About this property

Casa do Lanço - Verdelho, wine and laurissilva

Casa do Lanço is part of a 25,000m² vineyard estate in a transition zone between the Laurissilva forest and the farmland of São Vicente. The terraced vineyards are home to the Tinta Negra and Verdelho grape varieties, which produce the famous Madeira wine.

The property is set in a group of houses where you'll find several gardens with centuries-old trees, including a large oak tree over 250 years old and several endemic species of laurel forest such as tis, vinháticos, barbusanos, and loureiros.

The house is decorated with various details, in a fusion between classic and contemporary, following the tradition of a family home. It has a bedroom with two traditional-style single beds and an access door to the outside, so you can wake up to a fantastic view of the yard and gardens.

Inside the property, you can enjoy the shared swimming pool and sauna, stroll along the stream and gardens, or relax in the backyard, where you can have breakfast (not included), prepared every morning by the caretaker. During your stay, you can take part in the viticulture process at harvest time or buy the wines available at the house.

AREA
The house is located in the north of the island, more precisely in Rosário, a parish in the municipality of São Vicente. As it is in a more isolated area, there are no shops in the vicinity of the property. A ten-minute drive from the town of São Vicente, you'll find local shops, restaurants, a supermarket and a pharmacy.
In the vicinity of the house you have access to several trails and levadas, where you can take the opportunity to stroll and explore our fantastic island on foot.
If you want to find other places or activities, the city of Funchal is a 45-minute drive away.

Lovely private setting in quiet location

We enjoyed staying at Casa Do Lanco. It was clean, quiet and comfortable. We liked coming back to the peace and tranquility after our days out. Loved the North of the island away from the crowds.

Lovely stay at Verdelho

We enjoyed a lovely stay at the Verdelho property. The property was exactly as advertised, with comfy finishings and a stunning view. Be sure to look up directions to the property ahead of time, as we lost internet service on approach and got a little turned around as a result. We loved watching the sun rise over the valley.

An excellent place to connect with nature

The place offers an excellent accommodation with spectacular mountain views. It located in very quiet place and perfect if you want to relax from city life and have a car. The apartments are very comfortable and cosy with excellent design and decoration. Especially, we loved the fire place. It gives a very special evenings with magic atmosphere. Beds were comfortable and we had everything to enjoy. Highly recommend, very unique place.

Lovely remote quiet bungalow

One of a pair of bungalows on a beautiful property up a quiet valley from Sao Vicente. Lovely grounds to wander down and enjoy, quite steep. Reasonably well equiped kitchen and confortable bed. Not too hot. Parking and turning on the property are easy.

Nie wieder!

Als wir ankamen stank es im Wohnzimmer nach verbranntem Holz. Das Bad roch nach Chlor. Die Immobilie ist in einem schlechten, abgenutzen Zustand. Insekten wurden nicht entfernt, es war alles voller Spinnen bei Ankunft. Im Bad schimmelt es. Tücher, Gardinen teilweise fleckig. Die Möbel riechen unangenehm. NIE WIEDER!
Response from VrboOwner on May 20, 2026

Schönes Haus (für Sommer)

Das Haus ist sehr schön und sehr gut eingerichtet und, zum Beispiel in der Küche, sehr gut ausgestattet. Auch sehr nett war der Empfang mit Obst, Kuchen, Wein. Ich hatte mir einen Park vorgestellt, die Anlage ist jedoch klein und nur bedingt zum spazieren geeignet. Es gibt nicht wie angegeben eine Waschmaschine, sondern man kann die Wäsche zum Waschen jemandem mitgeben ( das fand ich störend). Ich würde das Haus nicht für Winter empfehlen, denn es gibt nur einen Radiator und der heizt den offenen Wohnraum schlecht. Den Kamin durften wir nach zweimaliger Nachfrage benutzen, das Holz brennt aber schlecht. Hervorheben möchte ich, dass unsere Ansprechpartnerin immer sofort geantwortet und geholfen hat.

Vielen Dank für Ihre ausführlichen Kommentare und Ihre Zeit, die Sie dafür aufgewendet haben, uns Feedback zu geben. Es freut uns zu hören, dass Sie unsere Einrichtung und den herzlichen Empfang bei Ihrer Ankunft geschätzt haben. Wir entschuldigen uns für das Missverständnis in Bezug auf die Waschmöglichkeiten und werden sicherstellen, dass diese in Zukunft klarer kommuniziert werden. Ebenso bedauern wir, dass die Heizmöglichkeiten in den Wintermonaten nicht Ihren Erwartungen entsprachen. Ihre Rückmeldung ist sehr wertvoll und hilft uns, unsere Dienstleistungen weiter zu verbessern. Nochmals vielen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung und wir würden uns freuen, Sie in der Zukunft wieder begrüßen zu dürfen.

Great 'hacienda' in the hills!

This complete house was in a fabulous location with stunning views, very private, great balcony and modernised to a high standard. Very clean and everything in good order. As it was sometimes a little cool in the evening, we especially enjoyed the fabulous open fire!
