Description from owner

Description

your place in the sun to relax and get away from it all.

Casa Borboleta is set amongst the orange groves in the small village of Vale Covo, situated between the A22 motorway and the N125 road. Just 7 kms. from Vilamoura and it's famous marina.
With easy access to all main towns, golf courses, beaches, sightseeing spots, walking and cycling trails, it is the ideal setting for those who want to “chill out” yet still be within reach of beaches, watersports and nightlife, if they want it.

If cycling, walking or bidrwatching are your main interests, this is a wonderful spot for you to stay.

The accomodation – the original property was two semi-detached farm cottages and a stable. The two “semis” were converted into our house and the stable is a pretty one bedroom, self contained cottage for two people.
The cottage consists of one bedroom with twinbeds, bathroom, living room/ kitchenette which leads onto a south facing patio, ideal for the sun worshipper and a favourite place for our guests to have meals or to watch the sun set with a glass of wine.

There is a television, DVD player and radio/CD player with a large selection of films and books.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, full gas cooker and fridge/freezer.

Set in the same garden as our house you will have total privacy but we will be on hand to point you in the right direction for places to visit, shopping and cheap but very good eating places!
