We are passionate and outgoing owners trying to offer an unforgettable experience at our guesthouse. We are committed to ensuring that our guests enjoy an atmosphere of relaxation, privacy and comfort, with additional services that guests can book on the spot such as breakfast served on the private terrace of each cabin, private wine tasting and we like to share lots of practical information to get the most out of your holiday in the Algarve. We personally manage on-site and in the area many activities, day tours and cooking classes to offer a wide range of opportunities to make your stay also an opportunity to get to know the local gastronomy, traditions and culture. To make sure our guests enjoy a memorable stay, we've shared with them a digital brochure we've created so they don't miss out on the most beautiful views, the most interesting places to see and where to taste the best Algarve cuisine.

Our guesthouse in Algarve was an old farmhouse dating back to 1870, surrounded by 4 hectares of land and named after our best friends: our cats (Quinta do Gato Preto literally means “House of the Black Cat”). Four years ago, its current owners began the enjoyable task of patiently and lovingly restoring their house into a home open to everyone. Now it’s a small bed and breakfast in Algarve, where visitors in search of a peaceful corner away from the coast hustle and bustle can share the beautiful scenery. The warm and professional welcome you receive, together with a friendly atmosphere, will make you feel at home straightaway. Our guesthouse is the perfect location for your Algarve holidays. Directly in your room and just for our guests, you will find several Brochures and Guides of the best things to do in the Algarve, from hidden beaches to panoramic restaurant nestled in the mountain of Monchique. On request, a picnic hampers and light lunches to take away are available every day, coupled with a comfortable refrigerated backpack.
