Secluded 2 Bedroomed Country Cottage with Private Pool in rambling countryside

Built in the traditional Alentejo style this cottage is everything one could want for a truly quiet and relaxing break away from the crowds to be at one with nature. But it still has all mod cons (except for a dishwasher), and a beautiful pool exclusively for the use of those who rent it, with amazing panoramic views. You won't find a more peaceful getaway than this, yet its only a ten minute walk to the nwaearest village and a ten minute drive to a well stocked supermarket. If you do feel the need for the beach, the unspoilt west coast beaches are less than an hours drive away.

A word of warning:-
This is a country house set in the fields and is only accessible along a bumpy rough farm track 1km in length. If you are worried about your car please do not book this property.

Peaceful rural retreat
Delightful place in beautiful countryside with panoramic views. The only sounds around were the sheep bells, swallows, nearby horses and the distant trains to Faro and Lisbon. Very peaceful and private but just a 10 - 15 minute drive to the nearby town Ourique for restaurants and shops. The Alentejo cheese and wines are highly recommended! The pool was fantastic and big enough to swim properly in. Martin the owner was super helpful - met us in Ourique and guided us to the property and showed us around. He was on hand living nearby and always responded quickly to any queries and also checked the pool during our stay. He was so kind when we needed to find a hospital - even driving all the way there with us and translating for us!

Total seclusion!
Lovely villa with amazing views. Larger than expected swimming pool, well appointed villa. Grab your provisions from the supermarket 12km away and use this beautiful villa as a bolt hole for a fabulous rest.

Excellent get-away place.
We were looking for a private place with a private pool. This was a perfect place for us. We were completely isolated but still close enough to do shopping or go to a restaurant if we wanted. The kitchen was equipped enough for our needs apart for the lack of dishwasher The only negative thing we can mention were the wasps around the pool. But that might comes with the territory. Just a suggestion. Some of the windows should have nets to avoid some of the insects to come in during the day/night

Property in excellent location
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The property, although not the one listed but a 3 bedroom cottage further down the hill from property 6885406, was everything we wanted. Martin the owner explained that due to unforeseen circumstances he'd had to switch the property we stayed in but made sure we were happy with everything and, although never imposing on our privacy, was nearby should we need anything. Set in an excellent location with fantastic views all around, the cottage had all the facilities we could need including a private pool, en-suite bedrooms, spacious kitchen and comfortable living area, outside seating and BBQ. The nearby town Ourique is a lovely place only a 10 minute drive away with a good supermarket, cafes, fuel etc. Highly recommended.

Brilliant. Lovely, secluded villa with beautiful views. Well equipped with everything you're likely to need. Bit too cold for the pool in January, but do-able if you're brave enough. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to go back.

Wonderful stay in an idealic location
Surrounded by the beautiful Alentejo countryside, this villa has truly magnificent views. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and tranquillity. With a host of unspoilt beaches free of crowds just a short drive away, the villa provides a fantastic base to experience a less well known side of Portugal.

Ruhiger und abgeschieder Erholungsurlaub
Wir haben wundervolle 2 Wochen in dem Haus verbracht . Das Haus ist sehr abgelegen. Von dem zweiten Ferienhaus sieht man nur das Dach. Ein herrliche Ruhe, die nur morgens und anbends von den Glocken der Ziegen und Kühe unterbrochen wird. Die Zufahrt ist nur ein Feldweg – daher besser eine entsprechende Mietwagenversicherung abschließen…. Das Haus ist für vier Personen ausgelegt. Die Größe ist optimal. Die Küche ist gut und funktional eingerichtet, wenn auch nicht besonders modern. Das Schlafzimmer mir Doppelbett hat ein sich direkt anschließendes Badezimmer mit Badewanne. Ein weiteres Badzimmer mit Dusche ist neben dem zweiten Schlafzimmer. Es gibt zwar keine Klimaanlage, wenn man jedoch morgens gut durchlüftet, hält sich die Kühle den ganzen Tag. Der Pool ist groß genug, um ein wenig schwimmen zu können (auch im Kreis). So kann man herrlich die Aussicht auf die Gegend von der Terrasse aus genießen und sich kurz im Pool abkühlen, um dann weiter auf den Liegen zu entspannen. Der Vermieter ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir haben ihn nur kurz kennengelernt, da er selbst im Urlaub war. Dafür war ein Freund von ihm hilfsbereit uns zur Seite gestellt. Das nächstgelegene Dorf bietet nur geringe Einkaufsmöglichkeiten bzw Restaurants für Mittagessen. Die nächsten Supermärkte sind aber nur 10 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt und gut zu erreichen. Algrave und Westküste sind rund eine Autostunde entfernt. Die Wohnung eignet sich daher nicht unbedingt als Ausgangspunkt für Strandurlab.
