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 personal and always professional welcome you receive, together with the friendly atmosphere, will make you feel at home straightaway. The personalised service ensures that any request is dealt with, down to the smallest detail. Our boutique B&B 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.

We are passionate owners always trying to offer an unforgettable experience at our B&B. We tried to create an atmosphere of relax, privacy and comfort, mixed with good food and a lot of practical informations to get the most out of your holidays in Algarve, so we personally experienced many activities, tours and tracks, in order to offer a wide range of opportunities for people of different ages and different needs. In order to let our guest enjoy these places in the best possible way, we offer a free hiring of a Pre-Loaded GARMIN GPS to ensure that nobody will never miss what is looking for.

Gato Preto de Silves is located about 40 min from Faro Airport, in the center of Algarve. Our B&B is just 4 km from Silves town and only 15 minutes from one of the most beautiful beach in Algarve, Praia da Marinha. Our rural B&B, set on a south facing hillside overlooking an orange grove valley, offers exclusive accommodation for travellers in Algarve, looking for a peaceful haven within easy reach of the sea and surrounded by the scents and colours that pervade this region all year round.
