Having founded and led Minh Mang, a design label for shoes, bags and Interior Design, Lilly Warwick has now turned to designing interiors of villas in the Algarve. These two properties have very distinctive styles. Bemposta is rustic Portuguese Farmhouse, and the Cumeada, distinctly modern Asian.

Casa Cumeada

This villa sits on the Cumeada Ridge, near the historic town of Silves. Situated in a sleepy village atmosphere, offering total privacy. Magnificent views are offered from the villa of the valley below. The swimming pool is surrounded by an exotic landscape of giant shady palms and date trees, and a fruit orchard.

Interior, Casa Cumeada is decorated in an Asian Style. Rich silks are used throughout, together with fine Portuguese cotton and Asian ornaments.

Bemposta

Bemposta is a charming Portuguese farmhouse sited in an area of 1.5 hectare between Portimao and Alvor Beach. Beautiful manicured lawns lead from the house to the super size swimming pool, of 14m x 5m. The grounds include large mature orchard, palm tree garden and tennis wall that also double up as badminton, volley and basket ball court.

This house is decorated in traditional Algarvian farmhouse style. Rich Portuguese cotton is used, and the blue and white azulejos tiles are used throughout the house. Decorated in a cosy and homely style, its an ideal place to chill out.
