Cozy little house
The bungallow is located in Fajã dos Padres, a very special place in the south coast of Madeira island.
Fajã dos Padres is a small piece of land by the sea, at the bottom of a cliff approximately 250 meters high.
The house is part a small set of ancient houses that were rebuilt over the last years, and is set within a organic farm producing several tropical fruits as well as the famous Madeira wine. The property has also a restaurant, which serves a selection of dishes with origins in the traditional Madeira cuisine.
Rebuilt in 2008 from a previous property wharehouse, Faja dos Padres bungalow is a stone house with a nice exterior patio, and incredible views.
Adventure starts on arrival
Fajã dos Padres can only be reached by sea, or by means of a modern scenic lift.
The lift trip starts at Quinta Grande, and entails approximately 250 meters, experienced in a 4-minute downward travel, along the coast of the huge cliff down to Fajã dos Padres.
Notice that from the road, there are 180 steps down from the top of the cliff to the lift and 180 steps from the lift to the bottom.
Through the lift’s wonderful window, visitors can enjoy each minute of the descent, admire the southern coast of Madeira all the way to Ponta do Sol, the small bay of Fajã which gets nearer every second or, simply, enjoy the view of the sea as far as the sight beholds.
And once arrived to Fajã, guests will benefit from the absence of vehicles in the whole property, and take advantage of the walks in old alleys opened along tropical fruit orchards.
