O Lagar do Avo, a Home in Madeira

The “Kiwi House” property includes the main house “Os Ferrerinhos” and a second accommodation unit “O Lagar do Avô”, with independent use, which can accommodate a total of 14 guests in the two accommodations.
The main house was built in the 1930s and was more recently expanded and adapted for tourist accommodation, ensuring comfort conditions and sustainability principles in the management of energy, water and waste, but retaining several elements of authenticity of rural houses of the mid-twentieth century, namely furniture, windows, doors, floors and ceilings. The second building has a more modern construction but preserves in the living room an authentic wine press, which was used for decades by the family, and which today evokes the memory of the grandfather.
The property has been in the family for three generations and has been a family home and a regular meeting place for grandparents, children and grandchildren, especially at Christmas.
This property is in a rural environment that maintains traditional farming practices and has a wide view of the surrounding agricultural land and the mountains.
O Lagar do Avô is an independent accommodation unit with an area of 100 m2 and comprises a main bedroom on the ground floor with a double bed and a bedroom on the upper floor with three single beds, as well as a living room, two bathrooms, a kitchenette and a terrace overlooking the farmland and mountains.
This accommodation is equipped with air conditioning, a fridge, stove, microwave, dishwasher and kitchenware, as well as bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi, TV with international and children's channels, and other amenities to provide a pleasant and relaxed stay.

LOCATION
The property is in a rural area surrounded by agricultural land, close to the center of the village of São Jorge, in the northern part of the island of Madeira.
A few kilometers away, there are impressive cliffs, mountains and Laurissilva forest for nature lovers and hikers, as well as other attractions.
At about 1500 meters, a recommended pedestrian path begins, “Levada do Rei”. At 400 meters there is a restaurant and tea house, but within a radius of 1500 meters it is possible to find other restaurants and cafes. At 950 meters there is a grocery store.
The property has easy access to the main roads.

REMARKS
We are available to provide support during your stay, to recommend places and activities you may like and to find solutions for your needs. We can recommend activities to discover the island off the usual tourist circuits.
A car is recommended to this location. The accommodation does not have parking, but it is possible to park on the side of the road next to the entrance.
Cleaning is done before guests check in and then there is a weekly maintenance cleaning, which includes the change of bed linen and towels. To increase the frequency, an additional cleaning service must be requested.
As it is a rural area, there is potential for noise caused by dogs and other domestic animals in neighbouring properties. There are also insects in the surroundings that can be attracted by food scraps.
The accommodation is officially registered, meets the requirements to ensure safety and comfort, and has a complaints book controlled by the competent authorities.

CONDITIONS
1. Parties or behaviour that disturb the peace and well-being of neighbours are not allowed, especially between 10 pm and 8 am when neighbourhood noise is prohibited.
2. An online check-in form will be sent to collect essential identification data for check-in, arrival time and means of transport, which must be submitted by guests at least two days before arrival.
3. Self-check-in with flexible arrival time is available via a key lockbox whose code is created and sent on the day of arrival. For face-to-face check-in, it is necessary to schedule the time and the waiting time is 60 minutes, after which a new time can be scheduled according to our availability.
4. Guests may be required to present identification upon arrival and provide missing identification details to comply with legal requirements.
5. The number of guests must be informed in the reservation and can be changed up to the limit of the capacity of the accommodation with an additional price. From 2 guests, the price increases by up to 10% per guest.

Entspannt und ruhig
Die Wohnung ist wie auf den Bildern und außerdem sehr ruhig gelegen. Guter Startpunkt für Ausflüge in den Norden der Insel. Allerdings bedeutet Norden nicht jeden Tag Sonnenschein. Es war häufig bewölkt und hat auch geregnet, was aber ganz angenehm war, weil es trotzdem warm ist. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Es gibt eine Nespresso-Kapsel-Kaffeemaschine. In jedem Raum ist eine Klimaanlage, wir haben sie aber nur im Schlafzimmer gebraucht. Die Kommunikation war super schnell und sehr hilfsbereit.

bel emplacement, a connecter avec la maison dans le même emplacement
Pris seul c'est quand même très cher > 1000 euros la semaine, pour un equipement un peu limite: peu de vaisselle, des porte coulissante qui ne tienne pas trop. Des climatisations pas très utile pour ce côté de l'île. ce logement est bien si on le couple avec l'autre maison disponible sur le même terrain sur abritel et qui permet au total d’accueillir 14 personnes, cette maison a un bon rapport qualité prix. Mais je n'ai pas compris pourquoi les 2 maisons ne sont pas disponibles sur la même plateform
