Description from owner

Description

Casa das Rochas is situated, very private on the top of our plot , in midden of nature and at the horizont you can see glizzering the beautyful sea with it large beaches near the nature reservate Ria da Formosa and Tavira.

Over nice landroads you reach easely the sea .You can pass the beautyful laggoon area "Ria da Formosa " by feed, with little ferry boats or with a little train which is a relaxing wayto reach the water area.

Casa das Rochas got its name because of the integrated rocks, which you call in portugues "Rochas" which the owner integrated when the house was built.

The nice, colourful and cosy house with a Roof made with a traditional plant in calls "grass of Cana" is well situated,very private and works perfect for 2 adults and 1-2 smaller children or as well with 3 adults.

( for 2 children depending of age) please ask me) .

The house has two floors separated only through three flat steps.

On the 1. floor you will find a sofa-bed area and another relaxing area behind a rock what can be a relaxing area , or can be done as a bed for a child.

On the ground- floor you will find a double bed with mosquitonet and ventilatores and from here it goes to the nice marmore bath with a thub and shower, bidet and a toilett.

All bed have ventilatores and mosquitonets.

From here you reach through a little wintergarden with a table and chairs, the separate and full equipped kitchen room with barbecue next to it.

A path is going behind the house to an outdoor shower which is really loved by our guests in summer.

In front of the house is the garden area with a terrace ,a dining place and sunchairs.

Nice walking paths, through our garden leads you to the nice pool area which is for all our guests to use for.

This house is really well integrated in our land , something for lovers of nature and privacy for poeple who loves it to live without to be disturbed while having holidays but to have everything nice nearby like the next little village calls: Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo only 3km away with a pharmacy, a shop with fresh fruits and vegetables from the region ,cafes and pubs and little restaurants.

10 km from here you will be at the wonderful Atlantic, awarded for it best water quality in Europe. beautyful,large beaches situated in the protected area calls: Ria da Formosa, invites the guests to make long walks, to enjoy a day by swimming ,reading and doing almost nothing.Holidays!!

Or as well you find everything you like to do with in the water.

And in the evening you could visit the perl of the Algarve the well restored and very charming Renaissance city calls Tavira ,with it around 40 churches ,old buildings and wonderful little streets and pathes through the old center.

Restaurants ,cafes,little handycraft shops and cultural events by night show the best of Portugal and invites to meet portuguese and international poeple.

The river, calls Rio do Gilao, devites the city into two historical parts with all the protected buildings and places to visit and empties into the sea where you can visit the island of tavira for example wih it little pine tree wood and large beaches .

But as well it is worse to visit as well the country site with it mountain areas with all the cork , carob and almond trees which becomes it beautyful white flowers in January.

Then it seems as it would have snowed in Portugal.

PLEASE READ THE NICE COMMENTARIES( collected during the years we are renting) of FORMER GUESTS UNDER the website of: HOMEAWAY...

Plaese ask me if you have any questions I am here for you.

Getting around

I can recommend the guest to hite a car for visiting all nearby beauties like Tavira town the nice beaches and to make trips in order to sea the Westcoast for a day trip or to visit Sevilla only 2 hours drive away . Many nice country roads are to be discovered and guiding the guestss through cuntry site and nature or to cities like Faro and Olhao. A bus line is leaving around 1km distance from our Quinta to Tavira and to S. Bras de Alportel but not every hours for example. Therefor I recommend to hire a car.
