"Casa Lagarto is a basic villa with immediate neighbours, so it did not feel remote. It has all the necessities for a self catered stay.A car is essential for getting around the many delightful locations in the Western Algarve, Silves is particularly appealing.Unsure whether the heating would be suitable for a winter stay.A few problems arose, but these were dealt with very promptly by the manager, which was a big positive."
