A perfect place to stay
This villa is one of the best we’ve stayed in. The pool is lovely and there’s even a lawn area to sit in the shade. We had lots of fun evening meals outside. The villa itself is in a peaceful spot and much larger than you expect with comfortable bedrooms and a large sitting room. The area has lots of interesting place not just beaches. Honestly we’ve had a wonderful family holiday and I don’t think we could have found a better place.

Great pool in hills with views
Lovely house with lots of space and a great pool for adult kids (and paddling pool for small ones) Good to be up in the hills with a breeze when it's hot, but easy to get to Olhao and Tavira for great food, shops and ferries to the beaches. Angie was very communicative and some late night arrival provisions were hugely appreciated.

An authentic Portuguese experience
We found this property very comfortable and convenient. It is located well away from the built-up areas of the Algarve but the coastal towns are within easy reach. The swimming pool is excellent. The rooms and the garden are very pleasant too.

Quinta las Pedras
We have had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful villa , very private and peaceful . Fab pool and outdoor space to chill with a glass of wine and star watch .. inside was very spacious and comfortable with all you need including a comfy bed 🙂. A great little cafe with drinks and snacks is only a short walk away and of course all the wonderful places to visit in the Algarve are within easy driving distance . We all thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at the charming , welcoming Quinta las Pedros and finally I would like to thank the host Angie for having us all xxxx we would love to return .

Superbly private
We felt very fortunate to be able to stay in this very private villa with a superb pool and outside space, overlooking fantastic views across the valley. A very comfortable traditonal farmhouse, with everything you need for a great holiday. There is a small, friendly cafe bar a short level walk away. Very central for all of the Algarve's hot spots. Angie was excellent at accommodating our change of plans and her communications were outstanding, quick to respond and always friendly. We loved meeting Pedro the gardener on his tractor and David who was super friendly. Thankyou for a lovely stay in Portugal

Take me back!
If you are looking for a holiday ‘away from it all’, surrounded by stunning natural beauty this is the place. The views are immense and the garden flowers are stunning. The kids spent all day in the pool which was great fun. The house is quirky, cool and comfortable. Action is not far away if you want beach life and ‘Slide and Splash’ water park was a good day out (for the kids anyway!!) Angie was always at hand and willing to help with any questions. Thank you Angie and John!

Lovely pool area
We had a nice stay at the villa. The pool is a really good size and we were glad that we paid a bit extra for it to be heated. Angie was a brilliant host and was always on hard to respond to any queries. It would be helpful to have a folder at the villa with emergency contacts for local drs, pharmacy, dentist etc and more information on the local area (e.g places to visit and recommended places to eat out). As mentioned in other reviews, the villa could do with some updating. The patio furniture is quite old and weather beaten. The bathrooms need updating with more efficient showers. As the villa is in a rural area, you can sometimes hear nearby animals but it is mostly a quiet and relaxing location. We managed to visit a few places in the Algarve. The villa is in a less touristy part of Portugal which suited us well.

Superb holidays in a beautiful house
I can not praise our holidays enough. Everything from the first email contact with our lovely host Angie to the villa, pool, travel tips was absolutely perfect. Very easy and fast communication. All my 10000 questions were answered with much patience and knowledge:)! The house as such is beautiful and super clean. There was an added bonus of a maid service with fresh towels and sheets halfway through our stay, which we didn't expect! Much appreciated! And also our first breakfast essentials as we arrived late at night. So nice! The area is lovely, short drives to the most stunning beaches. Lovely towns and villages are also nearby. We had no idea how beautiful Portugal is and will be back!!!!!! :)

A lovely rural idyll (with luxury heated swimming pool).
A fantastic (and spacious) house that feels remote, calm, and picturesque. The building itself has space where you need it (a great high-ceilinged lounge), a good annex-like room upstairs for teenagers to hide away in, and some great facilities. The kitchen is a little tight (this is a proper farmhouse conversion) but you get used it to and there are numerous build barbies for outside cooking. The pool was super warm, a good size, and quite deep. The neighborhood feels very rural, you're halfway up a mountain (well, very big hill), and there are some amazing views and lovely peaceful walks. Coms with the owner were great - some helpful notes, direction (it is quite hard to find in the dark), and everything was sorted very smoothly. We were there for nearly two weeks and will be recommending the house to friends who want the benefits of being near Faro, while not feeling they are part of the hustle and bustle of resort life.

Belle location dans un endroit tres calme, équipements de la maison un peu obsolètes,c est domage car cela altère le jugement d'ensemble. (cafetières, plaques de gaz hors usage changée au bout de 5 jours, frigo anciens , porte congélateur ne ferme pas), vaisselle dans placard , salle. Parasol abîmés et usagers, matelas des bains de soleils vetustes, et sales , tables et chaises de terrasses a rafraîchir. il faut un coup de neuf.

Loved being up in hills, away from it all where we could relax by the pool, enjoy the views, bbq the wonderful fish we bought at Loule and Olhau markets and of course drink lots of great wine - all without being disturbed by anyone. We were lucky to have perfect weather too. It was a great holiday.

Absolutely beautiful Villa and surroundings
We stayed for 14 nights at this Villa and it was probably the nicest one that we have stayed in over the last few years of renting villas abroad. The owners communication was spot on and the facilities and surroundings were just perfect. We weren’t disturbed during our stay which was wonderful as we like to have peace and quiet when we are away . We paid extra for the pool to be heated which was glorious. (Well worth it ) , even though the weather was fantastic. I would like to thank the owner for recommending a great restaurant Lagar de Mesquita , which we went to twice while we were there . Will definitely be going back soon .

Une adresse unique
Une adresse à garder ! C’est de loin notre plus belle location. Une vraie “ Quinta” à la portugaise, un charme fou. L’endroit est merveilleux, avec une vue imprenable sur les oliviers et les bougainvilliers de l’Algarve. L’endroit est idéal pour le repos, sans vis à vis et très calme. La maison est très bien agencée, spacieuse, avec tout le nécessaire pour passer de bonnes vacances. La literie est d’excellente qualité et la piscine est top pour faire des longueurs. Les propriétaires sont très réactifs et le personnel ( dame de ménage et jardinier) très chaleureux. Un vrai petit coin de Paradis.

This was a lovely private villa. Very spacious and comfortable. Perfectly placed for privacy peace and quiet. The pool was lovely and much enjoyed by my youngest daughter. Gorgeous views of the mountains and on the other side the sea. Well away from the busy tourist spots but with the car it was still easy to get around. Very relaxing just what we'd hoped for.

About the host

Hosted by Angie Davies

Host profile image
I am Angie, I bought our Quinta (farm) in 2004.
It took us about 3 years to get our house ready for rental.
We have been renting now since 2007.
Prior to having our Quinta we had a property on the coast which became too busy for us.
We love being where we are and manage to visit our house about 5/6 times a year.
Prior to retiring I flew with a major airline and when in England we live in the Cotswolds

Why they chose this property

We wanted to get away from the crowds and this farmhouse, tucked away in the real Portugal had everything we wanted.
We love the view, the tranquility and the people.

What makes this property unique

Our house is cool in the summer with its thick stone walls.
We have lovely breezes in the summer and azure skies.
We can walk to our coffee bar and sit and watch the world go by, we can visit a local restaurant and eat freshly caught fish.
We can stay at home and swim, sunbathe and then when
the sun goes down, switch the pool lights on and stargaze
whilst we have a drink.
Will we eat out, we will barbeque, perhaps we will eat in,?
It does not really matter.
We just love to unwind............... we hope you will too.
