Much to the chagrin of our postman and tired out travellers searching for a place to stay we have been without numbers on our doors for the 6 years we have lived here.Of course, we have been trying to allow Casa Rosada to remain one of the Algarve´s best kept secrets. In times of austerity one needs to announce oneself.No need to shout from the top of Castro Marim castle but some discreet traditional enamel plated blue numbers in the style of old Lisbon houses could definitely become the order of the day and enhance our façade. Our dear friends in London sourced the number plates, having great memories and recording this item from our wish list in their back heads. A surprise package arrived in the post one day and I have finally set about putting us on the map ready for this coming season.Thank you dear friends( you know who you are) for our numbers that are right up our street.
