Quinta Das Eiras

This complex is situated in the village of Santo da Serra, and is the perfect base from which to launch into a real exploration of the island and all the different activities it offers. It is 600 m from the nearest links to the public transport network and the closest shop is the small greengrocer's in the centre of the village about 1 km away. Guests will also find the nearest restaurants and bars 1 km from this establishment and it is 10 km to Santa Cruz. The complex lies just 7 minutes away from Madeira International Airport.This small bungalow complex is a unique and original project which aims to emphasise the less touristy side of the island. Visitors have a chance to explore the characteristics which still preserve Madeira's uniqueness and authenticity - the high mountains and the deep blue sea. This rural tourism resort, classified as 'Casas de Campo' (country house), has been established within the grounds of a private farm, in perfect harmony with nature. There is parking available for those arriving by car.The accommodation is comprised of 'stilt cabins' (referred to as bungalows or mountain shelters), with a woody, rustic feel. They all feature simple decor and come with a basic kitchenette and a compact bathroom with a small shower. They are all furnished in natural colours and have pine walls and floors. These 'cabins' are a cross between a shed, a mountain lodge and a tree house and have steep steps leading up to the bedrooms. The accommodation offers a double bed and is equipped with a TV, a fridge, individually adjustable heating and either a balcony or a terrace.Golf enthusiasts can play a round at Santo da Serra Golf, which is just a 10-minute drive from the complex.Quinta dasEiras is a cash only property - no credit cards accepted.
