Break Holidays House | your vacation home | your familly cottage @alentejo

A break! Holidays House is part of the olive fields that surround the beautiful city of Moura. It has pleasant outdoor spaces where the only sounds you hear are the birds and the sheep grazing in the adjacent fields. The two fireplaces with stoves guarantee a pleasant temperature on the coldest days of the year, providing a cozy, familiar and pleasant climate around the fire. A glass of Alentejo red and a traditional snack accompanied with the fantastic Alentejo bread take all our senses to delirium.
The huge swimming pool makes for the delight of young and old on the hottest days of the year. The barbecue allows an incursion in the discovery of flavors of black pigs Alentejo or traditionally Portuguese, grilled sardines, always following with the unique wine from Alentejo. The interiors are simple but comfortable with air conditioning in all bedrooms and living room. It has two heat exchangers in the living room and kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with fridge, freezer, microwave, electric oven, ceramic hob, dishwasher and washing machine, toaster and coffee maker.
During your stay at this villa, you'll be within walking distance of Moura Castle. The villa includes amenities such as a private pool and a kitchen.
  • Air-conditioned villa with private pool, kitchen, and washing machine
  • Onsite recreation includes a playground
  • Just a 5-minute drive from Jardim Dr Santiago & Spa and a few minutes from Castelo
This villa offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

Wonderful stay, great house and pool.
Spacious house with enormous pool. Peaceful rural location, a short drive to Moura. House was very clean and well equipped. It was serviced half way through our stay. One of the best houses we have rented.

A family holiday to treasure
We were relieved on arrival to discover Fransisco & Margarida's villa was even bigger and more beautiful than the photos suggested, as was the fabulous pool (for sole use) which we played, exercised, relaxed and cooled down in at every opportunity. There were four of us and our two little girls chose a bedroom each and so we all had loads of space, even though we could have easily brought other family members or friends to share with. The living spaces are wonderfully comfortable and everything is extremely well equipped and the villa is very secluded and private, despite our hosts only living a few moments walk away. The town of Moura is very close by car and has plenty of shops and restaurants to choose from. Franscisco and Margarida are wonderful, friendly and helpful hosts, giving us lots of useful hints and tips on where to visit and translating names of the local wildlife, foods and sights. We went on a fantastic sunset canoe trip with Franscisco and his colleague on the Alqueva lake and learned lots more about the history of this beautiful region. During the week we visited the museum "Bolotel" at Portel and learned all about the cork (cortiça) and the special ecosystem of the cork forest area (the "montado"). We took a drive up a tiny winding track up to a fabulous viewpoint (and chapel) at São Pedro and surveyed the habitat with the cork trees all around. Another day we drove almost to the Spanish border to a small village called São Pedro do Corval to visit some of the many "olaria" (potteries) there. To reach this, we drove through Reguengos de Monsaraz with vineyards gracing every strip of land, contrasting with the vast plantations of olive trees we had seen elsewhere. We should have also got the children to count storks as it is fun to spot all the stork nests elevated up on high chimney pots or anything tall enough to host them. We also saw their graceful black and white forms riding the thermals on many occasions. For our family, this villa couldn't have been in a better location. The drive from Faro was worth the effort to enjoy this fabulous villa in a superb yet clearly lesser known region. Thank you Fransisco and Margarida. We hope to come and stay again.

The setting was beautiful and the property is of a really high standard
We’ve just spent a fabulous 2 weeks enjoying Francesco and margarita’s wonderful hospitality. As previously mentioned the photos don’t do this property justice. The setting is beautiful and the star is the wonderful pool. We never stopped marvelling that we had that huge pool all to ourselves. Francesco was really helpful but also very respectful of our privacy. There was no hard sell to do the activities his company offers but the times we went to the lake he was extremely kind and generous of his time. It is a very quiet area so if you are looking for a bustling town and lively night life then this isn’t the area for you. However, if you are looking for a more authentic Portugal with outdoor adventure then we couldn’t recommend this property highly enough. In the words of our kids, “best holiday ever!!” Thank you Francesco and Margarita x

It was the best holiday property we've ever stayed in
It was spacious, very clean and well equipped. All furniture was good quality and comfortable. The pool was roughly 20 x 10 metres and lovely. The owners are genuinely friendly and could not have been more helpful The regions tourist facilities are good but not intrusive. It is a rural area so it's not for clubbers. Restaurants tend to offer good quality regional foods at reasonable prices. The huge freshwater lake provides a variety of activities some of which are run by the property owner. Altogether three generations of our family had one of the best holidays of its type that we've ever had

Local, proprietários e estadia espetaculares
Adoramos a estadia. Dias fabulosos de muito calor. Casa super bem equipada mobilada e limpa. Proprietários super simpáticos e prestáveis. Adoramos, (principalmente a nossa filha de seis anos), dois burrinhos (Paulinho e Slimani) que todos os dias nos iam cumprimentar. Apenas deixo duas ressalvas, a cozinha poderia ter um ar condicionado e as esteiras deviam ter colchão pois passado um bocado são bastante desconfortáveis. Se fizerem estas pequenas melhorias a casa passaria de excelente para perfeita. Esperamos regressar para o ano pois adoramos a estadia. Recomendo plenamente.

Prachtige villa met enorm zwembad
Uitstekende villa en zwembad op een zeer rustige en prachtige locatie in de Alentejo. Je woont alleen , maar je bent toch op enkele minuten in het stadje Moura , daar is alles voorhanden winkels/bakkers/restaurants. De eigenaars sparen kosten , noch moeite om de gasten 24/24 bij te staan met tips en oplossingen. Sterke aanrader voor mensen die het echte Portugal willen ontdekken.

Espaço e pessoas espectaculares
A casa estava muito bem equipada, tudo limpo, com uma grande piscina e foi óptima para uma semana entre amigos com crianças. A piscina tem um muro e gradeamento a isolar da casa, o que é bom para segurança das crianças, no entanto como fica num descampado ao sair da água sentíamos frio em dias de vento. Fica muito próximo do centro de Moura. O Francisco e a Margarida foram impecáveis, sempre acessíveis, ajudaram-nos a encontrar sítios específicos em Moura. Usufruímos da aula de SUP gratuita com eles e ainda fizemos uma aula com eles de wakeboard na albufeira do Alqueva. Ao lado da casa tem um cavalinho que nos espreitava na piscina de vez em quando e a pipoca (uma cadela labrador muito simpática) nos fez umas visitas também.
