Casa Mira

Three bedroom family owned villa situated just outside the medieval town of Silves. Situated in the semi-rural countryside but close to all amenities and a 20 minute drive to some of the Algarve's most famous beaches and water parks.

The villa is set in its own private gardens and benefits from a south facing balcony from the master bedroom, a roof terrace and a private palm fringed swimming pool and solarium. The villa benefits from air conditioning for the warmer summer months and electric heating and a traditional log burner for the cooler winter months. There are three large bedrooms all with large built in wardrobes. The air conditioned master bedroom on the first floor has a large en suite bathroom with an enclosed shower unit and plenty of storage. The two additional bedrooms on the ground floor are currently awaiting the installation of air conditioning units but fans are provided and windows can be left open as they are covered with a fly screen. They have a family bathroom between.

The west facing solarium and pool area provide ample sunshine and long lasting warmth into the evenings. The lush tropical gardens have been thoughtfully planted and beautifully maintained for your enjoyment. Behind the main garden and pool area is a large fully fenced field which is ideal for playing games in. This is not a nondescript apartment block or hotel room but a place with all the privacy and space you could want. Return from the beaches in the late afternoon to air conditioning, a drink by the pool and a little more effortless relaxation.

The historic town of Silves is approximately a 5 minutes drive by car where there are supermarkets, numerous bars, renowned restaurants and shops. Two big water parks (Slide and Splash and Aqualand) are within a 15 minutes drive, and Zoo Marine for the whole family within a 20 minutes drive. The Algarve Shopping Centre at Guia, just 25 minutes drive away, offers great High Street shops, cinemas and restaurants. The villa is an ideal base for walking, cycling, horse riding, surfing, bird watching and tennis holidays or just chilling out.

The villa also benefits from being central to many golf courses in the central Algarve region. Most notable are the Pestana Silves Golf and the beautiful Ocianico Faldo courses are all within a short drive. Other nearby courses include: Pinta Golf Course, Amendoeira Golf Resort, Morgado Golf, Ocianico O'Connor Jnr. There is also a Par 9 course at Vale de Milho just outside Carvoeiro which is suitable for families. Discounted green fees and special packages are available on many courses.

There is a friendly multi lingual British lady who will be on hand to assist you when necessary. She'll never intrude on your privacy but is on hand to help out 24/7 if anything goes wrong.

A Welcome Food Pack can also be provided for you if required for a small extra charge, so you don't need to rush straight out to the shops or restaurant on arrival, just drop your bags, chill out and enjoy. Baby cot, stair-gate and high chair can be provided by prior arrangement. A mobile phone number is available 24 hours a day during your stay for emergency calls.
