Rural Retreat Near Lagos – Private Garden – Family Friendly – Pet Friendly

Welcome to Casa do Avô António, a rural retreat where you can enjoy the peace of the countryside without giving up the convenience of being close to the beaches and the city of Lagos. Located in Bensafrim, just 7 km from Lagos, this traditional 80 m² house is perfect for families, couples, or small groups seeking privacy, comfort, and a connection with nature.



Wake up to birdsong, have breakfast on the terrace surrounded by nature, and end your day with a sunset barbecue, taking in the calm of the Algarve countryside.



The house accommodates up to 4 guests and features two bedrooms, one bathroom, a cozy living room, and a fully equipped kitchen. Free Wi-Fi, TV, washing machine, high chair, and baby cot are provided, making it an excellent choice for families with children.



Outside, you'll find a large private garden, covered and open terraces, a barbecue, and an outdoor dining area—ideal for relaxing after a day at the beach. On hot days, you can cool off in the outdoor shower. The property also has a traditional irrigation tank, used for agricultural purposes due to water scarcity in the region—this is not a swimming pool and should not be used for bathing or hygiene. Pets are welcome, so the whole family can enjoy the holiday together.



Within minutes, you can explore Lagos’ beaches, Ponta da Piedade, Meia Praia, Praia Dona Ana, and the historic center, full of restaurants, shops, and entertainment. If you’re looking for a peaceful place with authenticity, privacy, and an excellent location to discover the Algarve, Casa do Avô António is the perfect choice for an unforgettable holiday.

Pros: Lugar muy tranquilo y acogedor. Tal y como se muestra en las imágenes. La casa era muy bonita, una casa tradicional de campo, estaba muy bien ubicada y tenía todo lo necesario para pasar una buena estancia. El terreno era más amplio de lo que esperaba, con muchos rincones especiales donde poder sentarte. Tienen una alberca justo en frente del porche principal, árboles frutales, barbacoa... En general, tiene todo lo necesario para pasar unas muy buenas vacaciones. Y, aceptan llevar perros (2) ¡Eso lo hace un lugar estupendo! La atención y el recibimiento también fueron excelentes.

Toller,naturnaher Garten. Haus mit Geschichte

Pros: Das Haus liegt etwas abseits auf einem Berg mit einem für uns wunderschönen, naturbelassen Garten,der Kinder- und Hundeherzen höher schlagen lässt. Überall sind tolle Pflanzen und liebevolle Details zu finden. Wir waren Ende April da und konnten schon reife Früchte direkt vom Baum essen. Das Haus wurde liebevoll restauriert und hier gibt es viel Geschichte zu entdecken. Es war sehr sauber und wir wurden mit selbstgemachter Feigenkonfitüre, Gebäck,Wein und einem Blumenstrauß aus dem Garten herzlich Willkommen geheißen. Der Check in war per Schlüsselbox sehr unkompliziert. Unsere Vermieter waren immer erreichbar und sehr nett. Cons: So richtig hat uns nichts nicht gefallen. Insgesamt haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Dusche ist für große Menschen etwas herausfordernd aber ansonsten war es ein entspannter und naturnaher Aufenthalt. Man darf keinen großen Luxus erwarten,dafür aber ein authentisches ,liebevoll restauriertes Haus in wundervoller Natur. Vielleicht ist noch für manch einen wichtig,dass man je nach Windrichtung die nahegelegene Autobahn hört. Uns hat es aber weiter nicht gestört.

Un havre de paix

L'endroit parfait pour des vacances au calme. A 10/15min des plages tout en etant a la campagne. La maison est super. Bien équipée..simple mais y a tout ce qu'il faut. Elle a été rénové..pleins de vieux objets de famille en decoration qui montrent l'attachement de cette famille a la maison de leur grand père..Que dire du jardin: un vrai petit paradis. Il est magnifique et grand. Pleins de petits recoins, pleins d'amandiers ainsi qu'une pierre pour casser et deguster des amandes directement récoltées dans l'arbre. La maison est comme sur l'annonce. Ca vaut le détour pour voir l'algarve tout en etant au calme. Des petits attentions gourmandes nous attendaient a notre arrivée. Et la communication avec les proprietaires est super simple. Bref vous l'aurez compris: C'EST PARFAIT!!!!!!!
