Our self-catering properties in Portugal are in western Algarve. This is the unspoiled, little-discovered face of this deservedly well-loved region, and feels far removed from the popular resorts further east. From the self-catering apartments of the Algarve Quinta, you can explore both the westernmost coastline, with its weathered, honey-coloured cliffs and secluded bays, and the silent inland hills, across which are scattered traditional villages. Both these areas lend themselves to leisurely walking, and you will return home after a holiday at our Algarve self-catering properties feeling you have discovered a well-kept secret.
