Rural and tranquil

We stayed in Villa Paradyske at Easter time with two children aged 11 adn 9. The weather was very changeable but nevertheless we had a great time. Susie was extremely helpful - responding to all my many emails prior to arrival and advising us to bring clothes for every season! The villa was comfortable, clean and well equipped although chilly - which, if the weather had been hot, would have been very welcome. The pool was spotless and very inviting.
It is in a perfect location, peaceful and with beautiful views and yet only a few minutes from the elegant and historic Silves.
Susie helped us out with lots of suggestions of places to visit and things to do so we enjoyed some fabulous trips and great restaurants.
I would certainly recommend the villa for those looking for a more rural location but close to all that the Algarve has to offer.
Owner's Response: Hi Louise, Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review :) I fully take on board your comment about the villa being a bit chilly and have now purchased extra duvets and a couple of extra radiators for the winter months. We have had several guests stay during Winter over the past couple of years and it's not been a problem before, hence I was a little unprepared for the PARTICULARLY cold weather we had when you were here. The air con heating is working fine and it does warm the villa very nicely, but it takes a little time to warm up so the extra radiators will take the chill off until the air con heating kicks in. Apart from that, I'm glad everything else was to your satisfaction and that you and your family had an enjoyable holiday, despite the unseasonal bad weather. The Algarve is a gem of interesting places to explore which means there is plenty to do during periods of inclement weather. Luckily over here, rainy days usually give some periods of sunshine in between. I'm glad you found my "TO DO" list helpful and hope you will come again soon. Discounted prices always offered to returning guests :) Best wishes, Susie
