Loved the house with patio in a beautiful country setting. Memorable experience eating the amazing dinner at the farm. We went for a swim in the lake a short walk from the house.

Lovely views, great pool and lake, lovely shaded terraces

Such a lovely location, in the middle of a farm. It was a very relaxing stay, great landscape, garden and all the animals around keeping you company.

The well-attended, very tastefully decorated room, the fantastic breakfast, the super-friendly host, the great location with its own "secret" lake, the closeness to a marvellous beach and beach bar ... the only regret we had was that we couldn't stay longer. Can't wait to be back!

It is a wonderful place with a dog. They also have a restaurant where you can eat very good food. I really liked it all :)

Excellent place to be in contact with nature. The hosts are absolutely amazing and the dogs (Patareco and Bobby) are an excellent company! Very looking forward to come back as soon as possible!

Everything, welcome, staff, resident animals, ambience, proximity to train station and couple of good local restaurants (walking distance) - would certainly stay again

A great location, so close to the lovely beaches, but away from it all, A tranquil location but with a lovely pool and a great lake (a little drive away). The local single track railway station is within walking distance if you want to leave the car behind. The accommodation has generous sized rooms that is more functional than luxurious. Outside area is also generous with comfortable hammock and table and chairs . The restaurant is well worth a visit we enjoyed a super meal there. There are a lot of pet cats around-so better suited to cat lovers. Plus a lively turkey! No TV but good wifi available.

Breakfast is very good. The swimming pool is great. We had dinner both nights of our stay and the food was very good as were the staff, especially Maria and her music choices.

Excellent little ecotourist resort - a very nice, sprawling farm house converted into a set of small independent guest houses, each with its own private patio. You are in real countryside here, surrounded by the fig and carob trees and vegetable gardens of this large property. The restaurant is excellent, serving a wide range of organic food in a small plate style. Heavenly. You can wander around the farm and pick vegetables and fruit as you wish. The various cats, dogs and turkeys wandering around will also happily befriend you. The swimming pool is great with wonderful views over the countryside. You're well away from the tourist crowds but it's only a five minute drive to the fantastic beach of Praia Verde. Avoid Monte Gordo!

Nestled between a Natural Reserve that is home to pink flamingos, the historic town of Castro Marim and the endless sandy beaches of the Algarve lies this active traditional farm, surrounded by 12 hectares of organic Mediterranean orchards with figs, oranges, olives and carob trees.
The nine individually and lovingly designed apartments and houses provide fully equipped kitchens, comfortable beds, private bathrooms, free Wi-Fi and private patios with a view of the gardens.
Guests can pick organic vegetables in one of the gardens to cook in the privacy of their home or enjoy the delicious meals in the cozy on-site restaurant, the Taberna Remexida.
For recreation there is a swimming pool with sun-deck as well as a private beach in walking distance at the lake of the farm. The beautiful Praia Verde Beach is only a 5-minute drive away. For the younger guests there is an exciting playground and the chance to watch goats, chicken, turkeys or little pigs.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.0 for a two-person trip.
