Corte Vidreiro House | Feel welcomed at our newly built cottage-Jewel in the River

2 Bedroom House in Corte Vidreiro, Tavira

Nestled in a beautiful secluded valley, near to the village of Santa Catarina and 20 minutes drive from the historic town of Tavira and its golden beaches.
Ria Joia sleeps 4 comfortably with one double bedroom, and one twin bedroom with bunk beds.
The house has been furnished with comfort in mind and bathed in light with double height wooden ceilings, all the linen is 100% cotton and proudly made in Portugal.
Summer guests will appreciate the air conditioning in the double bedroom and lounge.
Tiled with locally made terracotta tiles and beautiful Portuguese stone in the bathrooms.
This is an owner managed property, so we are around if needed!
Come and live an authentic Algarvean country life!
Ria Joia is in the glass cutters village, in a valley that time has wonderfully forgotten. For 8 months of the year the beautiful São Bras do Alportel river winds its way around the bottom of the garden.
There are so many wonderful walks to explore, and in the spring seek out wild orchids, lupins, and irises. Catch a glimpse of the bright yellow Golden Oriole birds, Nightingales, eagles and many other amazing flora and fauna. This rich and diverse habitat is home to wild boar, otters and mongeese. At night, a keen ear might discern the call of a Tawny Owl.
Depending on the time of year, enjoy a cooling dip, or a cold plunge, overlooking the river bed, in our 7m by 4m swimming pool. Find a cool place to sit and read in the one and a half acre garden under one of many olive, carob or citrus trees.
Here, in the Algarve's unspoiled haven, the night sky comes alive.
Unplug and reconnect with the cosmos. Romance, under a blanket of stars.
There is unlimited, high-speed satellite internet access, provided by Starlink, (perfect for digital nomads and all!)
Private on site parking, smart TV with digital streaming platform access.
We take bookings throughout the year, come and enjoy a warmer winter, sample some of the Algarve's 3000 hours of sunshine!

Summary: Very nice house with many fine design details. Large and well equipped kitchen, large shaded patio / pool area w. quality furniture. The surrounding hills create a wonderful backdrop for enjoying our vacation. Many fine hiking opportunities within a short distance. Aircondition and a gas BBQ also a big plus.
