GREETINGS FROM PARADISE!
Only 6 miles from one of the best beaches in the world, called Praia da Rocha.... I have a farmhouse situated at the foothills of the Monchique mountains, but by no means isolated, My little village is on a bus route which takes you to the lovely town of Portimão, google it....you'll be pleasantly surprised.
My House is in a great location halfway between Monchique and Portimão, 5 miles each way. It's next to a forest and mountains, which has some lakes. I also have a small lake and a row boat and a few acres of mountain land. There is a very attractive restaurant that has reasonably priced meals, with pretty bourganvilla overhead, the restaurant is at the top of my lane, just 5 minutes walk away.I have satellite Internet, a renewable energy system providing abundant power.
I have 3 female dogs, an Alaskan Malamute and her 2 daughters.. I would like my guest to take them for a walk in the mornings in the woodlands next to my house. There are no roads nearby, so they don’t need a lead, they run free. The other help I need is with the land clearance in the Springtime.
If you have some knowledge of motor mechanics or basic plumbing. would be a great advantage.
The Algarve has lots to see and do, it has beautiful beaches within easy reach from my home. There is a wide range of water sports, superb golf courses and with 3000 hours of sunshine a year in which to enjoy the outdoor life.
I enjoy cooking nice meals. I am a vegetarian, but I don’t mind cooking meat dishes for other people.
I have a comfortable cabana with a bathroom available for my guests to use.
if you would like to stay here, please contact me, I will reply with further details. All enquiries answered.
I'm Looking forward to meeting you.... Karen

walking my 3 dogs off leash in the woodlands and to the lakes which are near my home, each morning. Possibly some land clearance in the Springtime and the odd job.
