    Perfect "get away from it all" Property
    Had a very relaxing 3 week stay. The property is perfect if you are looking for some peace and quiet in a rural setting. Hosts are very responsive and often checked in via WhatsApp to ensure everything was ok for me. Highly recommended!

    Good stay
    The property is well located (just the national road that is near the house and you can sometimes ear the cars passing by). The house is very well equipped. Jacuzzi is great. The pool is fantastic,so big! Just take care of white bikini (there's a product against algea that turns things yellow). We didn't meet the owners but they were always available by WhatsApp. They had prepared wine, cheese, bread, beers,etc... for our arrival. It was very kind. The only thing that disappointed me was the cleanliness in some parts of the house. The rubbish bin wasn't empty,they were spider webs, the kitchen cupboards were not very clean,etc... I only mentioned it when we left because we arrived late on Saturday night and they couldn't have done anything at this time (and I wanted to have a good communication during my stay.) My little 3 years girl plays on the floor and it was not possible to wait for someone to clean. So I did it. I told the owners when we left. They apologized but told me it was not a big deal. I didn't like this reaction. It's sad. We left the house cleaner that it was.

    Excellent location and well maintained property. The pool is simply fantastic and reading or simply relaxing with the sound of birds is very peaceful. The internet connection is of good quality. The owners are very friendly and available to help and make us feel at home.

    The villa is 'away from it all' and set in beautiful gardens. We were privileged to see a variety of wildlife and birds during our stay. The swimming pool and hot tub were great to relax in. It is a quiet and peaceful area and the villa is very well equipped with everything you need and more.

    Simply perfect!
    This was our favourite family holiday destination by a long way. We arrived here with our two children (7/8) at the end of October and had the most idyllic 2 week stay. The house was immaculate and the grounds were enormous. The children has lots of freedom, we brought walkie-talkies and they were able to go feed nearby horses, while we 'waited' in the hot tub. There was also a games room, pool, table tennis, darts... we didn't hear 'I'm bored' once! Due to the geography of the house we were able to travel to the west coast, up north to Evora and east to Spain. We also travelled to the south coast a few times, where the children had a beach (Praia de Senhora de Rocha) completely to themselves. Restaurants near the property served fabulous food. The shops in Ourique had everything we needed, though our gracious guests had bought us the essentials so we didn't have to go to the shops until the next day. We floated home with a definite plan to return to this property.

    Amazing
    Just got back from a 10 day stay at this superb villa. it does exactly what it says on the packet - peaceful, relaxing, perfect, everything you could possibly want and more, attention to detail second to none. the villa itself is more than well equipped and the owners have ensured it is literally like a home from home - there was absolutely nothing we lacked for, including English TV should we have wanted it. we were emailed before our arrival to see what we would like from the shop but they also got us wine and beer too. Mel and Neill were there to greet us and explain everything and were on hand if we needed anything. there were even things to use in the pool which was cleaned twice during our stay (Mel turning up with homemade scones, jam and cream too!!) the hottub was amazing and there are 4 separate areas with dining tables and chairs. there are a few restaurants nearby and a good supermarket too. we never paid more that 3 euros for a bottle of wine and never had a bad bottle!! we used the BBQ three times and loved it. the shade from the tree was needed every day as temperatures were over 100 degrees every afternoon. the beds were the comfiest I've ever slept in anywhere on holiday and we always had a good nights sleep as the air con units were superb. the pool was definitely NOT cold especially if you used the shower by the pool first before getting in, which you should do anyway and it was HUGE!! Amazing to swim laps in and also just to lazily float around. there wasn't another soul around for miles so it was the most peaceful holiday we've ever had. to say that Mel and Neill were the kindest most attentive hosts we've ever had would be an understatement! Nothing was too much trouble and all they wanted was to make sure we had everything we needed to make our holiday perfect - which it was. Even to the point where, as an animal lover, I fed a beautiful cat for several days then one day she turned up with two adorable kittens, which never ceased to make us laugh watching their antics. I didn't want to leave them but Mel and Neill, being animal lovers themselves having rescued three stray dogs and lots of beautiful parrots at their own home, offered to catch them and rehome them in their house - amazing and so kind hearted. All in all we can only say if you are wondering whether to book this villa, don't delay - peace, tranquillity, just like home, beautiful surroundings. we are already looking at dates for next year, a true treasure.
