Portugal – the Land with the most Sunshine Hours in Europe

12/11/2011

According to international weather gurus, Portugal´s Algarve has the most sunshine hours of any other place in Europe and some of the most beautiful beaches, too.  The Algarve is a favorite resort area with lots of  inexpensive flights  possibilities from northern Europe flying to Faro.  It is easy to avoid the tourist crowds by seeking refuge in the lovely little villages in the hills about an half hour from the coast.

One of the special guesthouses in this area is  the Reguengo www.reguengo.de.  A charming, quaintly restored old farm with little stone cottages next to a river, with solar power, well water, wellness/yoga retreats and more.  A place to relax and feel at home amongst friends



Then there is our favorite region: the Sintra Natural Park.  Lots of sunshine here too, with beautiful secluded beaches and grand coastal cliffs, magical forests, romantic castels and palaces and lots of friendly people.  And our own Colina Flora, a “green” country  guesthouse with its peaceful, rural location in the heart of the Sintra Natural Park which has special low rates for the winter months, yoga, art and vegetarian cooking retreats and more.  www.colinaflora.com
