Life is Sweet

Life is Sweet: Faro

Near the popular resort town of Albufeira and its sandy coastline, this traditional villa is perfect for a laid-back stay spent relaxing with friends and family. The natural stone facade, turrets and grand pillars make a bold first impression, but it's the outside space that's the real standout here. From your private pool and manicured garden to the brick-built barbecue for dining out on the shaded terrace, it's certainly not lacking in outside living areas. Plus, you've got a ping-pong table for the kids and a sunny rooftop balcony with far-reaching views. Location-wise, a short drive will take you to Praia do Castelo, while the charming village of Gale is nearby for evenings out.

Home truths:
*Due to the location of this home, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay – there's private parking available here
*This villa is spread over multiple floors with no internal lift, so it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*The interiors are typical of a traditional villa, so those looking for a more luxurious stay may want to look elsewhere in our collection
*The swimming pool isn't fenced, so children will need to be supervised at all times
