Also close-by, several natural lakes and walks to be discovered. The apartment is perfect for a couple (cot available upon request), and for those seeking rest and relaxation away from the crowds.

Iris M. from Falkensee
Magnificent
We stayed here as guests for almost 3 weeks in September and it was simply wonderful.
The apartment is superbly equipped, there was really nothing that we missed. Even different spices, an espresso maker, and all kitchen utensils were available. In addition, travel guides, games, books, and CDs.
The terrace was a dream, very private. The whole property is a true delight, beautifully planted and very inviting.
The constructed pond and the new pool (freshwater) make the vacation perfect. It was so nice to be able to swim a few laps in the lake in the morning and then have breakfast on the wonderful terrace.
Incredible tranquility awaits the guests, time stands still there and you can completely switch off from everyday life.
It is only a few minutes by car to a huge supermarket. Beautiful beaches and the surrounding towns are also recommended.
The hosts Martina and Peter are people like there are few. Warm, caring, and extremely friendly. You have absolute privacy, but if you have a concern, it will be taken care of immediately.
The apartment, as well as the whole property, is very clean, and the pool and sunbathing area by the lake are constantly cleaned.
For us, it was the best vacation accommodation we have ever had, and it is not excluded that we will spend our vacation there again.
We can recommend the vacation apartment without reservation.
If you are looking for peace and quiet, you will find it exactly there.

The description refers to our visit in 03/2022
- almost fully equipped, beautiful, cosy flat
- the kitchen has all the utensils you need for (more than) one holiday
- Bedroom with enough storage space, the mattresses pleasantly hard
- beautiful terrace with nice seating area (sun loungers directly in front of it in the garden)
- Property and garden = oasis of well-being (own beach at the lake with sunbeds and umbrellas)
- Accommodation outside any village, car required, parking spaces available
- nearby racetrack did not offer any noticeable background noise
We would like to give the following advice:
- Water from the tap is not drinking water
- Coffee machine available, bring your own ingredients
- Washing machine available, bring your own detergent
- Wood stove available, provides enough heat for the living and kitchen area, but not for the bathroom
But not for the bathroom
- the radiators were on for a few hours from 7 a.m. onwards
- Wood in the basket in front of the door was enough for the first days
- Lighter, tongs, shovel, poker were not available
- narrow shower with shower curtain, pleasantly hot if you don't take too long
- mobile heater for the last 3 days provided by the landlord, so the bathroom was warm
was warm
You can feel wonderfully comfortable and relax in this place. We would have too if a little more "care" had been taken. Asking is not our thing.

Absolute recommendation!
The two of us stayed in this great flat for 2 months
Peter and Martina are wonderful hosts who were always there when we needed something. The flat is well maintained, very clean and well equipped. You really have EVERYTHING you need, even for a longer period of time. Since it can get chilly in the evenings during the winter months, we were especially happy about the wood-burning stove.
The property and the garden are huge, very well maintained and a pure oasis of well-being to relax in. The absolute highlight is, of course, the large lake. Although we were not able to use it for swimming due to the mild temperatures, it was still a great eye-catcher for us every day and it makes this accommodation something really special. During our stay, we also had our dog with us, which was allowed to roam completely free on the entire property.
Since the accommodation is a bit outside, a car is definitely recommended. However, you can reach the beach in 15 minutes and the nearest shops in 7 minutes
Our conclusion: We had a great 2 months with Peter and Martina, for which we would like to thank them very much. We can really recommend this accommodation to anyone who likes to be in nature and yet wants to reach cities worth seeing such as Lagos and Portimão in a very short time.

Again and again with pleasure
We are repeat offenders. The accommodation is very well equipped, offers peace and quiet, a swimming lake and a wonderful garden.
It's a 15-minute drive to the long sandy beach and you can get lots of goodies right away.
Martina and Peter are careful and attentive hosts and we enjoy spending an evening together with them.
Our son (12 years old) also feels very comfortable.
