Tranquil location, close to beaches and towns.
Drumlin Villa is a Luxurious villa with it's own private pool situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in the fabulous area of Quinta do Sobral. The villa is located on a small hill, hence the name Drumlin, from the Irish word droimnin or "little ridge". The Villa is very spacious with lots of natural light. The interior is fitted to a very high standard with modern decor throughout.
The Villa is located an easy 45 minute Motorway drive from Faro Airport and is only 10 minutes to the Spanish border.
The villa offers the perfect setting for exploring the Eastern Algarve. Within a 15 minute drive there are 6 golf courses to choose from including the prestigious course of Monte Rei Golf designed by Jack Nicklaus.
Your closest town is Castro Marim, a typically Portuguese town with a lovely castle and quaint shops. The nearest beach, (Praia Verde) is 3km away from the Villa
The towns of Tavira and Vila Real de Santo Antonio are within easy reach and are great for an evening stroll and a leisurely drink at one of the many street cafés.
For your reassurance Drumlin Villa has an "Alojamento Local" (letting licence) and is registered with the Portuguese authorities to ensure that specific safety standards and regulations are met. It is a legal requirement that the number (####/AL) be displayed in the property description.

About Nuala
We fell in love with the Eastern Algarve after our first visit here and we then made it our aim to buy our own villa. We are delighted to have done so in January 2015. It is now being let and we have made every effort to ensure that the property is of the highest standard for letting.
We know how nice it is to arrive at a villa and think the photographs didn't do it justice. Hopefully, you will come to our villa and feel the same.

Nuala purchased this villa in 2015
Why Nuala chose Castro Marim
We looked at many properties but when we saw Drumlin Villa, we knew it was the one for us. The amount of space and the lovely setting appealed to us.
We have two children and a large family, so the size of the villa was important, as was the large outdoor space and swimming pool.
The villa is in a very peaceful area but supermarkets and restaurants are easily accessible, so we have the best of both worlds. We hope you enjoy it.
What makes this villa unique
Ideally located only 50 minutes from Faro airport. It’s very quiet with really nice views over the nature reserve.
It’s also only a few minutes drive to the great beach at Praia Verde. This is a favourite beach, you can rent a bed and umbrella from the restaurant Pezinhos N’Areia – the restaurant has lovely views over the beach.
The Restuarante Panaramico next door has excellent reviews and is a sister restaurant of O Infante.

A perfect family holiday
We stayed at the beautiful Drumlin Villa for two weeks, it was a family holiday for 7 people aged between 12 and 64.
Everyone had a great time and there was everything we needed in the villa.
We had excellent service from Kerry and Lee upon arrival and were given good advice on supermarkets restaurants etc.
Communication with Nuala was excellent and every query answered efficiently and precise. The pool was cleaned twice per week and was a welcome respite from the Portuguese heat. The jacuzzi was a lovely way to relax and watch the sunset each evening.
I've already recommended the villa to family and friends and will book it again on my next visit to Portugal.
Many thanks to all for the great time we had.
Paul Rachel and Cody Edmunds from Kent.
Gold medal for relaxtion
Let's start with initial inquiries and the booking. Big thanks to Nuala who answered all questions promptly and the booking was smooth and spot on. On arrival at the airport rang Kerry who was waiting at the villa and our pre arranged welcome pack with every item we asked for in cupboards and fridge. Bang on. Kerry and Ian told us everything we needed to know and left us to it. Now onto the villa and all I need to say is WOW. It was just what we all wanted and there was 10 of us. Everything that was stated was there and if we needed anything Kerry or Ian were there. We didn't hire a car which was our decision but got a taxi firm from nearby Castro Marim to ferry us round in 2 taxis for a few euros. Minimum fuss. Back to the villa and the pool and jacuzzi. Absolutely first class. It was cleaned twice a week whilst we were there. The villa itself was spotless. Not a lot left to say only big thanks to Kerry and Ian for their help and thank you to Nuala for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
Superb well equipped Villa, ideal family holiday.
We had a great time staying at this beautiful and very well equipped Villa (the second fridge in the games area/garage greatly welcome) for our two weeks. We all really enjoyed the pool, especially since it was so hot whilst we were there. The kitchen had everything we needed and the ice “on tap” was great.
Your local agents were fantastic and quick to respond on any issue or queries that we had.
Beaches accessible by 10 min car ride. Lots of points of interest such as Castro Marim, Cacela Velha, Monte Gordo, Vila Real de Santo Antonio, Ayamonte(Spain).
Shops and Supermarkets also within 10/15 min car ride. Extremely good fish restaurants, as well as your piri-piri chicken and burger joints, mainly in Vila Real and Monte Gordo.
Blown away... Such a gorgeous villa!
The villa was absolutely beautiful and spotless when we arrived! Plenty of fresh bath towels, beach towels and bed covers. The pictures do not do this villa any justice! The views from the villa are incredible and sun sets you can see are breathtaking. There was 9 of us that went and we honestly has the best holiday! There was something for all of us to do in the villa, whether it was playing pool, to cooking a bbq, to watching tv or sunbathing! We were not bored in the slightest. Nuala was such an amazing help, I was always emailing her with queries and questions and she got back to me straight away, very helpful indeed. I would 100% recommend this villa to everyone and we can't wait to go back. Would highly recommend getting a car to explore!
Excellent mid-term break
We booked the villa for a short break during the kids mid-term school holiday. The temperature was high enough for the kids to use the pool all week. The patio area is excellent and a real sun trap. We found the villa very comfortable and well equiped. The villa is close to Castro Marim, a charming old Portugese town and also close to the Spainish border (great for a day trip).
Fantastic villa for family holiday
We stayed for a family holiday with 6 adults and a 5 month old baby. The pictures and description on here don't do it justice it was much more than we had expected. What a beautiful villa and so well equipped.
It has 4 good sized double rooms. Having rooms downstairs next to the pool table room and having its own bathroom meant my son and his fiancé had some privacy which was good. The kitchen is stunning with everything you could possibly need and a well stocked food cupboard with basic items that made cooking easy. We loved the barbecue area and used this most nights. Loved time in the pool although was cold but we braved it each day and appreciated all the inflatables left there to use. Jo and Paul were lovely people and made the whole process from booking to leaving so easy. They went out of their way to bring a cot , high chair and baby chair to the villa for my grandson to use which was so helpful. The book with places to visit came in handy and we had a lovely celebration meal at the restaurant at the Praie Verde beach. All in all a perfect holiday and so sad we had to come home.
Location
If you fancy a change from relaxing around your private pool in the glorious sun you could always take a day trip to Seville. Seville is a pleasant 1.5 hour drive into Spain and an ideal location for a day trip. Amazing architecture, great bars and restaurants (fabulous Tapas) - not to mention the shopping. Explore the cobbled streets of the Santa Cruz quarter and the breathtaking Alcázar Palace or soak up the atmosphere on the banks of the Guadalquivir
If you want to experience the Spanish culture without venturing as far as Seville, you can get a ferry from Vila Real de Santo Antonio across to Ayamonte. It costs around €1.50 and takes about 10 minutes. There is a superb ice cream shop and a bustling square that is always lively. There are some nice shops and a great restaurant called La Puerta Ancha. – well worth a visit !
If you fancy something a bit more energetic, there is a zipline that goes across the river from Spain to Portugal; it goes from Sanlucar de Guadiana in Spain to Alcoutim in Portugal. You can drive up the IC27 to Alcoutim and get the ferry across, you are then met the the zipline operators –limitzero- on the other side. Very friendly bunch and great fun, Alcoutim is very nice as well for a 'post zipwire' lunch . (http://www.limitezero.com/en/la-tirolina/),
The Villa is within easy driving distance of lots of places!! Tavira is 20 minutes away heading West and is a quaint little down with cobbled streets, street cafes and bars and lots of great restaurants. You can also get a ferry from here to Isle de Tavira.
There are municipal markets throughout the Eastern Algarve where you can get fresh fish, meat, vegetables and fruit. Your nearest would be in Altura but the biggest and a great experience is the market in Vila Real de Santo Antonio, on the left as you enter the town - it is open early every day except Sunday and Monday.
Vila Real is great for a day out too with a nice marina, lots of good shops and an amazing Italian restaurant - details of which will be in the Guest Brochure in the villa.
Basically, there is something in the local area to suit everyone!
