Villa Monte da Calma - Paderne, Algarve, Portugal

Something of a rural oasis, this large and charming villa nestles in a peaceful country location away from the bustle of Albufeira but still conveniently close to the resort.

Approached along a private driveway, the property has been recently refurbished and is decorated in rustic Portuguese fashion with sloping wooden ceilings, traditional furnishings and farmhouse style ornaments and artefacts dotted around. The pretty tiled kitchen continues the country theme with pine fittings and strategically placed antique pots and pans adding to the sense of rusticity. One of the highlights of the property is the large games room, which makes it an excellent option for larger families with older children.

Another impressive feature is the large and sunny terraced garden and pool area. Offering copious space for numerous sunloungers to be placed around the water's edge, it includes a superb dining terrace complete with private bar and barbecue, all adding to the excuses to stay at home and while away the days soaking up the sun.

The location of the villa is perfect for discovering the local countryside and also for days out in Albufeira, with its shops restaurants and beaches around 20 minutes drive away. Paderne itself also has an array of restaurants, shops and minimarkets.
