About this property

Villa Pocilgo

Villa Pocilgo stands on the site of the original pigsties, next to the main house, Casa Velha, where owners reside. It features a very bright living room with open fireplace and two windows, two full size seating/sleeping divans, one small double bed-settee and a fitted kitchenette/diner, leading to a bathroom and to a large double bedroom. Outside there is a terrace featuring a pergola partly covered in grape producing vines, a built-in barbeque at one end and a dining table, large parasol and chairs at the other end. Ideal for romantic alfresco dining. It looks across a small Mediterranean garden to a lawn area, a lake (biological swimming-pool) and open land covered in almond and fig trees, with the ocean as a backdrop. The view from all rooms and terrace is panoramic and quite beautiful.

The property is a small farm located on a protected piece of land, between the Boavista Golf Resort, and the ocean. There are three houses on the grounds: Casa Velha, the original farmhouse, family home not for rental. Villa Pocilgo, a charming and cozy 1 bedroom cottage (max. 4 occupants) with open fireplace, next to Casa Velha, with its own terrace and BBQ and sharing the same amazing views across the biological swimming-pool and the gardens, through fig and almond trees and wild fennel, to the sea, . And Villa Celeiro, a very spacious 2 bedroom split-level villa (max. 6 occupants), with mezzanine, its own garden with lawn, rockery and pine and almond trees.
One can walk along the cliff path, after crossing the land, either left to Praia de Porto de Mós, or right towards Praia da Luz. The very large biological pool, shared by the 3 houses, looks like a natural lake and is a favourite with most children! It is also a great attraction for migrating birds etc...

Winter break
The house is perfect for a couple, wouldn’t have changed anything. The garden is beautiful and leads to the cliff tops with lovely walks east and west. With orchids and birds in the garden it was perfect for the naturalist in me to enjoy. Simon was helpful and friendly. Just a really lovey time for us both.

Absolute Empfehlung
Traumhafte ruhige Lage zwischen Lagos und Luz, und damit perfekte Ausgangslage für eine Wanderung entlang der Klippen. Schön angelegtes Grundstück, so dass man gerne auch vor Ort verweilt und den Tag am Badeteich genießt. Sehr netter Kontakt mit den Vermietern. Alles bestes und daher eine absolute Empfehlung!

Gemütliches Haus
Wir haben den Urlaub genossen. Die Aussicht war sehr schön. Eine ruhige und familiäre Atmosphäre und tolle Gastgeber. Das Haus ist ezwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber sehr sauber. Als Gast muss man Hunde und Katzen mögen. Die Tiere dürfen im Garten frei laufen. Wir mögen Tiere, daher war es für uns kein Problem. Unsere Kinder haben mit den Tieren gerne gespielt. Der Teich war sauber und erfrischend.
