casa west algarve - portugal

This is the time of year I dream of taking off to someplace with warm sandy beaches. I came across this place and it looks like it would fit the bill.

Casa West Algarve offers rentals of houses in the area of Algarve.

Located in the south-west Portugal, in the natural park, it is a place where nature and beaches are simply breath-taking.

The Area

Rocky contour of high cliffs plunging into the foaming sea, beautiful long beaches, broad dunes and tiny splits between the rocks are very typical of this area. the Natural Park streaches for 80 km along the coast, between Odeceixe and Burgau. Among all its richnesses and its charm, it offers a lanscape little changed by time.

Activities and Interesting Facts

Rich fauna includes foxes, wild boars, badgers, wildcats and rabbits, but mainly the birds are a large attraction of the Coast Saint Vincent. In splits and marshes live various species like hérons, cigognes, kingfishers. The rocks of the coast shelter doves of rock, gulls, magpies and falcons. There are more than thirty species of birds amongst which are blackbirds and nightingales whose song is widely heard thoughout the region.

It’s located in Alfambras, near Aljezur. At 10 min of Aljezur’s beaches (Amoreira, Monte clérigo, Arrifana, Figueras)

It consists of one open bedroom with double bed and a bedroom with bunk bed, a bathroom with shower, a fully equiped kitchen (furnace, refrigirator, washing-machine, cooker), a living room with TV and DVD.

An outside area consist of deckchairs, bbq in a lovely private garden.
