The Madeira region

In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean we find Madeira Island and Porto Santo.

Famous for its friendly people,exceptional naural beauty and a surprisingly mild climate,Madeira Islands are just a short trip from Europe, to a destination where you can combine holidays on the beach, in the mountains or in the city. Madeira is the ideal place to relax and restora the balance of mind and body that you need to face the stress of daily life.

Only 3 hours fly from Engand , and 1,30hour from Lisbon, this Island is adorable for its famous Levada walks, Flower Festival, FEstival of the Atlantic and the famous End of the Year fireworks.

To see more about it , you can look at www.madeiratourism.org.

The Santo da Serra area

Santo da Serra is a small village that belongs to Santa Cruz municipe. It´s a place where you can feel that antique families had holidays,and it´s a place of what we call "Quintas".They are a main big and traditional house,usually from noble families,with their second home to spend holidays,most of them English,very well furnished, with a lot of land around them.

Nowadays,some were already sold,as they are very difficult to keep,and transformed in smaller places,but Santo is still a very beautiful and peacefull place to be.It is that kind of place,with one main road and a church on it. Even though you can find in the centre everything you need for your stay,such as 2 super-markets,a chemist,coffees,bakery,shoeshop,hairdresseres,medical centre,very good and typical restaurants with take away services(you have to order before).

In the centre of the village,there is a public park"Quinta da Junta",where the paths are lined with wonderful blooming camelias.It also has a small variety of animals including deer,horses,goats,and once even a canguru.In this Park you can play tennis in one of its courts.If you prefer to ride,just 1km from the centre,in front of the Golf Course,there is a equitation centre"Quinta de S. Jorge" with a very good restaurant.In the Summer,the nearest beach is just 10minutes far from Santo,eigther in Santa Cruz,or in the very nice city of Machico.Caniçal,a bit far,is a fisher village,with very nice restaurants and a beach too.

Santo da Serra,with the airport a mere ten minutes away,loads of walking trails and Levadas to do nearby.On Sunday,in the village centre,there is a traditional farmer´s market where the locals try to sell their own products.

The new roads that go down towards the motorway means that with an easy drive,Funchal is only about 25minutes away by car.

If you have decided to come to Casa da Lena, you must fly with one of the airline companies, or nowadays, with any of the low coast coming to Madeira.
We can help you booking a car rental of our trust and trying to get you a better price on the market.
As the house is located only 8kmts from the airport, we will send you all the details needed for you to find the house, which, believe me, is very simple.
But, if your flight happens to arrive during the night, don´t worry, we will meet you at the airport and easily lead you to the house.
