Villa "Casa do Alpendre" is located just 20 minutes from Fuseta beach, on the outskirts of Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo — a small village in the municipality of Tavira. Set in a region often described as one of the Algarve’s best-kept secrets, the villa sits in a lush green valley near a brook, offering a truly peaceful and quiet atmosphere. Despite its tranquil setting, it's just a 15-minute drive to the larger towns of Tavira and Olhão, with easy access to all amenities. Santa Catarina itself has a charming local market, perfect for bargain hunting, and there are plenty of excellent restaurants nearby for dining out. The villa features its own private pool, ideal for relaxing, with deckchairs and shaded areas on a spacious terrace. At night, the bright starry sky — thanks to zero light pollution — offers magical views. The terrace also includes a comfortable outdoor dining area with teak armchairs and a table for four, perfect for enjoying meals al fresco, surrounded by the beauty of the Algarvian hills. Inside, the open-plan living area includes a dining table and a well-equipped kitchen with a fridge-freezer, microwave, pyrolytic oven, and ceramic hob. There’s also a cosy lounge space with a large sofa, a log fire, and an LCD TV with cable channels — ideal for cooler evenings. With two double bedrooms and two bathrooms (both with showers), "Casa do Alpendre" is perfect for couples or small families seeking a peaceful getaway, while still having plenty to explore nearby during their stay. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa -
