We are interested in a long term swap (maybe 3/4 months) over the summer period next year (2020). If you like the idea of a lovely warm summer in the South of Portugal we would be interested in talking with you. We have 2 well behaved dogs that we would want to bring with us so of course are more than happy to have your dog(s) here - and we also have a cat that we would want to leave behind if possible. The cat is obviously used to being with dogs.
We own this lovely villa north of Faro. We have no immediate neighbours and everyone who visits is struck by the peace and quiet here. Some days we hear no more than the woodpecker in the field next door. We are, however, only about 1.5 kilometers from the nearest village that has all everyday amenities including a supermarket. Faro is about 10 kilometers south of us as is the lovely coast of the Algarve. The house consists of a large lounge diner, a well equipped kitchen and two bedrooms - one double with en suite and a twin bedded room and a small study area. Probably more importantly we have plenty of patio space to enjoy the lovely weather here and a swimming pool to cool down in.
We live in the countryside near Santa Barbara de Nexe which is a small town/ large village. There are supermarkets, petrol stations, a bank and several coffee shops and restaurants in the village. If you did not drive the village provides everything you need but due to our location we would recommend a car to reach all the very beautiful beaches and towns of the Algarve. Public transport is not plentiful in the Algarve!
The Algarve is famous for its golf courses. The closest is about a 15 minute drive away.
