Quinta do Sapo is a spacious and secluded country villa in an elevated location with stunning views out to the hills and orange groves and to the city of Silves in the distance. The villa is completely private and is surrounded by peaceful countryside. There are a number of local Portuguese restaurants in the immediate vicinity for those who want to sample traditional Portuguese life. An immediate flavour of the peaceful rural location is gained from the drive to the villa, the last section winding through orange orchards along a small unmade road. The villa is situated in the countryside just 5 kilometres from Silves,the ancient Moorish capital of the Algarve, where you will find an excellent selection of restaurants, bars and shopping, with a sense of the region's history to be found at the castle, the battlements of which can be seen from the villa terraces and are floodlit at night, the cathedral and in the narrow winding streets. This villa is ideal for those who wish to spend a quiet holiday away from the noise and frustrations of everyday life, but at the same time be within easy reach of life's amenities.
