Anne and
Nick would like to welcome you to our 2 bedroom Algarve
country cottage just an 8 minute drive to the old Moorish
capital of Silves, offering Bed & Breakfast in the
Algarve or full self-catering facilities.
This is
the perfect cottage for those who want to explore the
real Algarve.... for walking holidays, bird watching,
cycling or just relaxing.
We live
in an adjacent cottage and in the B&B cottage - Casa
Velha - have two double letting bedrooms, each with a
double bed and own en-suite shower-room.
Both rooms
have ceiling fans but we must point out that as this is
a traditional Algarvian longhouse, with walls up to 2ft
thick, it keeps its cool in the summer and warmth in the
winter...you'll rarely need the fans.
You can
use the kitchen to make your tea and coffee...squeeze
orange juice..or prepare a G 'n T if that's more your
taste!
For most
days from April to October breakfast is served on our
beautiful terrace underneath the vine.
We offer a full continental breakfast with fresh fruit,
breads, cheese, local honey and so on - you won't go out
for the day hungry!
And for
a small extra charge we are also delighted to prepare
a packed lunch for guests.
We have a menu to suit all tastes - including wine or beer
to make it a proper Algarve picnic.
The lounge,
for the use of our guests only, has sat tv, radio and
CD player - and guests are welcome to relax here.
We also have lots of books (about 200 at the last count!)
, board games etc.
Guests who
visit this peaceful location are usually looking for somewhere
to switch off - and it couldn't fit the bill better for
that.
But it is also a fantastic location for those who want to
walk or cycle in the stunning countryside. We are just a few
minutes from access to a stretch of the newly completed Algarve
Way - the cross Algarve walking route. We'll be happy to pick
you up from the end of your day's walk and take you to the
start of the next leg.
We also
have bikes for hire for a nominal fee - please book in
advance.
If you really
can't leave work at home we can arrange to allow you to
check your emails for just a small extra charge. Mobile
phones work very well at Quinta das Uvas.
Of course
our pool is for the use of guests at any time.
Quinta das
Uvas really is a home from home in a beautiful part of
the Algarve and we look forward to welcoming you to join
us for a relaxing stay in our very own little piece of
paradise.
As we offer our B & B clients a quiet place to contemplate
and relax we are sorry to say that we don't accept children
on our Bed & Breakfast basis.
However, subject to availability, families are welcome
to rent the full cottage on a self-catering basis
.-

We speak English, un peu Français,
ein bisschen Deutsch and um poco Portuguès!
