The two bedroom apartments are all ground floor whilst the one bedroom apartments are on the upper level only (approx 18 steps).

Sagres

Sagres, the most south-westerly point in the Algarve and Europe, is relatively untouched by tourism and with spectacular, untamed scenery, is about the great outdoors. Visitors here have a wide range of nature-based activities to choose from and if you like walking, cycling, bird watching or fishing this really is the place for you.

There are several lovely beaches protected by high cliffs to explore and many footpaths to follow with stunning views - those from the lighthouse are quite breath-taking. This is also a popular place with surfers who come to ride the fabulous western Atlantic waves. With a comfortable year round temperature and some fantastic good value family restaurants to choose from - the fish and seafood are to die for - this is a great location to spend a relaxing and healthy winter.

The pretty and busy town of Lagos is only about a twenty minute drive and has an attractive old quarter, marina, good shopping, bars and restaurants. It is a year round resort and a good place to visit if you miss crowds.

Algarve, Portugal

With a year round balmy climate, it's no wonder the Algarve is Portugal's premier holiday destination. It has lots to see and do including many first class beaches and a rich interesting heritage as well as world renowned golf courses. And, even though it is heavily developed in places, away from the coast there are plenty of picturesque towns and villages to explore where daily life has hardly changed and commercialism doesn't exist.
