Great pool in hills with views
Lovely house with lots of space and a great pool for adult kids (and paddling pool for small ones) Good to be up in the hills with a breeze when it's hot, but easy to get to Olhao and Tavira for great food, shops and ferries to the beaches. Angie was very communicative and some late night arrival provisions were hugely appreciated.

A perfect place to stay
This villa is one of the best we’ve stayed in. The pool is lovely and there’s even a lawn area to sit in the shade. We had lots of fun evening meals outside. The villa itself is in a peaceful spot and much larger than you expect with comfortable bedrooms and a large sitting room. The area has lots of interesting place not just beaches. Honestly we’ve had a wonderful family holiday and I don’t think we could have found a better place.

We have had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful villa , very private and peaceful . Fab pool and outdoor space to chill with a glass of wine and star watch .. inside was very spacious and comfortable with all you need including a comfy bed 🙂. A great little cafe with drinks and snacks is only a short walk away and of course all the wonderful places to visit in the Algarve are within easy driving distance . We all thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at the charming , welcoming Quinta las Pedros and finally I would like to thank the host Angie for having us all xxxx we would love to return .

Superbly private
We felt very fortunate to be able to stay in this very private villa with a superb pool and outside space, overlooking fantastic views across the valley. A very comfortable traditonal farmhouse, with everything you need for a great holiday. There is a small, friendly cafe bar a short level walk away. Very central for all of the Algarve's hot spots. Angie was excellent at accommodating our change of plans and her communications were outstanding, quick to respond and always friendly. We loved meeting Pedro the gardener on his tractor and David who was super friendly. Thankyou for a lovely stay in Portugal

A lovely rural idyll (with luxury heated swimming pool).
A fantastic (and spacious) house that feels remote, calm, and picturesque. The building itself has space where you need it (a great high-ceilinged lounge), a good annex-like room upstairs for teenagers to hide away in, and some great facilities. The kitchen is a little tight (this is a proper farmhouse conversion) but you get used it to and there are numerous build barbies for outside cooking. The pool was super warm, a good size, and quite deep. The neighborhood feels very rural, you're halfway up a mountain (well, very big hill), and there are some amazing views and lovely peaceful walks. Coms with the owner were great - some helpful notes, direction (it is quite hard to find in the dark), and everything was sorted very smoothly. We were there for nearly two weeks and will be recommending the house to friends who want the benefits of being near Faro, while not feeling they are part of the hustle and bustle of resort life.

An authentic Portuguese experience
We found this property very comfortable and convenient. It is located well away from the built-up areas of the Algarve but the coastal towns are within easy reach. The swimming pool is excellent. The rooms and the garden are very pleasant too.

Loved being up in hills, away from it all where we could relax by the pool, enjoy the views, bbq the wonderful fish we bought at Loule and Olhau markets and of course drink lots of great wine - all without being disturbed by anyone. We were lucky to have perfect weather too. It was a great holiday.

Superb holidays in a beautiful house
I can not praise our holidays enough. Everything from the first email contact with our lovely host Angie to the villa, pool, travel tips was absolutely perfect. Very easy and fast communication. All my 10000 questions were answered with much patience and knowledge:)! The house as such is beautiful and super clean. There was an added bonus of a maid service with fresh towels and sheets halfway through our stay, which we didn't expect! Much appreciated! And also our first breakfast essentials as we arrived late at night. So nice! The area is lovely, short drives to the most stunning beaches. Lovely towns and villages are also nearby. We had no idea how beautiful Portugal is and will be back!!!!!! :)

Absolutely beautiful Villa and surroundings
We stayed for 14 nights at this Villa and it was probably the nicest one that we have stayed in over the last few years of renting villas abroad. The owners communication was spot on and the facilities and surroundings were just perfect. We weren’t disturbed during our stay which was wonderful as we like to have peace and quiet when we are away . We paid extra for the pool to be heated which was glorious. (Well worth it ) , even though the weather was fantastic. I would like to thank the owner for recommending a great restaurant Lagar de Mesquita , which we went to twice while we were there . Will definitely be going back soon .

Take me back!
If you are looking for a holiday ‘away from it all’, surrounded by stunning natural beauty this is the place. The views are immense and the garden flowers are stunning. The kids spent all day in the pool which was great fun. The house is quirky, cool and comfortable. Action is not far away if you want beach life and ‘Slide and Splash’ water park was a good day out (for the kids anyway!!) Angie was always at hand and willing to help with any questions. Thank you Angie and John!

Peace and relaxation
This was a lovely private villa. Very spacious and comfortable. Perfectly placed for privacy peace and quiet. The pool was lovely and much enjoyed by my youngest daughter. Gorgeous views of the mountains and on the other side the sea. Well away from the busy tourist spots but with the car it was still easy to get around. Very relaxing just what we'd hoped for.

Fortnight in lovely sunshine July- August 2019
We have just returned from a very relaxing fortnight at this beautiful villa. As our plane arrived late in the evening, Angie had very kindly bought us some food to tide us over until we could get to the supermarket the next day, which was exceptionally thoughtful and very much appreciated. The villa is set in very peaceful surroundings away from the hustle and bustle but is very accessible from Faro airport. It is tastefully decorated throughout but our favourite part was most definitely the outdoor pool and surrounding patio, both of which have amazing vistas. We had wonderful, warm weather but it was not stiflingly hot. Fans were provided in each of the bedrooms but the lounge area was always cool. We would heartily recommend crossing the border and going to Seville one day if you are happy to drive a couple of hours. You will not be disappointed! Thank you, John and Angie for a lovely fortnight.

Lovely property
We enjoyed a wonderful 10 days staying in the old farmhouse. The location is only 20 minutes from the airport, up in the hills with very little close by. The views from the rear of the property are fabulous. The booking process and communication with the owners Angie and John were really easy and smooth. During our stay we needed to contact them as we had a slight issue and it was dealt with straight away. The property itself has thick stone walls and stone floors so was nice and cool inside however hot it got outside. Being Portugal in June we didn't really take any warmer clothes so ended up lighting the log burner in the lounge in the evenings which was so cosy. The pool was a great size and we were pleased that we decided to pay the additional cost to have it heated as the children could literally stay in all afternoon if they wanted to. There was plenty of stuff in the kitchen and also lots of things not listed such as inflatables for the pool, buckets and spades, balls, kids toys, cool bag, freezer blocks etc all of which made life easier. We would recommend this property. It's not the modern type of property we've stayed in on previous holidays but was a rustic, charming old house that we thoroughly enjoyed staying in.

Stunning location in the Algarve countryside with superb views
Matching the stunning location this villa ticks all the boxes for the most relaxing yet still adventurous holiday as you explore the Algarve. The villa as everything you need is very spacious with every kind of amenity you require. We could not smile wide enough when ee arrived knowing that our expectations had been met and then some. If i have one negative the shower in the master bedroom needs updating but it did not detract from my stay in a most wonderful place Thank You Angie & John for making our 2017 holiday so special.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Travelled with a one and five year old and the property catered for them both. Lovely swimming pool - paddling pool is a bonus when you have young children!
