The stone structure, while I suspect it was built many years ago still had all of the modern conveniences you would want.This well appointed home was set in the mountains and we were able to step out of modern chaos and truly relax. The gardens, the pool and the outdoor patio set the stage for a lovely glass of vhino verde and great conversation.Thank you Mark and Sharon for sharing your well-loved home with us! We will be back again if possible. ##### Janet P. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Dan B. Sep 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy The Stonehouse occupies a stunning location with panaramic views across the hills and down to the coast. Access to Monchique and its supermarket and restaurants is a matter of minutes and to south or west coast is only 30 or 40 minutes.The value is good too, at a considerably lower price than most properties in the area, but there are some compromises to be made: During our stay the pool filter didnt appear to be working so we had to use the net a lot to skim the surface. The microwve is temperamental and turned when it felt like it, but mostly it was the bed. At home we have an extra firm mattress but the one at the Stonehouse is so unforgiving we struggled to sleep, and the bed is noisy, each time one of us rolled over it woke the other up.Overall its a nice place to stay but does need a little tlc. ##### Dan B.

Aug 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Stone House Stay - Late July 2025 It was the idyllic Country House stay in the Portuguese hills with amazing views from the Lounge and Terrace that were magical. The House is very tradition giving you that feeling of an escape to another world and time. We enjoyed having a meal and wine on the terrace while looking at the amazing views and the flora that abounds. Access via the local roads is good and there is parking right next to the house and minimal local traffic passing making for a very quiet ambience. Everything you need is provided, plus amazingly well researched and presented information folders about the area, which make for great reading and tips. Monchique and nearby localities have much to offer, we stayed 4 nights and could have stayed another couple. ##### Gavin L. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gillian G.

There are lots of interesting places to visit nearby and for those who like to walk a good choice of trails, both in the hills and on the nearby coast. Provisions for self catering can be found in Monchique or in some of the towns close by. Weather was very warm for our stay, and the greenery and shade around the house kept it comfortable, and cool enough for sleeping . ##### Penelope (Penny) T.

The location and the terrace area is very nice, but inside the house could perhaps use some updating. The lounge and main bedroom are spacious. The second bedroom got very hot \[it was 38c each day\], and the kitchen had minimal counter space and a small fridge. More toilet rolls, bin liners, etc were needed. ##### Tim L.

The property was in quiet peaceful location on a hillside with great views over the countryside all the way to the coast. The kitchen was well appointed with plenty of utensils. The pool was not large but was ideal and very welcome to cool off in during the day. Even the the house seemed remote the village of Monichique was only 10 minutes drive where there is a supermarket which has everything you need for you stay.There are restaurants and here too. Communications withe Mark and Sharon were fast and responsive. ##### Jeff P. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 Archival ### 10/10 Excellent Sep 16, 2015 #### Lovely peaceful cottage Not long back from a wonderful stay at The Stonehouse. The view was breath-taking over the mountains to the coast. We had lovely clear blue skies for the first part of the holiday, and it was warm throughout the entire week. The cottage is lovely with a large lounge and everything that was required for our stay there. Although we never switched the t.v. or c.d. player on, as it was just nice to sit outside on the lovely large terrace and admire the views and the sounds of the birds. We ate outside every night, buying provisions from the local supermarket about 5-10 minutes away in Monchique. There were ample towels and bed linen, and Paula the maid made sure everything was alright for us during our stay. I can understand why Mark and Sharon love it so much, we could hardly tear ourselves away but here are lots of places to visit during the stay and we visited Alvor, the West Coast beaches and Monchique. Mark and Sharon provided loads of information of places to visit and all about the surrounding areas. There were local restaurants, which you could walk to during the day, but it was a long walk uphill back, but easily driveable in 5-10 minutes. If you want to get away from it all and just relax would certainly recommend. Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheryl L. Oct 12, 2017 #### Loved it! My husband and I spent 4 nights at the Stonehouse during our 2 week trip around the southern part of Portugal. The only complaint I have is that we didn't have enough time here. We did several day trips i.e. to Albuferia for a cruise, to Salema, etc. It was about 40 minutes to these sites. Then we got to return the Stonehouse to relax for the evening to relax. The nearby town of Monchique had a grocery store so we stocked up on what we needed there. We had an evening meal in the town a couple of nights. Meals were delicious and reasonably priced. Sadly, I don't have the names of the places we choose. My bad....The house had everything we needed to prepare meals if we chose to. So much information in the binders at the house about local attractions, maps, restaurants. Those were an excellent resource. The house is in a very quiet location. I honestly wasn't sure our GPS knew what it was doing when we were first heading there. But we were rewarded at the end of the drive. I would recommend this location for a couple looking for a quiet relaxing visit to the area. The outdoor seating area and pool were just so perfect with the lovely view of the valley below. I can't say enough positive things. I would love to go back someday. We shall see. Thank you to Mark & Sharon for offering this place to travelers to this area. We certainly enjoyed our time at the Stonehouse. ##### Cheryl L. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael H.

Perfekte Lage für Ausflüge zu den Küsten der Algarve. ##### Peter O. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacques S.

A casa não tivemos grandes surpresas uma vez que as fotografias fazem jus a aquilo que é. O caminho é um bocadinho difícil de se fazer a noite pois não o conheciamos e por isso e algo assustador. Um grande obrigado Mark and Sharon ##### Teresa A. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2020 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon V.

Has all facilities and equipment needed, whether it's a quiet stay or active holiday. Pool is plenty big enough for a quick cool down and the outside area is very useful. Monchique is close enough for a 10 minute taxi ride with several restaurants. We walked to a pizza place (around 20 minutes) but make sure it's before sunset! Highly recommended to stay here. ##### Simon V. Stayed 10 nights in Aug 2020 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Sarah G. Sep 26, 2020 Liked: Listing accuracy #### Alles ok, aber auch nicht mehr... Schöne Umgebung, aber sehr speziell eingerichtetes haus. Alles etwas in die Jahre gekommen, an manchen Stellen war es nicht so sauber... ##### Sarah G. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2020
