Levada walks, golf and swimming nearby
The cottage is the ideal base to explore the beautiful island of Madeira, its strategic location in the heart of Funchal means it is just by the seaside were you can swim, water ski, scuba dive, sail and much more. The 2 golf courses are very near, Palheiro Golf is just 10min away and Santo da Serra Golf is just 20min away. Madeira is a walkers paradise and from here you can reach the mountains and discover the levada trails. A bus stop is just 10 metres below the house, and the main road to the airport is very easy to catch.

Fantastic experience!

Review Submitted: March 03, 2008, Date of stay: February, 2008
We have just returned from two weeks in Funchal, where we stayed in the Painter's Cottage. It was the best vacation we have ever taken! We have traveled to many countries on several continents and are well familiar with five star hotels (we stayed last year in a five star hotel in Funchal) as well as country bed & breakfasts. The Painter's Cottage was one of our best experiences ever. First, the location is ideal: it is close to (and above) the Old Town, which is bristling with many great restaurants and food/wine stores. It is high enough up the hill to give a magnificent view (especially from the large, private terrace) but not too high to access from the Old Town/waterfront by foot. We only took the bus back once (when we were especially tired from a long, active day) and the bus stopped very close to our street. There are no fewer than five buses that will take you up the hill. If you choose to walk up, we learned that the route using the Conde Carvalhal was the gentlest. I'm 70 and it was do-able for me, so that gives you an idea.
The street is quiet and attractive. The owner's house is just below, within the same compound, but distinct. The Pool Flat is below the Painter's Cottage and has a separate entrance. It's possible to spend your entire visit without even seeing the other occupants. The terrace off the Painter's Cottage is private and can only be accessed by you.
The apartment itself is delicious: while it is only 40 sq.meters, the rooms seem more spacious than that. The living room also has a small kitchen (more than adequate for simple meals) as well as the terrace joining at the other end. The entire wall leading to the terrace is glass, with big French doors you can open and actually bring the "outside in".
The terrace looks south, towards the ocean and harbor, but the view also encompasses some of the hills of the "amphitheater" of Funchal. The furniture throughout is comfortable and functional. There is a TV with sky-cable access. The bed is very comfortable (although it is a double-size--which we found fine).
Having read the review that was so bad, I can only assume those people should stay in a hotel. Some people prefer the sterility (and uniformity) of that experience to staying in an apartment. I can't understand their complaints at all! This is one of the nicest places imaginable! We plan to go again and stay for twice as long!
