BACKGROUND and DESCRIPTION

The construction of Moorish style Castle set in the middle of the heart of sunny Algarve, in excellent condition, on a hilltop amid a grove of orange trees, with an incredible 180-degree sea-view, between Faro and Loule, started in 1972 and was interrupted for 4-years following the Portuguese revolution. Building has been resumed and it has not stopped since. It is only 15 minutes away from Faro international airport, the fabulous beaches and renowned golf courses.

CASTELO DO MOINHO - differentiates itself from ancient one-block castles by the concept of the layout, and of the varied facilities, which allows total privacy in each self-contained accommodation. It has been designed with very generous amenities. This castle is an original blend of fortress and palace.

From outside we see an impressive 70m long stone facade with turrets and crenulations which reminds one of the Middle Ages giving out a quite distinctive approach.

Inside, dominate the soft and peaceful alternance of yellow and pink ochre hand made bricks, terraces, suspended gardens, colonnades and hand painted tiles making the visitor feel like being in a world of its own.

The ageless Moorih style throughout is a piece of art which needed 18-years of stone dressing and carpentry artistry.
The climate in the Algarve is known as probably the best in Europe and, Portugal is socially and politically one of the safest countries within the EU.
