About the host
Hosted by John Gilbert

We bought this property 18 years ago when the kids were small. It's always been our summer home and we have many fond memories. This is the first summer we are renting the property to guests. We hope you enjoy it as much as we have.
Why they chose this property
The Algarve has an amazing climate. We chose this area as it's easily accessible from the UK. Quinta Fernando is in the countryside yet it's only 20 minutes from amazing beaches and Faro airport.
What makes this property unique
Quinta Fernando is an old Quinta, it's away from the busy beach resorts they are close by if you want to visit. The countryside views from the terrace truly are stunning.
