About this property

House in Relíquias, Alentejo with pool and views over the hills

Where the Alentejo plains meet the hills, lies the small typical village of Relíquias with its whitewashed houses, surrounded by cork oaks, holm oaks, olive trees and eucalyptus forests. The church of Relíquias (Nossa Senhora de Assunção) was built in the sixteenth century and the village was born around.

With stunning views of the property our house is part of a century-old house made of "taipa". At your disposal you have a house with two twin-bedded bedrooms, a living room with a sofa bed, a well equipped kitchenette, a bathroom and a large covered terrace. Outside we have a lot of space to play and relax. In the warm season you can enjoy our pool area, take a dip, sunbath or even a take a nap. We have a small children's playground, a trampoline, a small football pitch, volleyball/badminton net and a table tennis table. You can admire the fish in our small pond to the sound of cascading water, take a walk or bike ride to discover the village and its surroundings.

Within a radius of only 40 km you can find the beautiful beaches of the Alentejo, the dams Monte da Rocha and Santa Clara, the Mira River, the natural park Costa Vicentina and the small villages of Odemira, Vila Nova de Mil Fontes, and Zambujeira do Mar.

You can choose if you prefer to cook your meals in the kitchen pr on the grill. We have ice boxes, towels and parasols to lend. We can arrange transport from the Funcheira train station as well as Faro and Lisbon airports.

Parfait a refaire
Belle maison, très propre et très fonctionnelle piscine magnifique et très agréable, bien situé géographiquement pour visiter une bonne partie du Portugal. Marco est vraiment attentif et au petit soins avec nous, tout en étant discret. Seul petit regret manquerait la climatisation car il fait très chaud la nuit ! Mais Marco nous a emmener un ventilateur.😉Nous y retournerons avec grand plaisir.

Idyllic break from the hustle and bustle
This nice annex (to the main house) was ideal for our family of four to wind down after 4 days in Lisbon. Marco & Charlotte were very welcoming and provided thoughtful little extras like tea bags, a few herbs etc and tea towels to make life easier, especially being nicely away from it all. The kitchen is very well equipped with utensils (though the dishwasher wasn't working when we visited - soon to be fixed !) and there is a washing machine in the village €4 a wash. Everything was spotlessly clean throughout with lovely crisp bed linen. The area may be less visited than others but Reliquias is a beautifully kept village with lots of smiling locals returning our greetings. You can buy bread and fish from visiting vans at good prices. Very well designed swimming pool, our grown up children played in it like little kids and dad was able to get the lengths in. A table tennis table, trampoline and football goals all available along with a short walk up to seats on the hillside opposite to watch the sunset. Recommend the Onda restaurant a 2 minute walk round the corner for really good value, simple but plentiful food, served with a lot of smiles and patience at our scrambled translations! (Meal for 4 with drinks and deserts for €60)

Brilliant relaxing stay
We had a wonderful family holiday at Charlotte and Marcos place. The location is super peaceful and the pool and garden are both really lovely. We enjoyed trips to the nearby beaches (35/40mins) and towns and a day trip to Lisbon (2 hour drive). Highly recommend this place it’s fantastic x

Zeer aangename plek om tot rust te komen. Een wandeling door de tuin, de berg op, relaxen bij het zwembad en lekker eten in de veranda met mooie ondergaande zon. Wat wens je meer? Ideale plek om de mooie stranden nabij Vila Nova de Milfontes te ontdekken. Onze favoriete strand is Praia de Malhoa. Greet en Donald

Quiet, Relaxed and Clean
A true pearl in the deep Alentejo. The house is very well equipped. In addition to the welcome kit, basic items for cooking are available in the kitchen or on the barbequeue, allowing guests, who have just settled in, to start enjoying the facilities to the full. The house, the pool and all the surrounding spaces are pristine clean and maintained. The trees that surround the extra-sized swimming pool provide extra shades and a very relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. Marco & Charlotte were exceptional, with great communication, always helpful and available for suggestions.

Estadia 5*
Fomos conhecer a costa vicentina e decidimos ficar no MyHomeInReliquias... Não nos arrependemos nada :) a casa é o ideal embora a cozinha seja pequenina mas muito bem equipada, o terreno tem imenso espaço, com balizas para dar uns toques e um trampolim, a subida ao monte dá nos acesso a uma vista muito bonita, o lago com os peixes e as rãs têm o seu encanto e por último a piscina que é espetacular. Em nome de nós os quatro só me resta agradecer ao Marco e à Charlotte :)

Muito obrigada Charlotte e Marco pela recepção e pela vossa disponibilidade durante toda estadia. Parabéns pelo espaço bonito e muito bem cuidado! Adoramos tudo... a casa, a piscina, o terraço perfeito para as refeições com vista para o monte, os peixinhos e sapos no pequeno lago, a zona verde e equipada para brincadeiras, atrativa para os mais pequenos, mas também para adultos (os saltos no trampolim e a subida ao monte vai ficar na memória de todos!).... Mais uma vez obrigada e esperemos voltar em breve!

La propriété est calme et très agréable et les propriétaires très gentils et accueillants. La maison est propre et de nombreuses activités y sont prévues pour vous distraire ( piscine, ping pong, fléchettes, badmington, foot, jeux de société). Petit bémol la plage est à 3/4 d'heure de route mais de toute façon l'eau est froide autant rester à la piscine.

A pleasant surprise
Charlotte & Marco are dream hosts, they set us off for a fantastic relaxing family holiday. The property is fully equipped and located in a little charming village in the interior of Alentejo. The grounds surrounding the house are beautiful, vast and offer a great deal of privacy. The pictures in the ad do not make justice to the true character and allure of this place, this was one of those rare occasions when you expect something nice and get some awesome instead. Definitely an experience to repeat.
