Casa da Oliveira

Casa da Oliveira details

Casa da Oliveira has a pretty special setting. It’s surrounded by countryside in the hamlet of Val d’Eguas, so it’s got its fair share of peace and quiet. Plus, Almancil is just a five-minute drive away, while the sun-drenched beaches of Quinta Do Lago can be reached in ten. If you want a real Portuguese shopping experience, meanwhile, the Saturday morning gypsy markets in Loule are ten minutes in the car.

Back at the villa, star billing goes to the outdoor space. There’s a kidney-shaped swimming pool to cool off in, and you’ve got loungers lining the surrounding terrace. Privacy comes courtesy of a curtain of mature shrubs that circles the villa.

Inside, the property is smart and modern. A neutral colour scheme and big windows throughout make the place feel spacious, while finishing touches like a feature fireplace and plump cushions add a homely vibe.

When it comes to mealtimes, this place is particularly well equipped. Alongside the kitchen staples you’ll find a handful of time-saving devices including a dishwasher and a coffee-maker. And if you want to dine al fresco, there’s a barbecue outside.
