Casa do Lanço - Tinta Negra by an island apart

A fantastic vacation home with a shared pool and sauna, for a unique experience between wine and forest. The space Casa do Lanço is part of a 25,000m² vineyard estate in a transition zone between the laurel forest and the farmland of São Vicente. The terraced vineyards are home to the Tinta Negra and Verdelho grape varieties, which produce the famous Madeira wine. The property is set in a group of houses where you'll find several gardens with centenary trees, including a large oak tree over 250 years old and several species endemic to the Laurissilva such as tis, vinháticos, barbusanos, and loureiros. The house is decorated with many details, in a fusion between classic and contemporary, following the tradition of a family home. It has a bedroom with two traditional-style single beds and an access door to the outside, so you can wake up to a fantastic view of the yard and gardens. Inside the property, you can enjoy the shared swimming pool and sauna, stroll along the stream and gardens, or relax in the yard outside, where you can have breakfast (not included), made every morning by the caretaker. During your stay, you can take part in the viticulture process or buy the wines available at the house. The main house has belonged to the same family since its inception and retains its original architecture, although it has undergone improvements and modernization. Area The house is located in the north of the island, in Rosário, a parish in the municipality of São Vicente. As it is in a more isolated area, there are no shops in the vicinity. A ten-minute drive from the town of São Vicente, you'll find local shops, restaurants, a supermarket, and a pharmacy. In the vicinity, you have access to several trails and levadas, perfect for exploring the island on foot. The city of Funchal is a 45-minute drive away.
