The Quinta da Saudade…..“a beautiful place to stay”
– Nick Knowles, BBC Holiday Hit Squad
The Quinta da Saudade is a small British-run estate of privately owned villas occupying twenty-four acres just 5 miles west of Albufeira and 45 minutes drive from Faro airport.
Nestling in the peaceful country setting of an old hillside farm estate and set amid orange, almond and olive trees. The nearest beach is less than 2 miles away, with a magnificent stretch of sand, bounded by dunes where it’s always possible to escape the crowds, even in August. A range of beach bars and restaurants can be found along this long stretch of beach.
There are two swimming pools, a children´s play area, tennis court, restaurant and bar, mini-golf course, table tennis, a pool bar which is open in high season and petanque. There are riding stables with a lovely choice of horses for all abilities that can be taken out for gallops across the dunes and beach or slow hacks through the countryside.
Nearby there is a splendid 18-hole golf course where discounts may be available. There are many attractive country walks and a wetlands nature reserve nearby with a wealth of bird and plant life not commonly found in the UK such as Purple Heron, Little Bittern, Alpine Swift and many more. Also within 10 minutes are major attractions such as Zoomarine Water and Sea Life Park and Algarve Shopping Centre.
