This ground floor apartment in ‘Casa do Largo’ – is a splendid blend of old and new. The old manor house has been fully restored, with taste and attention to detail, to create three apartments. With an ever changing view over the river Gilão where brightly painted fishing boats jostle against the summer ferry boats and fisherman untangle their nets and stack lobster pots. Sail along the river and across the Ria Formosa to the famous Island of Tavira with its wide open beaches and clear sparkling ocean. There are lots of restaurants to choose from all selling fresh fish caught locally. This apartment is also ideal for winter breaks too as there is a wood burning stove and still plenty to do in the mostly warm and sunny winter months. At the rear of the property is a private south-facing courtyard garden with swimming pool (approx. 7x3m), sun-loungers and a shaded dining area; ideal for that all important ‘alfresco dining’.
