Holidays in Western Algarve - Caldas De Monchique

Key Details

Our holidays in Caldas are based at Villa Termal Das Caldas De Monchique Spa Resort, which is in the National Park of the

Serra De Monchique. The village has a huge variety of painting subjects including traditional architecture, cobbled streets

lined with deciduous trees and dappled sunlight. There are buildings perched down the valley giving various vantage points

for painting. It is a wonderful place to visit, stay and paint where you will soak up the atmosphere of the place.

Nearby there is also the National Park of Sitio Das Fontes and the historic city of Silves. The Algarve coast is not too far

away with places such as Lagos, Luz and Burgau.
