VILLA 7B, QUINTA DA SAUDADE

Villa 7b is situated on the Quinta da Saudade.  The Quinta da Saudade is a small British-run estate of privately-owned villas.  It occupies approximately twenty-four acres about five miles west of Albufeira.

The Quinta nestles in the peaceful country setting of an old hillside farm estate.  It is surrounded by orange, almond and olive trees and is about forty-five minutes drive from the Airport at Faro.

The nearest beach is less than two miles away.  It is a magnificent long stretch of sand, bounded by dunes, where you can escape the crowds, even in August.

There are two swimming pools, a children’s play area and shallow pool.  The Quinta also has a tennis court, table tennis, petanque and crazy golf in the orchard.  On site is a restaurant and bar in the old farmhouse.  And there is a pool bar open throughout the day.

The Riding Stables at the Quinta da Saudade have some fabulous horses that are available for gallops across the dunes or slow hacks through the countryside.

There are attractive country walks in the vicinity and there is a wetlands nature reserve nearby with a wealth of bird and plant life not commonly found in the UK.  Purple Heron, Little Bittern, Alpine Swift, Bee Eater, Red Necked Night Jar, Azure Winged Magpie and more.
