The Experience
Up, up, up between eucalyptus trees, glimpsing distant Algarve beaches, to your white-washed cottage huddled against the mountains. A wisteria-and-vine-hung terrace sets the tone for this comfortably rustic hideaway: terracotta tiled floors, chestnuts beams, white rough-plaster walls. Rocking chairs cluster around a stone fireplace in the living room while the kitchen is cheery with Portuguese pottery and a scrubbed dining table. A marble table on the terrace, too, for al fresco eating. There’s a little beamed ground-floor bedroom with a pretty view and two rooms upstairs, one (for romantics), light and airy with its own door to the terrace and steps to the garden; perfect for long lazy breakfasts or star-gazing with a drink in hand. There’s a small shower room and larger bathroom to share; white and simple. Plenty to do for the active in and around Monchique – hiking, canoeing, cycling, beaches – and pretty Silves for the curious. Or doze around the pool in the garden, lush with dappled shade and fruit trees; birdsong and crickets the only sounds. You are in an area of outstanding natural beauty. Magical.

The pool was a real highlight, as was the fresh water from the spring. The location and views are simply stunning. The cleaning lady was lovely and very helpful. We hope that many others will share what is a unique experience.

Thank you so much for hosting us in your beautiful farmhouse. Our family had such a wonderful time-the setting was peaceful, the house was comfortable and well-equipped, and we loved waking up to those stunning views each morning. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and already hoping to return one day!

We had a lovely holiday at Quinta Da Relva. We appreciated the peaceful location and the beauty of the surroundings. The pool was a great asset and there was plenty of shade on hot days. We ate extremely well and found the supermarket in Monchique very useful. Our best meals out were at the little Tapas Bar in Monchique.

We had another lovely week staying in the beautiful Monchique area. It`s so great at springtime with all the flowers in full bloom - especially in the garden! We obtained some walking route leaflets from the tourist office and walked the `Pecurso das Hortas `circular walk - which was stunning and not too steep. We took a day as we stopped and started to admire the views! We also managed to summit Foia mountain which was more challenging- but the view of the coast from the top made it worth it. Walking the Fisherman's Path on the cliffs of the west coast was another unforgettable experience!

Location
The neighbourhood
Local points of interest from Diana Hudson
- .Stunning mountain location 35 mins from deserted beaches beaches. Children under 10 have all their activities paid for by us
- Walk, paint, cycle, spot rare flora and fauna, canoe, write, snooze, pick flowers, surf, decorate the Christmas tree, snuggle up by the fire, read, all the books, squeeze oranges, chase butterfies. It's all yours...
- A traditional farmhouse, a cosy family home, big open fire and hayloft, lovingly restored, a labour of love over 31 years. Our visitors book says 'Paradise' 'Heaven' and 'The best holiday, anywhere, ever!' and 'How did all those stars get there'?
- Complete healthy holiday. Organic food almost impossible to avoid. Produce travels metres not miles; swim in spring water, lie in the garden eating fruit as it drops off the trees; drink wine from the local adega., A massage by the pool maybe.
- Beachlife is 35 mins away in either direction. Choose from the south coast, small secluded coves and boat trips; spot yachts in the marina, or go west, through foothills and forests for big beaches, national park, spot dolphins and walk the cliff paths.

The house is in a very beautiful environment, the outside is very pleasant and the large swimming pool is conducive to relaxation and games for children. Excellent restaurants nearby and hiking trails that are fairly easily accessible with very beautiful views. The interior is spacious and rather pleasant. A few remarks if I may: the house is somewhat in its original state,if that is if that's the goal, no worries, but if you expect a little more comfort and modernity, it can disappoint. Diana has always been very responsive and available to answer questions.
