4 Bedroom, 4 Bathroom Villa with Own Pool in Private Valley | Villa in Monchique
4 Bedroom Villa in Barracao, Monchique
This superb villa is tucked away in its own secluded valley in the picturesque, Serra de Monchique, the Monchique mountain range. But, being in the low foothills it is not at all remote with its driveway off the Portimao to Monchique Road. There are three restaurants just a few metres from the gates, yet at the house, it is easy to believe you are alone in the world. This truly magical spot with its palm trees and beautiful mimosas in the private garden around the pool has a pretty stream running though the land and you can enjoy your own private woodland walk along the river bank.
The the beauty spot and spa village of Caldas de Monchique is just 2km up the road and the mountain village of Monchique is about 10 minutes by car while the big fishing port of Portimao with lots of nightlife is only about 20 minutes away. The beach resorts of Praia da Rocha, Ferragudo and Alvor are also in the same area.
The villa has four bedrooms, four bathrooms (2 with baths that have shower attachments, 1 with a hydrotherapy shower unit and 1 with a standard shower cubicle). Three bedrooms have balconies, while at ground level there are two patios, one of them connected to a new wooden deck with ample outdoor furniture for everyone and an attractive fire-pit. The pool area has sunbeds and a large barbecue. Indoors, the main living room is a huge open plan area with with comfortable seating for everyone and a 55" smart TV. For cooler times of year there is a wood burning stove and a supply of logs. The separate dining room also has a wood burner and French doors open directly onto the patio and sun deck, which which also has direct access to the kitchen, so it is perfect for al-fresco dining.
For shopping, Monchique has an excellent Intermarche supermarket and numerous small shops, while the large town of Portimao has every type of shop from shopping malls and hypermarkets down to tiny businesses in the back streets. Buses stop close to our gates for Monchique or Portimao, but a car is recommended for convenience.
The villa offers you a very private and quiet holiday while being centrally located. There are several good golf courses within about 20 minutes by car and also some spectacular beaches about the same distance away. Nearby, there are two interesting Portuguese Pottery shops and also the Parque da Mina historic farm park.
* Internet & WiFi is provided free to our guests via a fibre broadband connection which also provides cable television. In the event of a service failure, we will do all we can to get a speedy repair, but this is entirely in the hands of the telecoms company. Our large satellite dish picks up UK television, but it is operating at the extreme range of the UK service. In the event of a programme loss we will call out the local engineers but we cannot guarantee UK programmes.
Quinta da Mimosa is located in the foothills of the beautiful 3000ft Monchique mountains, but as it is only about 350 feet above sea level it is not up in the clouds nor 'out in the sticks'.
In August 2018, there were serious forest fires in the Monchique area. Luckily, Quinta da Mimosa was safe from this mainly because it does not have lots of pine or eucalyptus trees nearby and it also gets protection from the stream. Also, the mimosa trees do not burn so easily as other species. New growth is already hiding most of the damage to the forest areas and thousands of new trees have been planted, using more fire resistant varieties.
If you enjoy walking, the footpaths from the property leading to trails that cover the whole Monchique eco zone are worth exploring. Quite a strenuous effort is needed for some of the tracks which are quite rough, but if you are fit enough it is a good experience and one benefit of the fires is that they did "open up" the views where previously the forest had been very overgrown.
