Palheiro do Covão cottage.
Description
Cottage located by the mountains of Câmara de Lobos in Madeira Island, with a view to the Atlantic ocean and to the west coast of Funchal. The house is just for you and your companion. You will not have to share it with other persons. From June 2025: Now with a private parking spot in a flat area, about 250m from the house. Wifi internet in all the house. Cable TV service in the living room. Please read carefully all informations before booking. Here you can relax and connect with nature. The space Built in the tradicional way, this cottage uses stone and wood as main materials. The house has one bedroom, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. It has also another area where you can cook bread or make a barbecue. There are no doors dividing the bedroom and the living room and kitchen. The rest of the property is agricultural space with vineyards. Guest access Full access to the house and the property. You can use the kitchen, the bathroom, the living rooms, the fireplace, the oven and the other things. If you come, you'll be the only one(s) living in the cottage. Other things to note The tap water is drinkable. If you come with your baby, we can provide you a baby crib. The check-in and checkout hours are not rigid but you should stick to them if there's other guests coming or leaving the same day. There's three portable oil heaters you can move around the house if you feel cold. If you come in August/September there's a chance it can coincide with the grapes harvesting around the house. OTHER IMPORTANT NOTES: The cottage is surrounded by vines and other plants. These, as normal loose leafs in winter and so, the present situation of these may differ from the pictures. Since the house is surrounded by vineyards and other plantations, it is normal to see animals and insects in the surroundings. These cannot be monitored and live in freedom so it is acceptable that they can sometimes enter the house. It's not because the house is dirty, it's just like that. Don't worry, there are no poisonous or dangerous animals in Madeira and none of them will harm you. Among them are geckos, ants, caterpillars, little spiders, cockroaches, centipedes or even small birds. On the roof of the bedroom you should hear small noises when a bird lands there or a lizard passes by. Just relax. This is a country house and not a city center apartment. If you are easily scared by a bug or small noise and don't feel comfortable, please don't choose to book this house in your visit to Madeira. There are about 30 steps to get up to the house so if you are physically challenged this will be a problem. There is a cat (and sometimes more than one) that is not ours nor does it belong to the house but that appears very often and likes to interact with guests. We don't let him into the house but it could/should happen. Keep this in mind if you are allergic or uncomfortable with cats. In a neighboring house there are dogs and with that some noise when they bark. Other animals may also make noise such as crickets or birds. During the winter the humidity increases and the temperature in the house is lower. Keep this in mind because the walls of this house are made of stone. The road closest to the house is very steep and should be where you will find a parking space. If you are not used to these types of roads, which are common on the island, this will be an inconvenience. You must be a good driver and feel at ease. We will not accept reservation cancellations after guests have entered the house if they are related to any of the points described above. Please read the entire ad carefully before booking.
