Séjour de 3 semaines en septembre.Grande maison parfaite pour groupe mais très peu de vaiselles. Beaucoup des équipements de la maison sont en fin de vie utile. La maison bien qu’à quelques km des services, la route tortueuse et pentue pour s’y rendre les rendent difficilement accessibles. (Aucun service à pied) Après notre arrivée le propriétaire ne répondait plus à nos questions. De plus malgré l’information du propriétaire de faire le ménage à mi séjour nous n’avons jamais eu le service.Belle vue, belles terrasses et facile d’accéder à Fanal Forest.

Like paradise!

We really enjoyed staying in this cottage. The place is very idyllic and the view is wonderful. We recommend hiking the levadas below the cottage. The owner is very kind and helpful.
