The property is very well equipped and comfortable. The pool and gardens are fabulous and very peaceful. Located in a quiet area but also within easy reach of exploring different areas. Zeila and her family were very welcoming but also very discreet.
Property had all amenities and was clean and comfortable.
Garden was beautiful and the pool was lovely
Overall a quiet and relaxing stay,just as we had hoped for.
A very nice place to live👍 Nice inside and very nice outside area😄 We missed some cloths we could use in the kitchen to wash off the kitchen table and counters 😅 Other than that 10/10
Had a lovely stay. The villa was ideal for a peaceful holiday. Very well equipped. Would certainly recommend to others and hopefully we will stay there again Owners very friendly but not intrusive
Everything about this property was fantastic, from the well-stocked kitchen to the pool! Our host, Zelia, made us feel most welcome and was incredibly helpful. The beds were clean and comfortable, and the location was incredibly convenient for exploring Faro and the algarve.
A really lovely place. Especially the garden is really nice with lots and lots of different plants and trees to discover and of course the pool and a nice place to eat outside. The kitchen is very well equipped and the rooms are what they need to be.
Also very good communication by the owner.
We really enjoyed our stay at Casinha Leco Teco. It was the perfect location for our family to explore the Algarve and a nice relaxing rural area to enjoy in the evenings. We liked the pool and relaxing in the hammock, as well as the beautiful gardens. We will definitely recommend this location to others!
We stayed for 5 days and loved it. The Kids played outside or took a bath in the pool. Great spot for trips in the area (by car). We recommend Ilha de Tavira or the Beach Loule Velho. The Café Aromas perfeitos was perfect for coffee and icecream in the morning. We would definetly recommend to stay here! Thank you!!
Very nice and spacious place!
Check in was very easy, friendly - helpful host as well.
A lot of nice nature around. Friendly dog and cat, my kids enjoyed spend time with them.
Inside the house you can find everything what you need.
We was very happy, because there was warm and cozy even at the winter time.
House / Villa - Bordeira, Quinta das Raposeiras - FaroHouse with garden
Mon, 13 Mar - Tue, 28 Mar
The property was ideal for the 2 week stay my wife and I enjoyed in March 2023, and our hosts Mr and Mrs Marcos were most welcoming.
Situated in the countryside close to Bordeira the setting was both beautiful and extremely quiet. We were able to walk to nearby villages and eating places. Bordeira is also within driving distance of a variety of beaches and historic sites.
This tiny house with nice garden in a calm environment 20mins out of Faro is recommended for families. The pool makes it an occasion to pass a day (or afternoon) there when avoiding the busy coast.
Restaurants and supermarkets either close or a 10min car ride.
A quiet place apart from the Algarve touristic mile
We totally enjoyed our 14 days stay in this little condo. It is located in the countryside about half an our drive from downtown Faro. Ideal for trips along the Algarve, or the back country.
The owners live on the property as well, but they are very friendly and do not disturb your vacation. At this time of the year (end of April), the private pool was still a little bit cold, but during summer time, it would be an ideal place to spend time.
Overall, we can highly recomment Villa Bordeira!
Another fabulous week in this lovely cottage and its peaceful rural surroundings. Zeila our host was as accommodating as ever especially given our late flight and after midnight arrival time. The cottage was clean and well equiped with everything we needed and the king size bed although fairly firm was very comfortable. Swimming towels for the pool were also provided so you won't need to pack your own! Host lives next door but left us to our own devices but good to know she was there if there were any issues which there weren't. Have found a real gem here and will certainly be back again soon.
Zelia was a great hostess. So kind and thoughtful. Her little cottage was clean and well appointed. Shower was great, along with the patio area. Nice to sit outside in the evening with a glass of wine at the end of each day. Appreciated her house book. Explaining how everything functioned and info on surrounding towns and restaurants. We would definitely stay again up in this area, away from the hustle and bustle. Thanks Zelia!
Peaceful rural villa in well maintained garden setting
We enjoyed 10 restful peaceful days at Casinha Lecoteco. Everything we needed was provided and the limitations of Wi-fi and English TV channels was an additional bonus - a relief from 24 hour Brexit updates.
I was sorry that two local restaurants that we previously knew, Mac Jetes and Chez Malice, had closed but other local typical Portuguese restaurants were available close by at Bordeira and St Barbara de Nexes. The pink Palace Pousada Hotel at Estoi with the formal gardens is worth a visit at sunset.
I am sure we will return. Thank you Zelia.
Nous avons passé une semaine merveilleuse dans un cadre où la nature reflète l'esprit de l'Algarve. La maison est simple mais accueillante avec tout le nécessaire pour savourer l'ambiance du Portugal. Zélia est une hôte attentive et discrète, polyglotte de surcroit. Je recommande ce bel endroit pour ceux qui veulent profiter des charmes de cette région
