Villa Gabie SOL-36103

Surrounded by the sweeping Algarve countryside, it’ll be hard to tear yourself away from Villa Gabie. Nestled on a verdant slope, you’re wreathed by lush vineyards, olive groves, and pine woodlands, all backed by a soaring hilly landscape. The exteriors transport you back in time, with white stucco walls fringed with stone pillars and terracotta tiles. There’s some great character in the living room; it’s like a charming little jewellery box with its traditional stone fireplace, plump vintage sofas and antique décor. Tucked around the corner is the kitchen, featuring granite countertops that match perfectly with the wooden country-chic cabinetry and quaint tiled splashback. Serve up dinner in the charming dining area, with a rustic wooden dining table encircled by glass windows. Upstairs are two twin bedrooms and one spacious double bedroom, the perfect size for a small family sleeping up to six adults. 

The outside terrace provides a picture-perfect vantage point over the far-reaching countryside panoramas. Take a dip in the sparkling pool, where you can gaze out and admire distant views of the breathtaking rural landscape. Outside is a stone barbecue and a dining table for serving dinner in the warm, crisp rural air. With a wide porch that hugs the back of the villa, get comfy on the outdoor seating while looking out over the scenery. Any terrace wouldn’t be complete without a few sun loungers, positioned poolside so you can hop out and dry off in the sunshine. Located on a gentle hillside overlooking Vale da Parra, this spectacular villa is a tranquil home away from home. If you are tempted to leave this peaceful oasis, the white-sand beaches of Arrifes and Coelha are five minutes away. Further afield, you’ll find the lively resort towns of Galé and Albufeira, which are filled with excellent restaurants and lively bars.
