A Casa Da Fazenda

A Casa Da Fazenda: Algarve

Nestled within a Mediterranean garden, this farmhouse in Albufeira is a great base for families. While the decor is a little dated and not to everyone’s taste, this single-level villa has authentic charm and is accessible to those with limited mobility. The large terrace and swimming pool lined with traditional thatched sun umbrellas certainly offer holiday vibes. And where better to enjoy an alfresco family meal cooked on the barbecue than under the shaded dining area? For those looking to explore the coastline, Castello and Evaristo beaches in Gale are both within walking distance – as are restaurants and shops.

Home truths:
*This is a single-level villa and may be suitable for guests with reduced mobility – please note there is one step down to the garden, and the pool has Roman steps to enter
*Your host can provide a complimentary cot and high chair – this must be requested at the time of booking, and you’ll need to bring your own cot linen
*The swimming pool isn't fenced, so children will need to be supervised at all times
*Hen and stag parties are not allowed at this home
*There isn't a desk here, but the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace
*Due to the location of this home, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay – there’s free off-road parking available
*If you're travelling by plane, Faro Airport is 46km away
