Property Description

Quinta Japonica is a private villa (with large pool)set in the Algarvian countryside. It is situated on a hill (reputedly hand made by the Romans) 3km from Sao Bartholemeu de Messines - a small country market town. The villa has a large private swimming pool set in a landscaped garden with small seating areas for those who wish to Get away from it all or to curl up with a book. The garden in total is approx. 5 acres, part is used for growing a selection of organic fruit trees and olives, some areas are landscaped and others left natural. There is an ornamental lake with water lillies, goldfish, doves, ducks and turtles. There are seating areas on the island and around the lake. The area surrounding the villa is ideal for walking, bird watching, photography, sketching or just observing the local inhabitants carrying out their daily tasks in much the same way as their ancestors did many years ago. A car is essential to get the most out of your holiday. The larger tourist towns of Albufeira, Portimao and Vilamoura can be reached within 20-40 minutes. Faro and Lagos a little longer. We are situated 50 minutes from Faro airport. The villa has a large selection of games, videos, a radio cassette CD player should you wish to bring your own music collection.
