Welcome to Sunny Silves and our renovated townhouse! Enjoy the sun on your rooftop terrace or in the peace of a secluded garden with old stone walls and fruit trees. Explore the charming historic town of Silves on your doorstep. Nature walks, in the hills, begin a kilometer away and the coastline and beaches, are a short 15 kilometer drive to the south

Our property consists of 2 recently renovated town houses in the centre of Silves. Each house has a private terrace but they also share a common courtyard and garden.

Your house is the first one. It has a front door on the street and also direct access to the common courtyard. It has a hall, 2 bedrooms, bathroom, living space with open kitchen and a laundry area. From your private rooftop terrace you can enjoy the view. and sunbathe. You can also have a meal outside in the courtyard or relax in the garden.

The historic centre is on your doorstep. Silves is a small town on a hill. Above is the old Moorish castle (once the capital of the Algarve) and below the Arade river. There are monuments and many charming restaurants and cafés, but the city is calm compared to the nearby coast.

Only a short drive brings you to the Southern coast. There are a few long flat sandy expanses but mainly cliffs, intimate beaches and pretty villages.

Directly north of Silves begin the foothills of the Sierra de Monchique. It is a beautiful place for nature walks and one feels quickly away from everything.

PRACTICAL DETAILS

There are no parking restrictions, with a bit of luck you should be able to park on the road close to the house.

Nearest small shop and café about 100 meters

Nearest supermarket, 800 meters

There is internet but no TV

In October 2023 I installed a heat pump system in the living area and kitchen which does both heating and air conditioning. In the bedrooms there are electric radiators and fans.

    A wonderful place to stay that felt like home from the moment I arrived! Comfortable and well equipped, it had everything that I needed. The rooms get dark quite early in autumn/winter, but you can still catch some sun on the rooftop terrace or the garden. Thyl is a great host and was always quick to reply to any questions. I’d be happy to stay here again!

    We enjoyed our stay. Silves is a lovely town and the apartment is centrally located so it’s easy to walk to all the sights. With a car it’s also easy to get to the coast. Thylbert left us great recommandations on all the things to do in the area. We would return.

    Excellent property with shared garden. Perfect for our 5 days exploring the Algarve. Silves is a great little town. The house is walking distance to everything. Parking was never a problem and Thyl was an outstanding host.

    Great info pack with all the details we needed for easy orientation. Lovely welcome pack in the fridge. Bedrooms quite small but sufficient. Enjoyed the roof terrace at sunset. We'd certainly choose this property again. Thank you, Thyl!

    The apartment was exactly as it was described. The outdoor space was lovely. We had a minor issue the first day and our host, Thyl, arrived to address it within five minutes. He was wonderfully informative about the town and was very helpful with recommendations. Thyl also does tours and we thoroughly recommend. Thank you!

    Very nice appartment, everything was as promised, all the small details (soap, washing supplies, milk, beer etc) were taken care of, and the appartment was extremely clean and well maintained. Thyl was very helpful and friendly and seemed very forthcoming. This was our second stay in one of Thyls appartments, and we would definitely come back. Highly recommended.

    Good location with pretty garden and rooftop deck. Apartment itself was basic but practical. Host lives nearby and is very responsive. Wifi was unstable.

    Place is really a perfect location to explore Silves and the surroundings, including the Algarve coast. Also the place itself is very nice, clean, just as described on the platform. And as if that wasn’t enough, Thyl is a very friendly host, and always helpful when needed. Would love to come one day again :)

    Welcoming and accommodating host, lovely garden and roof top terrace. The house included everything we needed to feel at home. We felt very much a part of our neighbourhood. Silves is a beautiful unspoiled town.

    The apartment is in a lovely quiet village. The roof top garden is very accessible and perfect for breakfast it a drink in the evening. There’s a light there so it was just perfect for us. We loved it!
