2 bedrooms
nullm2
1 bathroom
4 people
A peaceful little house set in a private pine grove just outside Vila Nova de Milfontes. A place to slow down, work remotely and live close to nature for a few weeks or a few months.
Casinha do Pinhal combines the privacy and tranquillity of the countryside with easy access to the village and the Alentejo coast. It is especially suited to couples, small families, remote workers and anyone looking for a slower rhythm between land and sea.
THE HOUSE
Compact in size, generous in atmosphere. The house has one double bedroom, a wooden mezzanine with a second double bed, a sofa bed in the living room, an open-plan kitchen and living area, bathroom, and a separate workspace/dressing room.
Wi-Fi and air conditioning make the house comfortable for longer stays throughout the year, while the fully equipped kitchen and dedicated workspace make it practical for everyday living and remote work.
OUTDOOR LIVING
The land is an important part of the experience. The house sits within around 1.2 hectares of private pine woodland and open space, with a covered terrace and plenty of room to enjoy life outdoors.
There is a dedicated barbecue area, a wooden lookout among the pines with a swing beneath it, and a trampoline and natural play areas for children.
LOCATION
The house is just outside Vila Nova de Milfontes, close enough to reach the village by bike while still feeling immersed in the countryside.
The Mira estuary, Atlantic beaches, surf spots and coastal walks are all nearby. Praia do Malhão, one of the wild highlights of the Alentejo coast, is around 10 km away.
A PLACE MADE WITH CARE
Casinha do Pinhal has been restored slowly and thoughtfully, with care for the land around it. We continue to encourage native vegetation and wildlife-friendly habitats, creating a small refuge for both guests and nature.
Sustainability is part of everyday life here. The house uses a modern water-saving dry toilet and a plant-based natural wastewater treatment system, which are simple, comfortable solutions designed to reduce its environmental footprint.
GOOD TO KNOW
This is genuine countryside rather than a resort or conventional holiday apartment. Birds, frogs, insects and other small wildlife are part of the natural surroundings, and neighbouring farm animals sometimes stop by the fence.
The ecological dry toilet is different from a standard flush toilet, but it is clean, simple to use and explained on arrival.
If you enjoy nature, privacy and a slower way of living, while still having Wi-Fi and the practical comforts needed for a longer stay, you are likely to feel at home here.

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on Flatio must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without Flatio is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on Flatio.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On Flatio, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
