Infos

  Description

  I am British, living in rural Portugal, I have a small house with some land close to the village of Alferce. I live here with 2 dogs and a cat. It is very peaceful with beautiful views. I have the benefit of being in nature but close to the village and the small mountain town of Monchique. You can experience a slower way of life, the culture and experience local customs. I work as a communication coach and forest-bathing guide, and as well as loving being close to nature, I enjoy walking the trails and paths in the local area daily.

  Hébergement

  I have a self-contained studio attached to the house with a bathroom and fridge. This sleeps 1 or 2 people and has its own access and key, so you have privacy. There is a small swimming pool and space to park a car or a small campervan.
  I will provide 3 meals a day, and we can eat together.

  Autres infos...

  An ideal location for exploring the south-west of Portugal. Along with excellent walking and cycling trails from the door of the house, the stunning surf beaches on the west coast are 60 - 90 min away. The towns, beaches and watersports on the south coast are 35 - 60 min away. For culture and history, Silves is 40 min away.
  
  It is a low-key, peaceful place where you can see a stunning sunrise from the house, relax on the property, take a swim and play with the dogs.
  
  There is a local bar and cafe in the village, and I have friendly, helpful neighbours who sometimes come together to share food, but it's not a place for loud music or parties. No smoking inside the accommodation or house, but smoking outside is fine.
