Casa das Videiras-Holiday Cottage
Casa das Videiras
Casa das Videiras is situated in the middle of the picturesque village of Seixal.
The village is an agricultural and fishing village. The village people are charming, natural and hospitable, and they are not yet run over with the tourist trade. Please note that Casa das Videiras is not a noble mansion where you are secluded from the world. If you are searching for this, please see our other houses.
Ours is a restored village home in the middle of a living village, with its beauty and ugliness of daily village life just next to you. You are near the locals going to work, relaxing, the different village feasts and traditions. Should we call it “reality tourism”?
The Main house is from the 19th century and rebuilt in the 1990.
This was a neat local home which had almost fallen into ruins. It was restored and amplified with tree bed rooms and luxury living areas. It is decorated with a mixture of Portuguese style and inspirations and artifacts from the owner’s life in Norway, India and in the Middle East. The guests are free to use the kitchen. In addition you find the garden cottage, a small house for the couple loving their privacy.
There are several good local restaurants and bars near the house.
Try the fish specialties, and do not forget the local vine. The typical Madeira vine can be a bit strong, so be careful with the number of glasses. The name Casa das Videiras is named after the vine plant.

Location / How to get there
The village Seixal is a 40 minutes drive from Funchal. It is situated on the majestic north coast of the island. The house is in the middle of the old fashioned village where you will find the rural life long time forgotten. Still, there is plenty to do for the active guest. There are restaurants, bars, small shops (we can not call this a super market) near by. 100 meters to the sea, 500 meters to the natural pools and 800 meters to the beautiful black sandy. Going up, it takes you a few minutes by foot to get into the natural and exotic laurel forest, a declared world heritage by UNESCO.
From the airport you take the highway to Funchal (15 min).
Just before entering the city you will find signs, direction Ribeira Brava.
Follow this way to the end of the highway (10 min), there you leave the Ribeira Brava road, turn right and go to São Vicente (15 min).
Go all the way down to the coast.
Here you turn left and go along the coast to Seixal (7 min).
In Seixal, just before the church, take the road to the port on your right hand side.
Just before the last curve, in front to the left, there is a sign, Casa das Videiras.
Go left and you will find a parking place and the Casa das Videiras.
