The small town of Almancil is in the municipality of Loulé, in the ever-glorious Algarve region of Portugal. It sits on the southern shoreline of Portugal, and soaks in sunshine all year round.

If that wasn’t reason enough to visit, this area abounds with superb Algarvian architecture – one stunning example being the church of São Lourenço with its 18th century ceramic tiles. Food is a way of life here, too. Discover first class cuisine in the wonderful range of restaurants that line the streets.
