This is our 3rd year running at this amazing villa. The draw for us is the absolute, peace, tranquillity and privacy. The villa is surrounded by a cork forest, although totally private with no other properties or people around, it is not isolated, as a 10 minute walk takes you into a village to the very friendly village shop. Arganil is only a 15 minute drive to larger supermarkets, restaurants, pharmacy banks etc. The fish man calls twice a week if required, and Lucy and Caroline call to check the pool, keep the garden up to scratch, change all the bed linen and towels etc. all with minimal intrusion. They are also a great source of information of beautiful places to visit. The villa itself is so spacious and comfortable
, has lots of outdoor space. The pool is set against a backdrop of the mountains , which is a sheer joy. Should respite be needed from the weather a large air conditioned pool house houses a bar, games and a pool table. There is also a huge outdoor fully equipped kitchen with bbq, pizza oven as well as a range cooker with two ovens.
The accommodation itself has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, all the rooms are huge, one being air conditioned. The bathrooms are beautifully refurbished , very modern and spacious. Two of the bedrooms have walk in wardrobes, while another has a kitchenette, sitting area and still has masses of space. Outside has many many sitting and eating areas and at night is illuminated by numerous beautiful lanterns,
which make it very magical. We absolutely adore this place and look forward to having many more happy memories of Portugal.
