Good communication with the owner. Property is in a very well maintained development that we know really well. 10 minute stroll through Budens village takes you to the main Intermarchè, or see if you can find the village bakery tucked away for fresh bread. Ò Tiago family run restaurant in the village is a must - ample portions & very reasonable. You'll need a car for exploring the Atlantic coast beaches Bordeira had a lagoon to paddle through to get to the main beach), Fort at Sagres, sunset at Castlejo, beautiful beaches at Ingrina, Salema & happy hour at Burgau, take the 300 steps down the cliffs from the lighthouse at Lagos & get personal boat trips round the grotto caves or splash out and get a catamaran from Lagos marina in the opposite direction to Benagil caves - you will not be disappointed!! We love this area of the Algarve, rugged, raw, unspoilt & the wind was very welcome too!
