We stayed a week in Fred and Nele´s beautiful house in the hills above Faro. A wonderful renovation of an old farmhouse - with almost meter thick walls to keep out the heat, natural materials to provide a welcoming and comfortable environment to live and sleep and eat. The interior design was both stylish and homelike. We felt good to be there. The kitchen was all one could hope for, the bathrooms were minimalist but absolutely functional, and the beds were comfortable. There was only one couch, however we managed. The large outside patio area and rooftop were also there to enjoy. Fred and Nele were excellent, informative and welcoming hosts, and Chewie the dog was brilliant and friendly - occasionally coming to say hi ( with his teddy bear in his mouth ). We enjoyed our stay, and appreciated the opportunity to witness the results of Fred and Nele´s imagination and hard work.
