About this property
Modern villa with private pool and stunning views down to Monte Clerigo beach
Sandhills is a well maintained, secluded villa with a private pool. It has 3 light and airy bedrooms (2 double, one with en-suite bathroom, and one twin) and a family bathroom. There is a bright spacious living room, dining area and well equipped kitchen. It can comfortably sleep 6 with cots available for infants.
Being a modern build, Sandhills is an open plan, single storey villa, with doors opening directly onto the terrace area from the back bedrooms and kitchen allowing easy flow to the outside terrace and pool area. It is equipped with broadband, smart TV, Bluray player, satellite channels and a selection of DVDs, books and games, as well as a stereo/CD player with aux output. The kitchen includes everything you will need for your holiday from coffee machine, blender, large fridge freezer, dishwasher, all cooking equipment and serving dishes and utensils. A washing machine is available in the garage.
Sandhills is perfectly located (within the Costa Vicentina National Park), for both an active holiday or a quiet retreat. Situated on the edge of the Vale de Telha urbanisation, it is close to local shops, and Monte Clerigo village and beach is just 2km away. What's more it is just a short drive from many other amazing local beaches, amenities, shops and restaurants. The area is an incredible location for any ability level of surfing, body boarding, cycling, rock climbing, wake boarding, kite surfing or horse riding. Or you can simply discover the un-spoilt splendour of this area by walking along the Rota Vicentina, which is a long distance path (350km in total) along the SW coast of Portugal, part of which is the Fishermen's Trail which passes infront of the house.
Aljezur is a small town just 10 minute drive away and has a large supermarket with fresh meat/fish counter, municipal market with fresh fish and vegetables and many restaurants, cafes and surf and gift shops.
Directions
Take N120 north of Lagos. As you approach Aljezur, turn left towards Monte Clerigo and Arrifana. At T junction, turn right and continue for 7km to Monte Clerigo. Pass through the village and take the beach road up out of the village. Sandhills is 2km from the beach on the right hand side.

About the host
Hosted by Cheryl Haddy

We are the Frasers and we bought our Portuguese home in the Spring 2014, after countless fabulous family holidays in the area.
We've been coming here for all our family life. The kids are now 23 and 20 and still love it as much as we do. There is always something for them to do, whether it is surfing, biking, rock climbing, lounging by the pool, or some days we will head south and go to a water park, coasteering or spend a day on the south coast where the beaches are very different.
What we like most about the area is it's similarity to Devon (where we live) and Cornwall, but with guaranteed sun!
The villa is the best we've stayed in as it flows so well from inside to outside with double doors from both back bedrooms to the patio and pool area. The patio is wonderful sun trap, completely secluded and protected from any wind.

Why they chose this property
We were looking for a property in the vicinity, but this one stood out against everything else we'd seen or stayed in, due to its simplicity, its layout and use of space. Charlie's parents bought a property near Faro in the 70s and Charlie spent many summers in the area. Today, the west coast is like the south coast was 50 years ago. But the beauty is that we are within a national park and the area is protected from mass development.
What makes this property unique
We like sitting out at the front early in the morning and looking at and listening to the sea. We can spend all day at the villa and then love to head down to the beach at 4pm for a surf.
We love watching our kids safely surfing in the sea.
We love the sweet smell of eucalyptus as we approach the area from Lagos.
