Casa Dos Irmaos in the Valley of the Orange Trees

This charming country cottage (semi-detached house) in traditional Portuguese style is located in a quiet, idyllic valley surrounded by orange groves, between the towns of Silves and Messines in the beautiful Algarve hinterland. The Arade Reservoir is about 1.5 km away, and the nearest beach and the coast are a 20-minute drive away.

The house features an open-concept, rustic living area with a dining nook and a well-equipped kitchen featuring a ceramic cooktop and dishwasher, a mezzanine bedroom, a bathroom with a shower, and a private terrace. It is equipped with a wood-burning stove, satellite TV, air conditioning, and free Wi-Fi.

The light-filled mezzanine bedroom with a double bed is accessible from the living area via a staircase and offers access to the spacious terrace with a barbecue area. The terrace is furnished with patio furniture and sun loungers and is the perfect spot for al fresco dining, sunbathing, or winding down the day with a glass of wine.

This cosy holiday home is ideal for nature lovers and anyone seeking peace and relaxation, away from mass tourism and the hustle and bustle that typically characterises the coast, especially during the summer months —yet it’s still only about a 10-minute drive from Silves, with its sights and all its amenities. Hiking trails are located in the immediate vicinity of the property and are quick and easy to reach.

Pets are welcome upon request; smoking is permitted only outdoors.
