About the host
Hosted by Ann Byron
We've been living near Tavira for many years, both retired architects. We owned a little house in the country near Tavira which rented for holiday lets. We fell in love with this little town house, Casa Branca, and its 'downtown' location, uniquely located in this little tree'd square, and are using it for our family and friends, and for holiday rentals.
Why they chose this property
Excellent Location, refurbished to a high standard, in a very charming and friendly neighbourhood. We love Tavira which is quite unique, little changed over the past 25 years since we have known it, and the perfect place to unwind and relax,
What makes this property unique
Location - the little square with orange trees, very peaceful and safe, close to shops, bars and restaurants, the River, and great summer events in the Praca Republica, and various churches.
Beaches - Pristine Blue flag beaches, Ria Formosa lagoon, with its unique vegetation and birdlife.
Culture - summer music and dance festivals, markets, art and exhibitions.
Food and Drink. Famous for its mediterranean diet of local fish locally sourced fruit, vegetables, olive oil, and wine. Good restaurants very reasonably priced. Come and enjoy a gourmet break.
