Photos and Description of the Santo Estevao vacation farmhouse rental
Pool, gardens, orchards, privacy, near beaches, safe for children, pet friendly

A vast conspiracy to make you happy… Straddling a ridge in an unspoiled landscape, overlooking the beaches basking in the sun, tucked away at the end of a long access road, MONTE SERRA offers peace and quiet. Children are SAFE; a gated wall seals off the pool area and there is no traffic but for yourself, the neighbour or the shepherd with his fluffy flock.

Some 30 acres of centuries-old trees ensure privacy to 4 separate accommodations. The place is vast; guests seldom bump into each other but if they do, they tend to meet a like-minded soul. The grounds hide peaceful corners for some quiet reading or a chat that had been waiting for a serene moment. Gardens and terraces with gorgeous ocean views invite to high tea, sun downers or a festive dinner. Take a refreshing dive, seek the solace of a pergola’s shade, stroll through the orchards and pick a grapefruit for breakfast or, at night, enjoy the starry skies and scents of ”dama da noite”, a flower that awakens when the sun has set.

WELLNESS: HEALTHCARE: bioshop and professional foot care

YOGA, BEAUTYCARE, MASSAGE: ask your host or look up our guide 'WHAT TO DO .... and WHERE':

FLORA & FAUNA: Go and see birds, dolphins, flamingoes and more..... The Ria Formosa sanctuary is a jewel; ask your host for guided tours by biologists or look up our leaflet 'WHAT TO DO .... and WHERE'.

SPORTS: Tennis, deep sea fishing, sailing or surfing, ask or look up our leaflet 'WHAT TO DO .... and WHERE'.

Details for White Stables/ Estabulo Branco [4p(+2)] 3 Bedrooms, Sleeps 6, 2 Bathrooms

The oldest part of Monte Serra ... Worn stone troughs, rustic floor boards, crooked beams keeping up the roof, an oval window placed way up in the wall, all testify of the past when this was the shelter for sheep and mules. Today, a very private terrace facing East with lovely views of the hills and the ocean beckons almost year-round, to enjoy breakfast in the morning sun or an “al fresco” lunch under a fragrant canopy of vines, kiwi and passionflower. Cooking, dining and dolce farniente areas are part of a single huge open plan space. Children love the stage for their cabaret performance and the secret passage to their own den. On the mezzanine, colored glass windows enliven the parents’ suite. Come spring and they’ll wake up looking at a huge oleander blooming with flowers set afire by the morning sun. Summary: 130 m2/2450 sqft for 2~6p. Ground floor (100m2) with open plan cooking/living/dining area, bedroom (twin beds), bathroom; mezzanine (30m2) with master bedroom suite.

What to do? Choose a famous golf course, a medieval castle, the scenic GUADIANA riverbanks, the old town of TAVIRA where country cooking or sophisticated recipes are served at palatable prices, a guided boat tour to the fascinating RIA FORMOSA wildlife sanctuary to see dolphins, flamingos and more … or Seville’s world-class treasures, an easy 90 min away. You are just 7 km north of Fuzeta. From this fishermen village a launch will take you across the lagoon to lovely Armona Island for “a day on the beach”. Walk a little and this beach is deserted!

Angela's small yet well-stocked mini-market 2 km away has fresh bread at 9am and most of the daily necessities on the shelves. Ask her a free-range cockerel for the pot or a homemade ice cream cake for a birthday party. On weekends, enjoy a bustling farmers’ market or a has-it-all gypsy fair: socks, donkeys, cheese, riding boots, fruit trees or BBQ lunch.

A nice place to be in peace

5 of 5
Submitted: January 5, 2009 Stayed: August 2008
A very nice place a few km from the sea, in the middle of the monuntains. Excelent views, quiet and peaceful for us, you can listen anything but birds singing and the silent of the real world, wonderful. At night you can see millions of shining stars so near, it seems you can touch it...The perfect place to go for a different holidays.

Gardens, pool, acres of centuries old trees, everything marvellous. It where very clean and well-maintained. The White Stables also very nice.

Another Quinta Monte Serra best thing´s has been the ownwer, very kind, friendly, always ready to help you.

We felt it like at home, a place to go and stay...

Quinta Monte Serra es un afortunado sitio para disfrutar, de sus vistas, de su silencio, de su tranquilidad, de su amable gente.La propiedad, tanto exterior como interiormente está muy cuidada, todo en perfecta armonía con su entorno natural. Hay un estupendo cenador que invita sentarse al atardecer y disfrutar de la estupenda vista al mar.

Ideal para los amantes de los paseos matutinos, un entorno para desconectar.

Quinta Monte Serra no sería lo mismo sin su propietario, una persona fantástica que nos transmitió su ilusión, sus ganas de agradar y ayudar en lo posible. Un absoluto toque diferenciador...

Quinta Monte Serra, un sitio al que hay que volver...
