Ivy Cottage by Madeira Sun Travel

Completely surrounded by nature and located on the North coast, this accommodation is a retreat for those who want to forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
In an idyllic setting and surrounded by a primeval forest, here you will find several activities in nature such as hiking, levada walks, picnic parks and much more.
Inside, it is divided between 2 double bedrooms and a mezzanine that can accommodate 4 people. On the ground floor the nice living room and kitchen are arranged in open space in order to promote socializing among all.
Outside you can find a barbecue properly equipped and with a beautiful view over the valley!
The location of the house is great for those who want to feel like a real local since it is in the most rural and remote areas of the island. In Fajã Grande you can visit one of the oldest and most romantic bridges of the whole island, known as Ponte Velha, several viewpoints such as Miradouro do Encontro or Miradouro do Cabouco are also very close to the house.
Just a few minutes drive away you can be in the heart of the Laurissilva Forest in Ribeiro Frio area. Levadas such as Os Balcões, Portela and even Chão das Feiteiras are just some of the trails that surround this area.
On the other hand, Faial is also part of Santana, which is a must-see place for all who visit us, whether for the typical and unmistakable Santana houses, the local cuisine, or the calmness that surrounds these lands.
Another area with growing popularity is the parish of Porto da Cruz where surfers, tourists and locals enjoy its rebellious nature and beautiful beaches.
One of the best ways to get to know these less explored parts is undoubtedly by 4x4 off-road tracks. However, car rental is recommended for the day to day.
Madeira Sun Travel, is one of the main short-term rental management companies on the island of Madeira. Since 2017, we manage a significant amount of accommodations throughout the archipelago with the satisfaction of our clients as the main goal.
The Madeira Sun Travel team is composed with several professionals linked to the tourism industry, who daily strive to provide excellence from the booking to the check-out.
"Our work translates into the recognition of our guests who share their experience in their reviews!”
Welcome to Madeira Island and we wish you an excellent stay with us!

Cozy cottage in the middle of nowhere
It’s a nice cottage with almost everything you need for a good time. Unfortunately is there a terrible smell in the house. In the very small village are a lot of different animals living. So it can happen that dogs or sheep wake u up. Next to this u can hear the airplanes from the airport even if it’s “far” away. Maybe that depends on the wind. Unfortunately there is no fire wood for the fire place and we didn’t find a spot to buy it. In our first accomodating it was included. It would have been much more easier and warmer to head up the place with fire. We booked the house with the two of us and from my point of view it’s pretty small for a group of 8 people. The bathroom is really small and the shower not really nice. I had another idea of the cottage regarding to the really high price we paid. From my point of the price-performance ratio is not fair, that’s what’s make me disappointed about the stay. The company is nice, the even gave us a new years present.
