Fantastic vacation home with shared swimming pool and sauna for a unique experience between wine and forest.

Casa do Lanço is part of a 25,000m² vineyard estate in a transition zone between the Laurissilva forest and the farmland of São Vicente. The terraced vineyards are home to the Tinta Negra and Verdelho grape varieties, which produce the famous Madeira wine. The property is set in a group of houses where you'll find several gardens with centuries-old trees, including a large oak tree over 250 years old and several endemic species of laurel forest such as tis, vinháticos, barbusanos, and loureiros. The house is decorated with various details, in a fusion between classic and contemporary, following the tradition of a family home. It has a bedroom with two traditional-style single beds and an access door to the outside, so you can wake up to a fantastic view of the yard and gardens. Inside the property, you can enjoy the shared swimming pool and sauna, stroll along the stream and gardens, or relax in the backyard, where you can have breakfast (not included), prepared every morning by the caretaker. During your stay, you can take part in the viticulture process at harvest time or buy the wines available at the house. AREA The house is located in the north of the island, more precisely in Rosário, a parish in the municipality of São Vicente. As it is in a more isolated area, there are no shops in the vicinity of the property. A ten-minute drive from the town of São Vicente, you'll find local shops, restaurants, a supermarket and a pharmacy. In the vicinity of the house you have access to several trails and levadas, where you can take the opportunity to stroll and explore our fantastic island on foot. If you want to find other places or activities, the city of Funchal is a 45-minute drive away.

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt in Sao Vicente! Die Unterkunft ist malerisch gelegen, beim Ankommen begrüßen einen ein Hund, eine Katze und aus etwas Entfernung sogar ein Huhn. Die Sauna und der Pool waren toll und beide hatten einen super schönen Blick auf die Berge und ins Tal. Wer die Unterkunft bucht, muss sich natürlich bewusst sein, dass sie etwas außerhalb liegt und das Wetter auf der Nordseite oft schlechter ist als in Funchal oder generell auf der Südseite. Mit dem Auto ist aber alles leicht zu erreichen und wir sind immer wieder gerne zurück in diese malerische Unterkunft gefahren. Die Wohnung ist nur minimal feucht, einfach weil der Norden auch feuchter ist. Ich hatte ein Lavendelspray dabei, was den Geruch gut überdeckt hat und es hat uns gar nicht gestört. Wir würden die Unterkunft jederzeit wieder buchen.

Absolutely stunning setting - from the pool the view across the valley is gorgeous. Just outside our premises (Verdhelo) the view is lovely too. The site is quiet and natural. We had the company of a gorgeous dog and orange cat - they grumbled at each other a bit but as animal lovers we adored their company. Please feed them if you stay here as they are part of the fabric. The cottage itself was decorated very classily, with wood and green tones. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen a good size for two people. It's a lovely place to relax and forget the world. Sao Vicente itself is very interesting - we recommend doing the 3 PR laveda trails in the valley.

We loved staying in a beautiful house in the mountains. Not far from shops, you'll enjoy a peaceful environment and a beautiful (shared) swimming pool with view. We liked hiking on the PR16 which starts 5 minutes away from the house. The only improvement would be a queen/king bed in the bedroom instead of two simple beds together.

Prachtige locatie, rustig, genoeg privacy! Wel niet zo proper als op de foto’s, terras buiten kon wel wat onderhoud gebruiken maar voor de rest geen opmerkingen.

Le cadre et le logement sont magnifiques, un vrai havre de paix et de verdure. Le sauna, la piscine et le jardin sont très bien entretenus ! Parfaitement situé pour visiter la côte nord. La procédure d’arrivée se fait via une autre plate-forme ce qui n’est pas simple ni fluide. Il faut tolérer la présence de chats et de chien car 2 animaux sont en permanence sur la propriété.
