The biggest standout feature is the magnificent Palace of Estoi, with its dark pink exterior and neoclassical design. Make sure you have a wander around the lush gardens while you’re there, too. Meanwhile, the Milreu Roman ruins show off an old agricultural settlement with some intricate mosaics.
About 25 minutes from Faro and a short trip from Ria Formosa Natural Park, you’ll find lots of pretty sights around you on your Estoi holiday. Cycle around the local area, shop in the fruit and veg markets and check out the main square. As for meals, traditional Portuguese cuisine is a must-try.
Algarve
What better way to spend a winter break on the Algarve than with a spot of birdwatching? Ria Formosa National Park is a vast maze of lagoons and tiny islands on the coast of Quinta do Lago. This epic ecosystem is protected by UNESCO and it's home to loads of aquatic birds, such as flamingos, pelicans and storks, and fascinating creatures including seahorses. Walk along one of the nature trails or take a boat and glide through the lagoons.

The Capela dos Ossos was built by a Franciscan monk in the 16th century and lined with the exhumed skeletons of hundreds of his peers as a meditation on mortality and eternity. The inscription at the entrance leaves no doubt as to the monk’s message: ‘We bones that here are, for yours await.’

Like many of Faro’s churches, its Cathedral was built on the site of a Moorish mosque. It was completed in 1271 and can be found in the Old Town. A small entrance fee will get you access to the tower, cathedral, museum, cloister and chapel of bones. There are loads of interesting gargoyles, too.
