I'm Fred. In 2013, my wife and I took over "Boa Terra" from family who owned it for 17 years and converted the old, neglected farmhouse into the attractive, comfortable house it is today. After the death of my wife in 2021, I am still very happy with the house, the place and the quiet environment.

Thanks for the good review. You are right when you write: ideal for a rest holiday". If you are looking for the nightlife and hustle and bustle of, for example, Albufeira, then Boa Terra is the place to be.

The first week we worked on the site near the house. The landlord was very courteous and luckily we had the second week all the privacy and tranquility. Very nice place to spend your holiday.
