Property info

Set in the beautiful Ria Formosa Nature Reserve and just 7 minutes away from the pretty local village of Moncarapacho.

Neighborhood info

We are located next to the village of Moncarapacho is a small country town in the middle of an area which is home to orange orchards and horticulture. It exudes a calm, unhurried atmosphere of people going about their business in a relaxed and friendly way. The ‘centre’ of Moncarapacho is a charming cobbled square alongside the church where you can sit and have a drink or a meal beneath the jacoranda and palm trees or though you may be made to jump by the church clock striking! The town offers all the basic facilities, including three good small supermarkets and a small local produce market. There are also several decent restaurants and plenty of pavement cafés. It has its own museum and a pink, arabic-style police station. Moncarapacho has a market on the first Saturday of each month. For four days in the summer it comes alive with a big agricultural market, complete with local cuisine, dancing and music, and everything for sale from baskets to tractors and in February for the ‘carnival’ which is really very good and is locally quite famous. Outside the town are the hills of Cerro de Cabeça and São Miguel, two wild areas in which you can walk and enjoy spectacular view
