If
you are looking for a modern, beautifully finished Villa near to a popular
resort seething with discos and tourists, then Quinta da Musica is not for
you. If however you feel that you need to get away from a busy lifestyle
to enjoy a retreat of complete peace and tranquillity, where the only
sound may be the call of a wild bird, then this is the place.
Quinta da Musica is a charming, rustic dwelling typical of the style in
Southern Portugal around 200 years ago. It has been lovingly renovated and
is situated in rolling countryside with a panoramic view from the top of
the villa grounds.
The pool is
situated in pasture and woodland at the back of the house. There is a
BBQ next to the pool area where you might like to try grilling fresh
sardines Algarve style.
The village of
Santa Catarina is 4km away where you will find simple amenities such as
Bank, Post Office, some shops and cafes and a restaurant serving typical
Portuguese food.
The nearest beach
(Tavira) is 12km away but from Santa Catarina there is ample opportunity
to explore the Algarve’s varied attractions.
SPECIAL NOTES
For the period July 15th. to
August 31st. this villa has 3 extra bedrooms and the price is an extra
£200 per. week.
There is a shared kitchen so it should be just one group.
