Lorraine, United Kingdom

This is such a beautiful place! Alexander and his wife are the loveliest couple we met in the Algarve (we live in the Algarve) and have created a great place with lots of attention for detail. The reading area is full of interesting books, the self service bar is great and breakfast was very good. The bed in the room was super comfortable. We had a wonderful night here, thank you for your hospitality and pride of this beautiful and interesting part of the Algarve!

This is a fabulous rural house just a few km from the beaches. Very peaceful and relaxed and a very welcoming host.

Colin, Australia

Excellent breakfast, excellent bedroom great views and fantastic host, Rafael.

Bernardo, Portugal

We only stayed for one night but would have happily stayed for longer. The building was beautifully restored and the room (while small) were creatively designed and very comfortable. It is family run and they were lovely hosts. Very welcoming. The breakfast was delicious and there were lovely little seating areas dotted around. Would recommend.

Jessica, United Kingdom

Very comfortable and peacefull place and with a great taste on what concerns to the design and the decoration. Great breakfast. A lot of things to do in the outdoor, starting by an amazing pool and the animal farm. Top quality for a higher but understandable price.

Francisco, Portugal

Very relaxing and quite place with nearly private pool, relaxing terrace and delicious breakfast. Perfect and warm welcome, friendly host and top service.

Everything was great. To be perfect, I would add some citronella candles outside, and would improve the amenities in the kitchen — bigger pan or a wok, corkscrew, vegetable peeler, kitchen paper roll (it's the same of having a bathroom with no toilet paper), wooden spoons, tablecloth, kitchen cloth (there was only one) and a oven tray or Pyrex.
