House and Terrace
Look forward to a functionally equipped, detached holiday home on an idyllic and very spacious property and relaxing hours on the large, partially covered terrace. The old farmhouse near Gorjoes between Loulé and Faro has been renovated with love and charm in recent years. The new gable roof with large window elements lets a lot of light into the house. The beautiful atmosphere in the house invites you to relax, dream and feel good. The house consists of a main house and an annex. Both halves of the house have recently been completely renovated. The entire roof has been renewed in 2020.

Comfortably furnished rooms await you in the house and offer space to feel comfortable and in the bright and very high main room, consisting of the living room and the adjoining, lower-lying kitchen, you can relax and enjoy the tranquility; delicious to eat with open patio doors or to end the evening together by the fireplace. The kitchen is fully equipped: all kitchen appliances and the coffee machine are ready for use. Cooking is done on the gas stove. Dishes and cutlery are available for 10 people. There are six bedrooms (four in the main house and two in the annex) with a total of 10 beds.
