We are the Frasers and we bought our Portuguese home in the Spring 2014, after countless fabulous family holidays in the area.
We've been coming here for all our family life. The kids are now 23 and 20 and still love it as much as we do. There is always something for them to do, whether it is surfing, biking, rock climbing, lounging by the pool, or some days we will head south and go to a water park, coasteering or spend a day on the south coast where the beaches are very different.
What we like most about the area is it's similarity to Devon (where we live) and Cornwall, but with guaranteed sun!
The villa is the best we've stayed in as it flows so well from inside to outside with double doors from both back bedrooms to the patio and pool area. The patio is wonderful sun trap, completely secluded and protected from any wind.
