We have used Lester's Golf on several occasions over the last 5 or 6 years and they have been brilliant at securing the most cost effective accommodation and golf green fees on the Algarve - particularly the 4 Seasons Vilamoura resort. As they are based in Vilamoura they are ideally located to seek out the best deals and are always up to date on what's happening locally. They are really friendly and helpful and I have no hesitation in recommending Lester's Golf for your next Algarve holiday.

Then it's off to the local fish market to soak up the local atmosphere and see the freshest of fish and vegetables. Back at the farm there is plenty to do, the wood oven will be lit but the bread must be made using fresh yeast from the baker. So roll up your sleeves and grab an apron.Herbs and organic produce from our gardens will be used to prepare salads and side dishes to accompany the bread , fish and meat that you will cook on the grill. We also have many vegetarian specialties for those guests who prefer not to eat meat, please let us know your preference when booking. Last but not least, something sweet - the dessert! All dishes are accompanied by appropriate local wines. Starting around 10.00a.m. and finishing around 4.00pm. after sitting down to enjoy the superb meal that you have cooked.

You will learn to select prepare and grill fresh fish, bake bread in our historic wood oven and learn how to chose the best fruits and vegetables from our organic kitchen gardens. You may even collect newly laid eggs from the poultry pens.
We decided to take our mom to Frances' cooking class for a birthday/mother's day gift while we were on vacation in Portugal! It was one of the most amazing days of our trip. Frances and Milton were so welcoming and knowledgeable! We made four types of bread, grilled fresh fish from the fish market, octopus, bacalhau, a salad, dessert and more that I'm forgetting. It was a feast!! We will be back when we return one day! Thank you again Frances and Milton!!

Fabulous authentic experience cooking dinner with Inez! The location is amazing with a stunning view over Tavira and out to sea. We were welcomed by Inez and there followed a relaxed informative and fun few hours preparing a three course meal. Each course was simple but delicious and we were guided gently through the techniques by Inez whilst she passed on a wealth of information about Portuguese gastronomy . Dinner outside under the starts in the beautiful garden was delightful. We can't wait for our next visit. Thank you for making it so special.

DAILY BOOT CAMPS Join us at Encosta do lago ,Quinta do Lago and participate in our new Daily Fitness Bootcamps and have the time of your life. Train as soon as you arrive from 8am till 7pm The concept behind our daily Bootcamps is a short, but high intense workout. Every session lasts 30 minutes.
Due to a cancellation of my holiday I sign in for a bootcamp with Marco and had an great, amazing and wonderful week. Marco is passionate and professional trainer and he pushed me to my limits (and over) and also took care of my very tight muscles. I loved that the training was different any time from running, boxing, swimming, various high intensity sessions at the beach and as icing on the cake; a (sand) bike ride on the beach to Faro, it was magic. The appartment I stayed in was very nice, with seavieuw and 2 minutes walk to te beach. The food was incredible and was one of the best I ever had and Erika is not only a great an passionate cook she is also great company and a lovely person. Marco and Erika are a great team which made this bootcamp very special. I Would recommend this bootcamp to anyone who wants to give your body and mind a great boost. I learned also new things; my abs had been neglected, no yogurt before training, how to loosen my (very) tight muscles (I bough a foam roller). The final results were great and Marco, thank you for your energy, trust and al your attention, it was what this week makes very special.
