Golda, Garry, Angeline and Alan, August 2006 Dear
Sheila, Having just spent 8 wonderful relaxing days &
nights at Casa das Figueiras, i wish on behalf of our
group, to congratulate you for creating such an oasis
of tranquility away from the maelstrom which is 'real
life'. We all said it was one of the best holidays any
of us could remember. The villa itself provided rustic
homeliness with an individual charm. Its location is ideal
for that get away from it all feeling. The pool was stunning.
With four dining areas outside and one inside we were
spoilt for choice, in the end we dined in them all. The
garden was superb. It ticked all the boxes and we could
not of asked for anything more. we hope to return in 2007.
Thank you
We really enjoyed our stay. The villa was in such a beautiful, peaceful location that we relaxed instantly. We would have liked to have stayed for another week! The size of the pool allowed us all to play games together. We loved the location, being close to the village with easy access to the coast. Many thanks for a wonderful holiday.

We all said it was one of the best holidays any of us could remember. Dear Sheila, Just to let you know we had a great time. Jim was very taken with the house and the quaintness of it. We had great walks and took a stroll down the road beside the house and a local woman came out to us and walked us back up the road talking all the time and we hadn't a clue what she was saying a pity. We laughed about it. Pam & Jim Sept 09
Casa das Figueiras was wonderful. The setting is superb - so quiet and private and totally relaxing. The house and garden are comfortable and equipped with everything you could need. We really enjoyed foraging for wood and reading in front of the fire of an evening after a day's walking or at the beach. We had a thoroughly enjoyable time.

"Roses in the algarve!!! and of course, bougainvillea, oleander and jasmine, etc. All these surrounding the swimming pool in the glorious gardens Casa das Figueiras. The villa overlooks natural fields nestled within the peaceful countryside of the Algarve. Over the years, I've studied many a script and learned a few new songs in the peace of this delightful villa. I have also shared many family and social gatherings with friends in the lovely reception areas. Actress Anita Harris, 2006.
