Family-friendly holiday rentals in Monchique

House in the Monchique mountains

Horta de Cima is our space located in the charming Serra de Monchique. This house has been a family legacy since the days of our great-grandparents, and was recently restored by our father, who dedicated himself to transforming this mountain paradise into a dream house. A 30-minute drive from the beaches of Aljezur and Portimão, this location offers the best of both worlds. In the nearest village (Casais), a 7-minute walk away, there is also an excellent free swimming pool with panoramic views of the mountains.
