About this property
Country Cottage - Cedros, typical Azorien Big House with garden and seaview
In the very quite countrysite you find an old farmhouse with a fantasic seaview, perfect for families with children, small groups or the lovely Holidays for two.
We renovated it for modern comfort but it is still a house with original character.
Hiking and discovering, enjoying nature, exploring the real life like the Azorian, watching the whales, taking a break from everyday life, swimming in the Atlantic Ocean, preparing fresh fish on the barbecue or having a nice meal nearby, a good book borrow from our library (German) and enjoy nature in the garden, there are so many possibilities. If you have any questions, the local administration can always help you. We recommend that you book a rental car at the airport.
Directly at the house but you can also explore the island without a car and just take one of the countless ways up the mountain or down to the village and continue to the cliff. Even the direct ascent to the caldera at 1,000 m altitude is possible.
You want to swim. The Beach Almoxarive is marvelous.
A special natural spectacle is the Capelihos, here the volcanic history of the Azores becomes clear.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Horst and Birgitta Evertz

Both of us worked in Berlin until April 2019, but now we spend most of our time there. If we ourselves are not on Faial because we both like to travel, you will be looked after by our German friends and neighbors.
Why they chose this property
Sea view and the then wild grown garden had taken us. An old stone house with a lot of history and endless possibilities. Since then we could not know that we would build 10 years and also in 1998, an earthquake with considerable destruction would throw us back. Still, we did not regret it.
What makes this property unique
As a city planner / architect I worked until 2019 in urban renewal. When buying in 1995, it was therefore a special charm to save an old farmhouse from decay and to build and prepare it as we ourselves would like to live. Maintaining the natural stone and making it visible in many places was just as important as using local woods. Last but not least, the house offered us the opportunity to furnish it according to our wishes.
