Typical Madeiran House in Calheta, Madeira

This picturesque house is very comfortable, spread over three levels, with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 spacious living/dining room and a small, restored wine cellar. We can boast a fully equipped rustic, yet very modern kitchen equipped with stove, oven, washing machine, kettle, toaster and fridge, plus a large kitchen table for everyday meals. You will enjoy a typical “Espetada” (even in rainy days) with the cosy indoor BBQ. On the lower ground floor there is also a garage for two cars.
You can also find a dining room with a unique handmade dining table and a cosy living room with satellite & cable TV channels and also a DVD player and a sound system ready for you to enjoy your favourite movies. Our Internet access service has a Wi-Fi/Wireless system that allows wireless access to the Internet anywhere in the house, in a simple and convenient way. On the first floor’s two guest bedrooms, fully equipped with sheets and blankets, and you can also ask for a baby cot (free of charge).


The main large lounge opens onto a sunny terrace, ideal to sit out with a coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening and simply enjoy the serenity of the place.
If you're travelling in the summer don't forget to try our tasty grapes, selected from the grape varieties planted in Madeira, and enjoy our unique and irresistible passion fruit.

The property is safe for children, and our house has comprehensive safety/security and has been fully inspected by the local authority and tourist office granted an “Alojamento Local” AL (Local accommodation) license.

Perfect for just the two of us. Tastefully decorated and very roomy. Off the beaten tourist track which suited us down to the ground. Another couple staying with us, though, would've presented bathroom difficulties. Steep flight of stairs to bedrooms could be tricky for anyone with mobility problems. We'd definitely consider going back!

A wonderful house in Calheta!
This is a very nice place to stay. The house has been beautifully restored in authentic style. We enjoyed staying in Calheta where there is a nice beach with marina and restaurants. Our hosts were very welcoming and accommodating. I would recommend this rental if you are looking to stay outside of Funchal and have a car.

Lovely traditional madeiran house
Our stay in Madeira was perfect as we were lucky enough to stay in this beautiful house. It is very clean ,spacious,light and quiet. You will need a car to get about but very easy to navigate your way around the island from this location .Has a double garage to keep the car safely away at night even though every area we went seemed safe and the people lovely .The owners were very helpful on ideas of places to go and when we had a problem with a exterior door not shutting they got to the cottage quickly to sort it out for us . We would highly recommended this property

Wonderful holiday location
We had a fantastic time staying at this house - it had everything we needed for our stay. Plenty of room, inside & out and the garage was useful to keep the car cool out of the sun! Ana was very helpful, right from reserving the house to collecting the keys at the end of our stay. Madeira is full of lovely places to visit and this is a great base to do it from.

The house was lovely
The house was lovely and the views great. The house had everything we needed. The sun shone for us. We had an issue with a constantly barking dog next door, even through the night which seemed to be an issue throughout the Island. Overall good stay

A great holiday home base
The Casa dos Serroes is a lovely holiday home to have as a Madeiran touring base. It's near the south west coast and benefits from the best of variable Madeiran weather on the day and, like any other place, is central to most parts of the island. There is a local shop and bar around the corner which has almost everything you will need. We loved the basement garage and the patio and got used to the downstairs bathroom. Recommended!

Gemütliches Ferienhaus auf einer traumhaften Insel
Wir haben in dem schönen Ferienhaus eine wundervolle Zeit auf der traumhaften Insel Madeira verbracht. Das Haus war sauber, zweckmäßig eingerichtet, alles war funktional. Die von anderen Gästen beschriebenen Begrüßungsgesten waren ins leider nicht zugeteilt, was aber nicht schlimm war. Das Haus befand sich in Hanglage in einem kleinen Wohngebiet abseits der Hauptstraße. Ab und zu ist ein Auto vorbei gefahren, was aber selten vorkam. Etwas unangenehm waren die teils lauten Nachbarn, die mitunter einen freien Blick auf die sonst wunderschöne Terrasse mit teilweisen Meerblick hatten. Ein Sichtschutz wäre wünschenswert gewesen. Praktisch war auch die zum Haus gehörige Garage, die unmittelbar einen Zugang zum Haus hatte. Ein Mietauto ist sowieso ein Muss. Ansonsten bekommt man nicht viel mit von der Insel. 50 m Weg vom Haus befindet sich eine kleine Einkaufsmöglichkeit, wo man aber alles bekam, was man brauchte. Auch waren zwei Restaurants unmittelbar in der Nähe. Zusammenfassend kann man das Ferienhaus wirklich weiterempfehlen. Wir haben uns insgesamt wohl gefühlt mit den oben genannten Einschränkungen.

Authentisches Haus mit hohem Wohlfühlfaktor
Wenn man echtes Madeira-Flair möchte, ist man in diesem authentischen Haus mit viel Atmosphäre genau richtig! Wir haben uns auf Anhieb in diesen gemütlichen Natursteinwänden wohlgefühlt. Die Räume sind picobello sauber und liebevoll hergerichtet. Die Küche und das Bad sind schon etwas älter, aber sauber und funktional. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Wir wurden mit einer Flasche Madeira und einem schönen Obstkorb begrüßt. Schlüsselübergabe und Betreuung waren perfekt. Besonders erwähnenswert ist die praktische Tiefgarage mit direktem Zugang zum Haus und die riesige Terrasse mit Blick auf Meer und Weinberge. Wir haben kurz vor Weihnachten nahezu täglich auf der Terrasse gefrühstückt. Das Haus ist super ruhig, aber dennoch gut gelegen. Kurze Wege ans Meer, in die Berge oder zur nächsten Levada. Kleiner Supermarkt direkt um die Ecke, Almas Wine-Bar ebenso. Trotzdem ist ein Mietwagen unbedingt zu empfehlen! Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen bestimmt noch einmal wieder!!!

Haus in Calheta
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt im März 2020 sehr genossen. Das Haus ist sehr geräumig und gut eingerichtet. Die Terrasse ist riesig, sonnig und ein Teil der Terrasse ist ein großes Blumenbeet voller blühender Rosen und Hortensien. Unter der Terrasse befindet sich die sehr großzügige Garage, die wir gern genutzt haben. Ohne Leihwagen geht es kaum, das Höhenprofil der Insel ist ziemlich extrem... Auch in den Räumen haben wir uns wohlgefühlt, allein der große, alte fantastische Esstisch.. Luft nach oben sehen wir bei den Küchengeratschaften, da ist das eine oder andere etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Insgesamt waren wir aber absolut zufrieden und würden das Haus jederzeit wieder buchen. Vielen Dank auch für die gefüllte Obstschale und den Begrüßungswein!

Bereits zum zweiten Mal, habe ich dieses schöne Ferienhaus genossen. Es liegt ruhig am Hang, mit wunderbarem Blick von der Terrasse auf die Weinreben, die Hügel und das Meer. Das Haus ist perfekt ausgerüstet, es ist alles vorhanden, wie vom Vermieter angeboten. Ana hat uns persönlich begrüsst und wieder wertvolle Tips für Ausflüge auf der Insel gegeben. Wir werden dieses schöne Ferienhaus sicher wieder besuchen.
