About the home

Casa do Francisco is a comfortable spacious 3 bedroom villa, with a private secluded pool. Wide uninterrupted countryside views reach down to the sea. The surrounding acres have only ancient olive and carob trees which provide a wonderful green vista, and invite long walks from the villa. The tranquil, quiet location makes Casa do Francisco an ideal retreat for a peaceful relaxing holiday.

And, the villa is within just 10-15 mins drive of golden sandy Beaches, nature Reserves, golf courses, and the pretty riverside town of Tavira, with its many excellent restaurants, historic palaces, craft shops, and coffee bars where you can just sit and watch the world go by.

There is a traditional Portuguese bar/cafe within walking distance of Casa do Francisco, and two typical villages provide nearby supermarkets, pharmacy, bank, post office, cafes and good restaurants, within 3 mins drive. This is an excellent location for exploring the area, or simply relaxing.

GUESTBOOK QUOTES for CASA do FRANCISCO:
Very comfortable and relaxing villa. The BBQ and outside eating area are a big plus, and add to the attractiveness. Good standard of furnishing throughout the house, and excellent kitchen utensils/ fitments. Spotlessly clean.

Location is a bonus with easy trips to Faro and Tavira, both with lots of history and eating places.
The views are also something to highlight, with great sunrises and sunsets.

It lived up to our expectations and would strongly recommend it.
