Photos and Description of the Tavira region holiday chateau / country house

A vast conspiracy to make you happy…. With sweeping views of the coastline, hidden at the end of an access road half a mile long, MONTE SERRA offers peace, quiet and SAFETY for children: there is no traffic except for your self, the neighbour or the shepherd and his flock. Moreover a wall with gate and lock seals off the pool area. Thirty acres of centuries old trees ensure privacy to 4 self-contained accommodations. The place is huge: guests seldom bump into each other but if they do, they probably meet a like-minded soul. The grounds hide many corners for a quiet chat or some enjoyable reading. The palm garden terrace with its gorgeous ocean view invites to high tea, sundowners or a festive dinner at the large marble table. Take a refreshing dive, seek the solace of the pergola’s shade after too much sun, stroll through the citrus groves, pick a grapefruit for breakfast or at night, enjoy the starry sky and scent of ”dama da noite”, a flower that awakens when the sun has set.

Details for O Casarão, the manor house

The manor-like main house, restored to its 19th century glory, displays Moorish flavoured doors and windows, period furniture, Kazakh rugs and stylish bathrooms. Original terra cotta tiles clad the floors and antique azulejos depicting birds or flowers adorn kitchen and bathroom walls. The well equipped kitchen kept its original oven which once roasted twelve piglets to celebrate a village wedding. The cashier's office room became a stylish dining room and through the wrought iron bars on the window one may catch a glimpse of the shepherd and his fluffy flock as they go past the old track. Cobbled terraces amidst rose beds beckon to al fresco lunching. Thick stone walls, high ceilings and whispering fans keep the house amazingly cool during hot summer days; in wintertime log fires, art nouveau stoves and heaters keep the place snug and cosy. Summary: Corridor, living, dining, large kitchen, utility room, 3 bedrooms (2 double, 1 twin), 3 bathrooms(2 x bath, 1x shower). Area 220 m2.

Monte Serra straddles a ridge in a still unspoilt landscape of rolling hills overlooking the Algarve beaches basking in the sun 300 days a year. Views, peace and tranquillity! Nearby tracks will take you walking or biking in the hills but you can also choose from nearby sandy beaches, tennis courts, famous golf courses, medieval castles, the scenic Guadiana riverbanks, the Ria Formosa bird sanctuary or the old town of Tavira where country cooking or more sophisticated recipes are served at very palatable prices. The world-class treasures of Seville are an easy 90 minutes away. At just 2 kms, a small yet well stocked mini-market has fresh bread in the morning and most of the daily needs waiting on the shelves. Angela runs the shop. Ask her to arrange a wonderful home made ice cream cake or a free range cockerel for the pot. On Sundays enjoy the have-it-all gypsy market: from socks to donkeys, from cheese to fruit trees, from BBQ lunch to riding boots.
