Madeira's capital, Funchal, is an enchanting town set on a glittering bay against a background of soaring green mountains. Winding cobbled streets meander between elegant colonial-style buildings, nestling into the shelter of the verdant hillside. Funchal's historic core overlooks the harbour and features some fine government buildings and stately 18th-century mansions. Its deep natural harbour attracted early settlers in the 15th century. What to see. The simple whitewashed Sé Cathedral was built between 1486 and 1514. Inside, its main features are the magnificent mudejar ceiling of Madeira cedar wood and the voluptuous Baroque carving of the golden Sacramento chapel to the right of the main altar. Now a museum, the Quinta das Cruzes on Calçada do Pico is the house where the island's discoverer, João Gonçalves Zarco, once lived. Next door is the pretty 16th century church of Santa Clara where he lies buried. The Old Blandy Wine Lodge occupies part of a former Franciscan friary dating back to the 17th century. Guided visits include a tour of the cellars and a wine-tasting session.
Nearby. Opened to the public in 1960, the Botanical Gardens on the edge of town display plants from all over the world, including desert cacti, rainforest orchids and South African proteas. The famous toboggan ride from Monte to Funchal is an exhilarating experience and takes approximately 20 minutes. Madeiran tobogganing was invented as a form of passenger transport around 1850. Much frequented by Sir Winston Churchill in the 1950s, the pretty fishing village of Câmara de Lobos to the west of Funchal offers spectacular views of the world's second-highest sea cliff, Cabo Girão (589 m). Also within easy reach of Funchal is the deep valley location of Curral das Freiras (Nuns' Refuge) near the centre of the island.

Stayed May 2011, travelled as a couple We spent a week in the lavender cottage, in late May. The apartment is spacious and very clean. It is fully equipped with everything you would need. The bathroom is lovely, with a walk in shower and a bath. The veranda with table and chairs and swing chair, made for a great place to spend an evening BBQing. We spent several evenings in, we like a BBQ and the restaurants are not all that great. It rained one day and we stayed in watching a DVD and reading, the veranda offers shelter so you can sit outside, whatever the weather. The wifi even works outside, if that interests you. it is ideally placed to walk in to the old part of Funchal. The cafe by Riso was our usual haunt for a morning coffee before a stroll into town. (Riso is a must to visit, best restaurant we found). A thoroughly enyoyable holiday. if you're there for more than a week you may want a car to explore the island as Funchal is small. The busses also offer an adventurous means to explore the island. |

Stayed August 2008, travelled as a couple Beautiful newly refurbished villa as of March 2008 in the old town of Funchal set amongst local residence on a quiet street. Beautifully renovated villa consisting of 3 apartments (2 beds,1,1) with original tile and wood flooring, large room sizes, all mod cons (including cooker, cable tv, flat screen tv, dvd player, wireless internet, shared washing machine etc). We stayed in ground floor cottage (cheapest) which was lovely and had a massive bathroom with an amazing 2 person shower. Cristina (the owner) arrives to show you the apartment with a welcome cake and beverages then personally drove us into town to show us around and take us to the supermarket. She also provides info. on local restaurants and attractions with her amazing 2 books on Madeira. Large swimming pool for size of property with beautiful views over Funchal with plenty of deck chairs, hammocks and BBQs for each apartment. Nice to stay out of main hotel district nearer to old town where it was much quieter. Warning to those less fit than us, it is up a steep hill from the town but a taxi ride is only 3-4 euros. Madeira is lovely- very relaxed, everyone is extremely friendly, lots of things to do, highly recommend getting into the mountains and walking. |
