About the host
Hosted by Nuala
We fell in love with the Eastern Algarve after our first visit here and we then made it our aim to buy our own villa. We are delighted to have done so in January 2015. It is now being let and we have made every effort to ensure that the property is of the highest standard for letting. We know how nice it is to arrive at a villa and think the photographs didn't do it justice. Hopefully, you will come to our villa and feel the same.
Why they chose this property
We looked at many properties but when we saw Drumlin Villa, we knew it was the one for us. The amount of space and the lovely setting appealed to us. We have two children and a large family, so the size of the villa was important, as was the large outdoor space and swimming pool. The villa is in a very peaceful area but supermarkets and restaurants are easily accessible, so we have the best of both worlds. We hope you enjoy it.
What makes this property unique
Drumlin Villa is ideally located only 50 minutes from Faro airport. It’s very quiet with really nice views over the nature reserve. It’s also only a few minutes drive to the great beach at Praia Verde. You can rent a bed and umbrella from the restaurant Pezinhos N’Areia – the restaurant has lovely views over the beach. The Restuarante Panaramico next door has excellent reviews and is a sister restaurant of O Infante.
