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 :)
HungaryExcellent 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!
SwitzerlandEverything, welcome, staff, resident animals, ambience, proximity to train station and couple of good local restaurants (walking distance) - would certainly stay again
United KingdomMargarita, our host, was fabulous! We loved the farm tour when we checked in and all the goodies in the farm store. Breakfast was amazing! And our accommodations were A+!
United States of AmericaWe loved the respect for the earth; the fostering of crops that are good for the area; the time Maggie took to show us round and educate us and show her love for the place; the dinner was lovingly prepared and served; the animals; the gift of homemade fig preserves. Delightful. Serene.
CanadaThe people were so welcoming; the restaurant is to die for; the place is very relaxing!
FranceThe fact that we can cook with fresh ingredientes just picked outside is a lovely experience. The place is fully equipped - you gotta love the tiny dishwasher. Also, have to mention the shower: perfect pressure and temperature.
PortugalThe house was very nice and well equipped with a great outdoor area. We very much enjoyed the garden and the animals. The people are super friendly and helpful.
GermanyGreat stay with friends, away from the crowds. Well maintained and beautiful.
SpainBeing able to wander the gardens and pick fresh vegetables and herbs for our dinner. Great staff friendly and helpful.

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 9.2 for a two-person trip.
