Villa with Private Pool

I live in England with my husband. We have 3 daughters, one-son-in law, 2 partners and 3 grandchildren . My back ground is in nursing and midwifery. Currently, I am project managing the restoration of a Georgian property circa 1800, for a change. I am also a counsellor for Pregnancy Choices, dealing with any issues surrounding pregnancy including unintended pregnancy, post-abortion, still birth, cot death and infertility. I am privileged enough to provide the childcare for our three grandchildren whilst their parents work.

We first visited this area in 1982. We had the 'Cabanhas Velhas' beach to ourselves. We completely fell in love with it then, as have the rest of our increasing family, and all our friends. We love the tranquillity and that it remains the least developed part of the Algarvian coast. It offers an opportunity to experience relatively untouched Portuguese culture. We are part of the Costa Vicente Nature Park, 80 km of coastline: an area of outstanding natural beauty where wildlife thrives. The inhabitants of Burgau village are warm and welcoming. They embrace children.

We are an excellent base to explore the region. It is good to know there is a cosmopolitan town nearby where the two environments contrast extremely well for all generations. Five minutes away, (400m) is our secluded sandy beach. We provide beach towels to keep your load light. The 'Blue Wave' beach bar does coffee from 10am and does excellent food and wine to to suit all pockets. It's a lovely setting for meals, particularly in the evenings, overlooking the sea. There are local restaurants and bars aplenty, eat in or take away. Various activities are all within easy proximity.
