About this property

Villa Achada da Mouca by Madeira Sun Travel

In the emblematic area of Santana, Villa Achada da Mouca is the perfect retreat for a refuge from the everyday life. Stop, breathe, and be welcome!
In addition to being surrounded by all the nature that so well characterizes the island, it is also surrounded by beautiful gardens ideal for recharging batteries, relaxing and reconnecting with mother nature. Framing the gardens, we have several reading and leisure corners, an inviting porch and also the barbecue with winter garden that anticipates the house.
Of rural and rustic style, this house is cosy, comfortable and convenient. It is divided into 2 bedrooms, one ensuite with a double bed and the other with two separate beds, both with plenty of natural light and views over the garden. Also overlooking the garden and with direct access to the exterior we have the living room and its warm decoration. In the less hot days you can even use the fireplace that is here and enjoy this cosy atmosphere.
Still on this floor you will find the kitchen and dining area, also very well prepared with all the facilities you need for a pleasant stay. In the last floor of the house you will find a lounge with a secular wine cellar and billiard table.
Although the property offers two private parking spaces, you won't need your car to explore all the natural attractions within walking distance of your accommodation. With a walk "for all", the idyllic Queimadas area is an inviting 2 km from the property. This short walk that starts literally on your doorstep is just the first of the many trails in the area.
These paths, which are both iconic and recommended, unfold among the nature of this parish in a thousand of options, among these you have the Levada do Caldeirão Verde and the Levada do Caldeirão do Inferno that are a must visit. The Levada do Rei, Levada da Silveira and the Aguage (or Água D'alto) Waterfall are some other natural attractions of this area.
Forest parks with picnic areas, viewpoints as far as the eye can see, Madeira Theme Park and, of course, the typical houses of Santana are what make this county the best choice when visiting the island!

We also wish to inform you that check-ins after 10.00p.m. have an extra cost of 20 euros meant to be paid in cash to the host at the arrival time.

Une maison calme et chaude dans la serra, mais sombre
La maison est à 900 m. d’altitude, au niveau de Queimadas que l’on rejoint le long d’une levada, à 2 km, et près de la route montant au Ruivo. Elle est au milieu des arbres, et a un beau jardin. C’est une maison d’autrefois aux murs de grosses pierres recouverts de boiseries à l’intérieur. Elle est aménagée de façon moderne, tout le confort s’y trouve, elle est chauffée par des radiateurs soufflants situés en hauteur, utiles dès qu’on est à l’intérieur, du fait de températures entre 14° et 10° en janvier, en tout cas au début de janvier 2024. Elle dispose d’une cheminée en insert, agréable le soir, avec le bois mis à disposition. De multiples objets, accrochés aux murs posés sur les étagères ou suspendus au plafond créent un décor vivant et omniprésent un peu déroutant au début, mais qui fait la personnalité de cette maison, en fait attachante. Le défaut réside dans le fait que les pièces à vivre sont sombres, exigeant l’éclairage même en plein jour et même quand il fait beau, mais probablement agréable pour sa fraîcheur en été. Garer la voiture se fait par un plan incliné raide, auquel il faut s’habituer. Les personnes de l’agence de location ont été du début à la fin remarquables de courtoisie et de précision, joignables et nous joignant selon les besoins, y compris dimanche et premier janvier. Globalement un bon séjour, la maison est bien, plusieurs lieux de marche à proximité, se rendre à Santana par la route en lacets est assez rapide, dans les 10 mn.
