Description

This charming, large cottage-style villa is situated just above the village of Salema and has superb views of the sea and coastline all the way to Sagres and Cape St.Vincent. It is only about a five-minute walk down to the village and lovely sandy beach, but a bit longer on the way back! Salema is an attractive old fishing village with some local and tourist shops, a variety of local and other cafés and restaurants, and even a cash-point machine. There is a bank and chemist in Vila do Bispo, a short drive away, and Intermarché, a large food/supply supermarket is about 3 klms away near the resort of Golfe de Santo António (formerly Parque da Floresta). This established course has a driving range as well as the challenging 18-hole course, a bowling green, and tennis courts. Other amenities i.e. Spa/gym may be available. Riding stables at Almadena are about halfway on the road to Lagos, which is only about 16 kilometres distance. There is a bus service to Lagos but we consider a car to be essential at this villa. However, we have had visitors who wanted to hibernate without a car and we can arrange for a supermarket to deliver supplies to the villa.
There is wheelchair access from the front terrace and into one of the bedrooms, a bathroom and through the servery to the kitchen.

ACCOMMODATION for 8 with Tourist Licence «AL» Rental Registration Nº 25967/AL. There are reduced rents for fewer people out of Peak season, please apply.

The front door opens into a small hall, to the left of which is a locked linen cupboard and a cloakroom. The hall leads into the living/dining room; a feature is made by a small upper landing, which has a writing desk, and then steps lead down to the main part of the room. This pleasant room was retiled in 2014 and has comfortable seating, a slow-burning log stove for cooler spring or autumn evenings, a plasma TV and a DVD (bring your own DVDs). There are wide French doors leading out to a lovely part-covered terrace, which is equipped for outside dining and lounging. At the dining end of the main room, a door leads through a servery /bar corridor with a drinks fridge, to the fitted kitchen. Nicely tiled and well equipped with fridge plus freezer compartment, gas cooker, dishwasher and microwave oven. The kitchen has a back door to access the second bedroom and pool areas.

At the far end of the living room, a door opens into the main bedroom area. To the right there is a widened door to a twin-bedded room and ahead a widened door into a full bathroom, comprising a bathtub (with shower attachment), basin and loo. To the left, there is a second twin bedroom with a shower room en suite, (a shower cubicle, basin and loo). The second bedroom area is reached from a door beside the kitchen back door. This leads ahead to an attractive twin bedroom with French doors out to a patio and a shower room en-suite (shower, basin and loo). To the right down a flight of stairs is another twin bedroom, again with French doors to a more secluded terrace and its own full bathroom (bathtub with shower, basin and loo). There is a locked private cupboard.
