We enjoyed the lush surroundings , the most delicious breakfast and the friendly owners.

Beverly United States of America

Swimming pool is fantastic. Views were nice. Garden is very well kept. The privacy was also a plus.

Maria Spain

Started the day looking at the sunrise from a quiet spot under some trees. Great cooked breakfast, served on patio. Tasty evening means prepared on the premises meant we didn't have to go anywhere! Layout of the guest-rooms and access very clever, allowing for privacy, or places to simply take in the view of surrounding landscape.

Darrel Austria

Very comfortable, relaxing spot, nearby beautiful Silves. Everything was just great there, welcoming host, delicious breakfasts, and chillout corner just by our room. We would love to go back and we definitely will!

Łukasz Ireland

An amazing bed and breakfast with spectacular views. We really enjoyed this relaxed ambiance. Very nice and welcoming owner, delicious breakfast with beautiful products from the Algarve. Great vibes and total relaxation around this location! Also a good spot to drive around through the Algarve and Silves itself is a beautiful town.

Nikki Netherlands

Very nice host. Breakfast was delicious. Pool area was perfect.

Severine Switzerland

We stayed in the Garden Studio 'Alma do barrocal'. We had a small kitchen, nice & good bed, clean bathroom + we had a nice terrace with table+chairs, cosy corner and a hammock. Nice view on the mountains and the area. If you like a quiet, peaceful stay (away from the tourist area) this is the place to go. Swimmingpool was clean and good beds to chill + enjoy the view!

Katrien Belgium

The beautiful cabin situated in your very own corner of a lush garden. Breakfast on the terrace, overlooking the garden and the nice pool.

Roy Netherlands

Centrally located - 20 minutes drive to the beaches on the south coast and about an hour drive to the west coast. The rooms are cosy and adequately equipped. Beach towels and an umbrella were also provided. Lovely pool area and gardens to relax at if you just want to chill. Gloria and Matheus are lovely hosts who are always available to answer questions or to give tips. They hosted a dinner evening for their guests where they served dishes that are typical of the Algarve - good food - worth trying 😊

Sarah Germany

The owners are very friendly, with a lovely breakfast in the morning and an amazing view to enjoy in the evening.

Host Info

Host Review Score
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.
