Casa Mignon
is a lovely detached villa standing in its own grounds in a secluded
position, approximately 1.5 km from the old fishing town of Lagos. It
nestles in a quiet cul-de-sac with another four individually designed
detached villas. It is not overlooked and provides a perfect base for
your vacation in the Algarve.

Casa
Mignon's private, kidney shaped swimming pool (approx. 10m x
4m) has steps built into one end and slopes away to a depth of 2.3
metres (approx. 7 feet). It can be heated if required (for which a small
charge is made) and is complemented by a sunbathing terrace set within a
walled garden. |

The
calcada driveway leads down to a parking area for several
cars, a garage and the beautifully manicured gardens. The villa is
surrounded on all sides by a wide variety of trees, plants and shrubs.

The
Terrace is entered from side gateways or directly from the
French doors of the main ground floor bedrooms. There is an assortment
of comfortable outdoor furniture provided for both dining and
sunbathing, an outside shower is sited by the pool. A built in BBQ is
positioned by the pool terrace wall and Al Fresco dining by the pool on
a warm summer evening, is a delight. |

Flowers and
blossoms are everywhere and the range of fruit trees at the
rear includes nectarine, orange, lemon, plum, apricot, peach, fig and
several others. Casa Mignon marmalade has been a favourite of many
guests! Over the pool, above the gardens to the rear, there are fine
views across to the Monchique mountains.

Avid
sun worshippers are able to use the spiral staircase to gain
access to the separate, walled roof terrace. A veritable sun trap - once
you are reclined, you are not overlooked!! |
