Located in the idyllic area of Raposeira Fajã da Ovelha, country holidays with sea views.

This pleasant country house, located in Raposeira, Fajã da Ovelha, is the ideal place for a country holiday. Built in stone in the Madeiran style, with wooden floors, this is a rustic and welcoming place for a relaxing holiday with friends or family. With two bedrooms, both with double beds, and two bathrooms (one with a shower and the other with a bath), the house can accommodate a maximum of four people. Outside the house is a beautiful garden where you can enjoy sunbathing or reading a book and relaxing time. If you want to put your culinary skills to the test, this house has a barbecue area available in the annex. Finally, don't forget to take advantage of the fantastic sunsets at the end of the day. If you are renting a car, the property has a parking spot. AREA The Raposeira site in Fajã da Ovelha offers peace and quiet. The countryside is perfect for letting go of stress and enjoying moments of calm and peace, in a kind of city 'reset'. With great sun exposure all year round, the municipality of Calheta is also inviting you to set off and discover Madeira Island. A 15-minute drive will bring you to the centre of Calheta, where you'll find the yellow sand beach, several restaurants, a supermarket and the fantastic Museum of Contemporary Art - Casa das Mudas. Jardim do Mar and Paul do Mar are about 20 minutes away by car. These two small villages offer a beach, bars, restaurants and a beauty all of their own. Small local bars can be found nearby.

Nice house to relax for a nice holiday… Perhaps a good airco systeem and a little bit better mattrass would be a plus but overall a very good place to spend your holiday .

Uns hat der Aufenthalt sehr gut gefallen. Das Haus bietet viel Platz und ist sehr schön eingerichtet. Einzig die Hunde des Nachbarn haben uns manchmal gestört.

Der Garten benötigt unbedingt Zuwendung und es fehlt eindeutig eine Sitzgelegenheit und ein Sonnenschirm. Wir haben uns trotzdem wohlgefühlt. Madeira ist eine tolle und sehr vielfältige Insel. Wichtig, dass obere Bad ist nicht für große Menschen geeignet, durch seine Dachschräge sollte man nicht größer als 1.60 m sein sonst stößt man sich den Kopf.

The house was beautyfull, lots of nice athmosfere places where we liked to sit and chill down. We were a lot at the house cause of also working there, so the extra space seperated from the house was really nice for us. Also the garden was full of colours and the neighbourhoud was nice with mostly locals and not tourististic at all. There was one big disadvantage and that were the dogs of our neigbours across the street. These 2 dogs sounds interrupted us a lot, also in the mornings. One other good thing to know is that the house is on the mountain so there is many chance of wind and rain. The sun comes definetely as well, but it can change very quickly. All with all, we loved the house itselves and that it is between the local people, only the dogs were a minus. Love Wendy & Wouter

Logement tout confort et très propre ! Le logement est assez isolé donc au calme (excepté les chiens des voisins d'en face qui aboient à chaque mouvement). Lors de notre séjour, nous avons eu beaucoup de pluie. Nous n'avons pas pu profiter du jardin extérieur mais nous nous sommes servis du poêle et des chauffages d'appoint très pratiques et utiles pour lutter contre le froid et l'humidité. La véranda est un vrai plus en cas de météo favorable ... dommage que nous n'ayons pas pu en profiter plus que ça ! Très bon séjour globalement ! Merci.

Das Haus bietet alles, was man benötigt. Zwischendrin wurden sogar einmal die Handtücher und Bettwäsche gewechselt. Die Schlösser könnten einen Tropfen Öl gebrauchen, da braucht man Geduld und die Hoffnung, sie nicht abzubrechen. Die Ausstattung ist wie benannt und alles ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Lage ist toll und die Nachbarschaft ebenfalls. Zwar muss man immer fahren, wenn man Essen gehen will, aber dafür hat man seine Ruhe. Wir waren im Winter da und würden den Sommer nochmal gerne wiederkommen, um den tollen Garten zu genießen. Die Besitzer waren kurz zur Gartenarbeit da, haben uns aber dann noch Früchte da gelassen. Total nett. Über die paar Spinnenweben sieht man bei all den positiven Dingen einfach hinweg. Die Bäder waren top sauber!
