An award winning village development, specifically designed for the over 55’s, Monte da Palhagueira is situated within 22 acres of manicured grounds and gardens and nestles within the tranquil hillside of Gorjões, just 20 minutes drive from Faro International Airport.
Monte da Palha-gueira is home to 33 unique villas, town-houses and apartments. Each property has been individually designed with a host of traditional features and all have been created with practicality and ease of maintenance in mind.
Residents are able to maintain complete independence, yet can also enjoy the added reassurance that there is qualified medical assistance on hand, available 24-hours a day, should it ever be required.
The village offers excellent amenities, including its own Anglican Church of St. Luke, the award winning Le Marquis restaurant, swimming pools and an ornamental lake, all set within traditional surroundings, bounded by stone-walled lanes and terracotta-tiled buildings.
In addition, Monte da Palhagueira Nursing Home is located within the grounds; with 20 bedrooms, the home provides nursing, respite and convalescent care, with a resident’s dining room, physiotherapy unit, a hairdressing service and a secluded swimming pool with ample seating and viewing areas.
Social life within the village includes a weekly book club, coffee morning and a Wednesday social evening, with refreshments provided. A monthly villagers’ lunch is also arranged within Le Marquis restaurant.
