A Açoteia is located in a peaceful location 4 kms from the sea and 7 kms from Tavira, one of the most architecturally attractive towns in the Algarve, with origins dating back to around 2.000 BC. The area is popular for its beautiful unpopulated, sandy beaches that seem to go on forever, fields of orange trees, heavy with the scent of blossom, and houses with dazzling whitewashed walls and distinctive chimneys decorated to resemble fine lace. The only possible disturbance here could be the infrequent service from the small railway line which runs approximately 150 meters away from the property.
The property is set within a small plantation of fruit trees with distant views of the Ria Formosa estuary (a natural park in south-eastern Algarve). The grounds are totally enclosed, with a secure gate entrance, and thee villa is surrounded by decked terraces and a rock garden. The cascade swimming pool (10 x 4m) is accessed by Roman steps. Due to some unprotected drops around the swimming pool, this house is not suitable for families with toddlers.
The comfortable interiors are decorated in blue sea and sky colours, and the outdoor areas have been designed for enjoying the great Algarve weather. There is a shaded sitting/dining terrace with barbecue area on the ground floor, plus a covered roof terrace on the first floor. The master bedroom suite is on the ground floor and there are 2 further bedrooms upstairs (one twin and one with double bunks) sharing a bathroom. Both the master and twin bedrooms have mosquito nets over the beds and the house is fitted with ceiling fans and air-conditioning throughout. Further amenities include , satellite TV, DVD player, surround sound system and hair dryers in all the bathrooms. There is no telephone so guests would have to bring a mobile phone.
