Property information

Our guesthouse in Algarve was an old farmhouse dating back to 1870, surrounded by 4 hectares of land and named after our best friends: our cats (Quinta do Gato Preto literally means “House of the Black Cat”). Four years ago, its current owners began the enjoyable task of patiently and lovingly restoring their house into a home open to everyone. Now it’s a small bed and breakfast in Algarve, where visitors in search of a peaceful corner away from the coast hustle and bustle can share the beautiful scenery. The warm and professional welcome you receive, together with a friendly atmosphere, will make you feel at home straightaway. Our guesthouse is the perfect location for your Algarve holidays. Directly in your room and just for our guests, you will find several Brochures and Guides of the best things to do in the Algarve, from hidden beaches to panoramic restaurant nestled in the mountain of Monchique. On request, a picnic hampers and light lunches to take away are available every day, coupled with a comfortable refrigerated backpack.

Neighbourhood information

Gato Preto de Silves is located about 40 min from Faro Airport, in the center of Algarve.

Marinha Beach and the ‘7 Hanging Valleys’ path is only 15 km from Gato Preto de Silves - Adults Only, while Carvoeiro, Lagoa, Portimão and Alvor nightlife are close by in less than 25 minutes. Our rural retreat, set on a south facing hillside overlooking an orange grove valley, offers exclusive accommodation for travelers in Algarve, looking for a peaceful spot within easy reach of the sea and surrounded by the scents and colors that pervade this region all year round.
