Luxury villa overlooking Silves Gare, 10 Mins from Carvoeiro, gated heated pool, ping pong, pool table, basketball, goal, plus lots more, all private and exclusive.
Our villa is perfect for families of all ages, very private, safe and luxurious set in the heart of the Algarve, read all our reviews to get an insight and to see if it suits your party, if it does email us and we will put together a package to make your holiday really wonderful. The main pool can be heated and set to your perfect swimming temperature which makes holidays any time of year extra special.
The pools have discreet safety gates to protect toddlers and young children that are non swimmers, the added bonus is that there is a 25 metre garden area from the villa giving the extra protection of distance. The pool can be floodlit plus lighting throughout the beautiful gardens making evenings particularly spectacular, what could be better than to cook a fantastic meal on a huge charcoal BBQ with your own food and drink, then enjoy on a covered patio, after which those that are energetic can play ping pong or a game on the pool table or while away the evening under the stars playing cards or board games or chill in the summerhouse and just chat or play music as loud as you like, there are no other holidaymakers to upset (nor are there any to annoy you), then drift off to sleep in a King Size bedroom air conditioned to perfection.
During the day Basketball, Football, Boules, Badminton, Rifle shooting (air gun) etc re all available and all free and exclusively for you, note; the rifle shooting is in a separate area within our two and a half acre boundaries but away from the main groomed garden and must be supervised by a responsible adult after a brief induction, for safety reasons the rifle not stored within the villa.
Seating is in different areas throughout the garden complemented by a new poolside bar which is unstaffed and solely for your use, a relaxing glass of whatever takes your fancy and a midnight dip in the warm water sometimes becomes irresistible!
On arrival day a fabulous welcome pack greets all our guests and ensures you do not go to bed hungry or thirsty after a hard day travelling. A fully prepared BBQ ready for you to cook with charcoal laid under a scrupulously clean griddle is available as an optional extra, we give you a choice of quality food with succulent prime meat for main course served with beer or soft drinks plus pre select your preferred wine type, starter and dessert included, details on request.
We live nearby at the gatehouse and cannot oversee nor overhear any of your private area and never interfere except for essential cleaning and maintenance at regular timed intervals but we are on hand in case of breakdowns or you run out of something essential or maybe you need advice about best eateries for example, there are no uncaring agents to deal with, occasionally things go wrong we deal with them immediately.
The historic city of Silves is beautiful, once the capital of the Algarve a separate state to Portugal, the city is dominated by its castle, wander the cobbled streets, visit the market and try one of the many bars and cafes, here you can eat the most delicious Chicken Piri Piri that tastes so delicious and it's nothing like the copied version of Nandos sold in the UK.
Luckily one of the best restaurants in the Algarve the famous O'Barradas (great for celebratory meals) is only a short stroll away or one minute by car, lovely fish and veal.
Carvoeiro with its busy nightlife and the beach is 10 mins by car, favourite beaches include Albandeira, Benagil and Praia da Marinha, all are stunningly dramatically beautiful and away from the tourist traps. Our coakstline between Armacao de Pera and Praia da Rocha is the most beautiful in the Algarve, possibly the world, there are breathtaking cliff top walks and hidden coves to explore along with an abundance of restaurants to sample.
Golf; three courses within 5 minutes, Silves, Gramacho and Val da Pinta, lots more within a 15 minute radius.
Waterparks; the brilliant Slide and Splash is 5 mins away, also very good is Aqualand 8 mins away, check them out online.
Finally we know the best local restaurants where a 3 course meal with half a litre of wine and coffee can be had for under £10!
About The Owner
The owners Peter and Linda,
Are a couple of old grannies that moved to Portugal in 2002 and have both fallen in love with the Silves area and the local people, our three lads and six grandchildren live in the UK.
The Owner purchased this villa in 2002
Why The Owner chose Silves region
We are very fortunate that one of the best restaurants in the Algarve, the O'Barradas is just a five minute stroll, serving quality food and wine.
Another almost world famous restaurant is Rui Marisceira in Silves, shellfish to die for,essential to book in advance here, especially in high season. Hundreds of other restaurants abound the Algarve with prices to suit all pockets, best buy is always Prato do Dia (plate of the day) which normally has several choices of meat or fish.
The villa set on a hillside has three Portuguese neghbours, all kind and caring people, none of which can overlook or overhear any of your private space.
To sit on the veranda looking down the valley to Silves Gare or by the landscaped garden/pool area with a cup of tea in the morning is astonishingly beautiful.
What makes this villa unique
The villa.
Was purpose built which opened in 2006 to exacting standards with meticulous attention to detail. It has been thought thru very carefully with aid of hindsight from our own holidays in years past. Everything is designed for families with children to have a fabulous time with plenty of games all free.
The owners live nearby and will never intrude guests privacy but on hand 24/7 if anything should go wrong or to give advice on local places and events.
Similarly we know the places to avoid for example those restaurants that serve food and does not give value for money, your holiday is important to us.
The heated pools and gardens - are kept scrupulously clean, Linda’s love of plants makes the garden a sight to see, her love of animals is evident in the mini pets corner.
Guestbook comments from the owner
'We have just come back from the most amazing holiday, I could not recommend this Villa and its hosts, Peter and Linda, enough. The villa is huge, immaculate, 5 star!'
'It looks expensive, but is not really, as it sleeps 8+ so between 4 couples you are in 5 star for less. They have cots, highchairs + lots of toys for kids, games for adults and are so friendly and accommodating. They have the balance perfect, they totally leave you alone unless you approach them for advice or a chat.'
'Anyway I shall shut up and if you ever want a Villa holiday to die for this is the place. G and I are already talking about going back next year.' Louise + Graham Wheeler.
'The holiday was a great success….agreed by all, and that’s thanks to you both for the standard of the villa, its facilities and your kindness. We wouldn’t have done anything different other than stay longer' Steve Dodd

Beautiful modern villa.
Beautiful modern villa, excellent facilities, great pool, bbq area, pool table etc
Upon arrival we were greeted by Peter & Linda, a lovely, friendly couple, who then took us on a tour of the villa which we could call home for the next 10 days... immaculately clean, and a lovely welcome pack including steak, beer, wine and even breakfast!
Peter & Linda were never imposing, but were there if you needed anything, and were full off useful information and recommendations, such as the local restaurant and water park, both excellent.
Overall we had a fantastic holiday, very relaxing, in a great villa, with great friends and lovely owners, couldn't of asked for more. 10/10
Excellent villa with lovely owners
My friend and I booked to stay here as a joint 40th birthday celebration with our families. Peter and Linda kept us updated regularly and on arrival gave us a very warm welcome including a great welcome pack to get us started on day one. We recommend the Argentinian steaks, they were sublime! During our 10 night stay we had the most amazing time. The pool was great fun and a very welcome place to cool off in. Peter and Linda were never imposing and were on hand for any questions. Important stuff like the best red wine recommendations were very helpful ! The pool table was also a great addition and my friend and I spent many an evening having some games and a cold beer. Overall, an immaculately clean villa with great facilities, pretty garden setting and two lovely owners . Thanks Peter and Linda, we hope one day we can return!
Absolutely amazing!!!
The villa is of the highest standards in all areas.. we were a family of 5 adults & 3 children and there was more than enough room for us all..
we arrived early to drop off our bags and were greeted by the villa owners Peter & Linda and that's were the fun began!!
We had a full tour of the villa and grounds with everything explained in detail.. every room was immaculate and of a very high standard all round.. the outside areas were all kept tidy and maintained every day by Peter & Linda.. when we arrived they had left a welcome pack which had enough food and drink to see us through to the following day, it was outstanding for a welcome pack!! Argentinian rib eye steak was a massive crowd pleaser!!! Nothing was too much trouble from the minute we got there.. Peter & Linda live close by but never intruded or interfered just always there if you needed any help..
Just a short distance away is an outstanding Portuguese restaurant "Barradas" it's definitely worth a visit.. beautiful food and lovely wine from their own vineyard..
All in all this is one of the best villas I have stayed in and will definitely be returning in the future..
Thanks again to Peter & Linda for letting us stay in your villa.. you are 1st class hosts and we look forward to a few more glasses of wine on the veranda!!!
Absolutely stunning villa set in wonderful grounds
Just returned from a weeks stay and had an amazing time. Our party consisted of 8 people (5 adults, 3 kids @ ages, 18 months, 3 and 10) and everyone loved the villa. The 2 pools are brilliant and to have the kids pool as an extra made things a lot easier/safer for us. Pool area is gated which was real peace of mind knowing that the kids couldn't access without adult assistance. The villa and grounds were immaculate and so clean, the facilities provided truly make it a home from home experience. Lots to do for all ages and kept everyone entertained all day. The location is great, about 35 min to the airport and near a large supermarket and water park. We will definitely be returning and have already recommended the villa to friends/family. A final note for the owners, Peter and Linda are fantastic, they cannot do enough to help from the point of making the enquiry/booking, through your stay and to the point you leave. They provided the upmost privacy during our stay but were also fantastic company when invited to join us for an evening drink on occasion. A lovely couple who we look forward to seeing again. Thanks again, Scott and family. x
Brilliant villa and excellent hosts
We were 2 families of 4 who enjoyed a marvellous stay at the villa. The villa was spacious, stylish, immaculately clean and well furnished/equipped. The garden and pool area were also great and above expectations. Peter and Linda were excellent hosts; never imposing yet always available to answer questions etc. They also organised an extremely impressive welcome package upon arrival.
We would recommend this villa.
We would also recommend the local restaurant (Barradas). Excellent food and great (and reasonable) house wines
Highly Recommend this stunning villa
I used the previous reviews to inform my decision about reserving this property for our holiday and everything stated already is true: the villa is stunning! The owners Peter and Linda are the most genuine and hospitable hosts where their only intention is to ensure guests have a brilliant holiday. We feel extremely fortunate to have been lucky enough to stay here and be spoilt with their attention to detail.
The location is perfect for families being so private, allowing children of all ages to make as much noise as they want in and around the pools or the gardens/football/swings/table tennis area. For adults, the privacy can be truly appreciated once the children have gone to bed...special garden and pool lighting make the many outside areas quite beautiful. A late night dip is amazing.
The villa itself is beautifully decorated, spacious and immaculately clean with everything needed to provide a fantastic experience.
This was our first time staying here and will not be our last - loved it! Hated leaving.
Thank you again for allowing us to experience your beautiful villa, for all the extra thought you demonstrated to ensure we had a great break but most importantly, for your kindness and hospitality. This was an amazing holiday and just what we needed...thank you so much for everything.
Please take care, will book soon, all of the Goddards.
Location
Coast/Beach:
Nearest beach Carvoeiro 10 mins by car, hundreds of other beaches all very close, our particular stretch of coastline is dramatically beautiful, certainly the best in the Algarve and contains probably the best clifftop walks to be had anywhere in the world.
Travel:

A host of other restaurants some ridiculously cheap for example a 3 course meal with half a litre of wine & coffee included for 8.50 euros,many within a 10 minute drive.
Further Details:
Free fabulous welcome pack, minimum contents are tea, coffee, sugar, milk, bread, butter, ham, cheese, jam, croissants, lemonade, wine, beer, chocolate, crisps, eggs, bacon, baked beans, tomatoes, cereal, orange juice, apple juice and much more, all the ingredients are top quality and you should have no need to rush to the shops or restaurants, just chill out and enjoy.
