About this property

Beautiful, spacious villa with solar pool & games room

  • Large well-appointed villa in rolling hills, set in 4 acres looking south west down a valley studded with carob and olive trees, carpeted with wild flowers in Spring. This wonderfully peaceful location is only 7km from some of the finest beaches in the Algarve, close to the lovely towns of Castro Marim (5km) and Vila Real (7km). Spain is 10 mins by car and Seville 90 minutes.The glorious River Guadiana and its valley is close by and a drive north takes you to the small towns, vineyards & cork oaks of the Alentejo. Monte Gordo with its lively nightlife and casino is on the nearby coast.
    The villa is very well situated for those wishing to explore; or you may prefer to laze by the solar heated pool, re-tiled with new lights winter 2020/21, and to soak up the views from the various terraces, or shaded decking area where the main BBQ is placed. It is surrounded by open countryside, and is well distanced from other properties and people, perhaps relevant during Covid concerns.
    The salt marshes around Castro Marim are renowned for birdwatching. As for golf, the closest courses, in order of expense, are Castro Marim, (5km),with 27 holes, Quinta do Vale, designed by Seve Ballasteros, (7km), and Monte Rei designed by Jack Nicklaus, (8km). Others within a 30 minute drive include Quinta da Ria, Quinta da Cima and Benamor. There are several more over the border in Spain.

Delightful villa with great views

Very clean, spacious villa with lovely pool and superb views across the valley. Quiet, peaceful, clean - perfect antidote to the hustle and bustle of the coast further west.

We enjoyed a lovely week at the villa. It was well appointed and clean with lots of space for 6 of us. The pool, views and games room were particular highlights. Castro Marim is only minutes away. Seville is only 90mins drive for a day trip. The location is remote but peaceful, note a car is needed.

Very nice villa and pool

Quiet surroundings and no other tourists. Nice settings very good pool, but hot very hot weather. Comfortable house. After sunset lots of mosquitos so the warm nights had to be enjoyed inside - a bit dissappointing.

Beautiful location, super quiet

We wanted somewhere quiet with a large pool - this met the brief perfectly. We had a few minor issues which were resolved quickly and efficiently by Luis, who is brilliant. Rooms were comfortable, and aircon everywhere made for a very pleasant stay.

Quiet & plenty of space

Nice choice for a family who is looking for an off-the-bitten-track place to relax and recharge batteries. Plenty of space, a nice welcoming food & drinks basket so you don't have to rush to supermarket to get the basics.

Beautiful villa in countryside location

Our 3rd stay which says it all really. Lovely villa in peaceful location without being remote. Pity abouf the weather for this trip but the games room came in very handy. Well equipped with quality items. Not the normal rental basic equipment. Hope to repeat next year !

Wonderful stay at Quinta da Lavanda

Quinta da Lavanda is a well preserved, comfortable and well equipped villa near Castro Marim and its beaches. We enjoyed particularly the terrace with the view, where we had our daily breakfast and lunches. Table tennis and foosball were a plus and we used it intensively during our stay :-) Last but not the least, there is a heated pool we couldn't resist to use even during the hot evenings! We hope to return again to Quinta da Lavanda next time we go to Castro Marim.

It was a wonderful week

This is a lovely villa with amazing views and in a very quiet area. We are three generations who spent a wonderful week here. The villa is extremely well equipped and everything was as described. Luis met us on arrival and showed us round and was very helpful. It was very hot during our stay and, apart from a couple of trips to the beach, we were all happy to spend most of our time round the pool. We also went to a festival at Castro Marim one evening which everyone enjoyed. We would recommend to anyone wanting a quiet break.

Wonderful property

We had a brilliant two weeks in this villa. Everything worked really well. The solar heated pool was incredible and we could enjoy it for hours on end as it was so warm. The large games room was fabulous for the kids. We enjoyed all the various terraces and outdoor spaces and the property has been designed really well to ensure there is always opportunity to sunbathe or enjoy the cooler shade. The property agent (Luis) was helpful too. The local beaches are just stunning with gorgeous soft sand. And the local supermarkets stock all you need. I highly recommend this villa.

Solitude

A beautiful villa not too difficult to find initially but once you arrive all your cares disappear. A lovely pool nice clean and warm (although it could do with a pool cover to keep the heat in overnight) A games room below with table tennis, pool table, tv and kitchen wonderful idea with access directly out to the pool. A home in the countryside for a peaceful time and not too far from the beach (15/20 mins) with plenty of supermarkets along the way if you want something on your return from a day on the beach much better than I first envisaged Good shaded areas out of the sun or breeze if required Many thanks for a memorable stay. Please give thanks to Luis for meeting us after a late arrival following an airport delay he was most helpful and always available should we have required his services.

Excellent location and property

House is as described. The pictures do not do it justice. The rooms appear dark and make the furniture seem old. In reality, the rooms are very bright and the furniture is of very good quality. Unlike other villas, no expense was spared when buying settees that are not saggy and extremely clean. The kitchen appliances are also of good quality, mainly Bosch, and there is enough cutlery and crockery for a battalion. There is a second fridge / freezer in the games room and a second cooker, that we did not use. The pool is fantastic. We used it at the beginning of the season when the temperatures dipped at night and it was still quite warm. The views are stunning. Some people moaned about dogs. We could only hear them at around 7pm for no more than 5 minutes. We were far more impressed by the calling of partridges that we could spot around. Good quality bedsheets and towels, bed was a little soft but this is not a criticism, just a matter of preference. Although there were only 2 of us, lots of towels were provided and ALL bathrooms and bedrooms were ready for guests. There were lots of pans and pots, the barbecue was close to the pool. Luis, the property manager is a very nice man. Nothing is too much for him. He sorts out everything and he is a fountain of knowledge. He would come whenever needed and he will check that everything is in order, that customers are happy and do not need anything. The welcome pack was also a nice gesture. Will definitely come back.

Everything perfect from start to finish. Clear communication from hosts, directions to Villa and check in instructions very easy to follow. Luis the property manager was there to meet us and show us around, the villa was cleaned to a high standard and all ready for us. The pool was fantastic, we had great weather and the water temperature was just right. The rural location suited us fine and it was lovely to explore the local towns and area.

We all enjoyed our holiday at the villa. It's spacious with good facilities; the pool is lovely and the games room is a useful retreat for teenagers. We had a quick response from Louis when the power failed and the local shops, etc. are easily accessible. A car is essential.
