Mountain Cottage - Away from it all!

Achadinha is a typical Madeiran house, built with local basaltic stones, with two stories. It is a simple and genuine haven in the mountains, for those looking for a peaceful escape away from the stressful city life, at one step from Madeiran Laurissilva forest (World Heritage by UNESCO), Rabaçal and the famous 25 Fontes and Risco levada walks. Discover Madeira Island in this confortable cottage, just like at home!

Cottage Achadinha, which has been carefully and eco-friendly restored with love and care by our Family Gouveia, suits the natural environment and is surrounded by gardens. Around the house there are several flowered terraces, where you can see the landscape from different perspectives: a picturesque setting with rural houses and the Atlantic ocean in front. You can feel the smell of the flowers and discover our agricultural land with fruit trees and aromatic herbs.

If you like to kick back, to relax, to contemplate breathtaking sunsets and to immerse yourself in a local and typical Madeiran experience, Cottage Achadinha is a good option for you! It is a familiar, romantic and peaceful place, away from it all.

The house has a kitchen, a living room with fireplace, two bedrooms and two bathrooms with shower. The master bedroom, on the upper mezzanine level, is quite cosy and unique and can accommodate two persons in a double size bed (1,50m x 2,00m). The construction with local resources, in stone and wood, resembles a rustic stable. The house has some old details that have been passed down from generation to generation. The creativity of combining all these relics into a harmonious composition makes the cottage even more special - where magic seems to happen!

A barbecue area, at the top of the garden, contributes to make the outdoor space even more pleasant and liveable. In this area you will find table and chairs, so you can enjoy some meals outside!

The cottage is really close to Levada Nova (it can be reached within walking distance), great to do some walks and to discover the surroundings! The nearest supermarket is 7 mins away by car (in Loreto).
