Charming three bedroom cottage with a pretty garden and free private parking

We are the family caretakers of Casa Borboleta. We have lived on the Island for almost 20 years. We are passionate about Madeira. Our daughter was born here 9 years ago and our passion has doubled. We love walking, swimming and enjoying the fabulous local dishes and drinks. And we love to share our knowledge of Madeira. We enjoy meeting people and are alwasy on hand to help if you need us. Come see us soon :)

Casa Borboleta was recently bought by our friends who fell in love with the Island as did we - 18 years ago. The property is a traditional build with lots of character, a lovely garden space with terrace and beautiful sea views. You are among the locals and a short drive from the hub of Calheta and of course you have us to help if you need :)

It is difficult to experience the older traditions of Madeira in the larger and bigger towns. The area is rural and very typical of Madeira and the property has unique feathers including two peak roofs in two of the double bedrooms. An old stone oven is still in tack although not in use, and no doubt a modern oven is far more apealing. You can only image how the families of the past cooked their meals. There is an element of history about this property that adds to the allure.
