This charming, traditional Madeiran house takes you away from the hustle and bustle of the city and coast and lands you slap bang in the middle of where the grapes grow. Nestled in the quiet village of Estreito de Câmara de Lobos, you’re surrounded by vineyards, famous for producing Madeira wine. Settle down on your sun-drenched terrace, light the barbecue and you can enjoy the sight of green vines stretching out to the azure blue waters of the ocean in the distance. Uncork a bottle of wine – from the area, of course – and you can happily spend a few hours enjoying food, drink, and the quiet conversation of your loved ones in this tranquil location. Step inside your cottage, and you’re met with classic features that have been lovingly refurbished and modernised over recent years, while still maintaining the character of the home. Floral displays are peppered throughout the house, adorning walls, cushions and pillows, as a distinct nod to your rural location. If you fancy travelling a little further afield, it’s just a ten-minute drive to Funchal, where you can visit the beaches that make up this beautiful stretch of coast. In this lovely location, you really have the best of both worlds.
