The villa was a really good size, rooms bigger than expected, with everything you need for a week from home. We enjoy the location of Alvor for walking nd birdwatching, and was close to the town for eating out in the evenings. It was colder for November and did find the house a little cold upstairs, having to use the real fire downstairs on a few evenings. The outside areas are spacious prticularly the roof terrace with good views, but again maybe limited use on the colder, wet November days. The stairs to the roof terrace would benefit from hand rails, particularly after the rain, the stairs were very slippy. A great family sized villa in a less tourist area (which is what we like) but with a good selection of bars, restaurants, shops and supermarket all in easy walking distance.
