About this property

O Lagar do Avô, a Home in Madeira

  • O Lagar do Avô is a house within the Kiwi House property, which also includes the main house, Os Ferreirinhos, and the studio O Miminho, each used independently.

    The property is in a rural environment of traditional farming, with a wide view of the farmland and mountains. It has been in the family for three generations, as a family home and meeting place for grandparents, children and grandchildren, especially at Christmas.

    The house O Lagar do Avô is of modern construction, but its living room preserves an authentic wine press, used by the family for decades, which today evokes the memory of the grandfather. It has an area of around 100 m² and comprises a master bedroom on the ground floor with a double bed (140 × 200 cm) and an open sleeping area on the upper floor, without a door, with three single beds (90 × 180 cm), as well as a living room, two bathrooms, a kitchenette and a terrace.

    It also includes air conditioning, a washing machine, a dishwasher, a refrigerator, a ceramic hob, an oven, a microwave and kitchen utensils, as well as bed linen, towels, a heater, Wi-Fi, a TV with international channels and other amenities for a pleasant and relaxing stay.

8/10 Good

Nice house but bad air quality in bedroom and main bathroom downstairs.

Nice design and colors in the house. The air was not fresh in the downstairs bedroom and especially the main bathroom. These rooms didn’t receive any sun and may have had some mold. So it got in my chest and I had fever and cough the last few days. I would recommend keeping the bathroom fan on all the time, to clean the ceiling and walls in the bathroom. You can also spray diluted white vinegar on ceiling/walls to keep away mold.

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
