IMPORTANT NOTES:
POOL: Whilst families are always very welcome and have a great time at Casa do Riacho, it should be pointed out that the swimming pool (shallow end approx 1 metre deep) is NOT fenced and is located very close to the villa and is therefore unsuitable for unsupervised children or non-swimmers. There is a small brook that runs through part of the garden during periods of rain only. It is dry for most of the year. There are prickly cactus plants along the front edge boundary, which parents with little ones should be aware of.
SMOKERS: Smoking is not accepted in the villa but is not a problem on the terraces and in the gardens, though careful disposal of cigarette butts is essential, due to the risk of forest fires, especially in the dry season.
DOGS/PETS: The owners are huge dog/animal lovers but please enquire regarding bringing your pet with you, as this will completely be at the discretion of the owners.
OWNERS' OWN INFORMATION FORM & TERMS AND CONDITIONS: This will be made available to clients by the owners or property manager.
UNDER PORTUGUESE RENTAL LICENCE NO.
