Album Description:

In one of my strolls on Seixal Bay, in the first days of April, I crossed the road and I entered this beautiful place. Although it has not the splendour of the old times, I find it quite delightful.

  • Hello Rosa, Thank you for a look at this beautiful garden! It looks so peaceful - just the place to sit and think or to read a book and listen to the water - lovely! Thanks also for all the messages you left in my Pastel Palette album - they are much appreciated! Take care, Mandy (UK)

  • I'm glad you enjoyed Robin's progression album. Why I did it was that I remembered that I would enjoy what Life magazine would do with pictorials of a Dad taking photos of his kid in the same bathing suit on her birthday every year til the age of 18. Thank you for your remarks! Leslie

  • Dear Rosa, this garden is quite marvellous, I want to see this myself!! Wisterias are wonderful, I have only seen them in Rome and Funchal but cannot remember having seen these in Finland. I must find out if they can live in our arctic conditions. Thank you for sharing this album, so beautiful! I love Portugal! Greetings, Merike

  • Bonjour Rosa, Je le trouve très bien ton merveilleux jardin =) c'est un endroit qui semble avoir vraiment un attrait et un charme particulier; moi aussi j'aime beaucoup ce genre d'endroit, où il y a plein de choses à voir et à découvrir. Tes photos sont très belles et ça donne un album merveilleux. Pour répondre à ta question c'est Frédéric qui est dans la piscine avec Eloise. Bravo encore pour ton album et à la prochaine... Bonne journée, Marielle

  • Hi Rosa, The villa and gardens are very beautiful. The people who keep it up have done a wonderful job caring for the home and the gardens. It's interesting to think of all the families that shared this home throughout the centuries. The flowers, orchard and vinyard are beautiful. Thank you for sharing this remarkable home with us and also for sharing some of its history. Take care, Ray
