easyjet.com, www.ryanair.com and other budget airlines. The villa is just 55 mins drive from Faro mainly on the motorway A22 so it makes for an easy journey.

Airport transfers can be arranged but it is ideal to rent a car to enjoy the other lovely beaches and national parkland locally. There is both a bus and rail service from Faro to Lagos and then a local bus service that goes to Burgau.

We normally find www.luzcar.com the cheapest and most convenient for car rental.

It is possible to fly into Seville airport with a journey time of 2 hours and 30 minutes. Journey time from Lisbon airport is just over 3 hours.
