The manor has been thoroughly renovated in 2002, preserving its original style of classical romantic atmosphere of the vintage years, now including all modern conveniences (internet, Wi-Fi, cable and satellite television, swimming pool, billiards).
The building is more than 1000 square meters; the land is more than 5000 square meters.
The St. Johns Mountain, where the manor is located, is a picturesque place with clean and fresh air, and beautiful ocean and mountain views. Walking trails in the eucalyptus forests are located within easy reach.
The manor is located in the quiet rural area, aside of the busy roads and noisy cities, though only 20 minutes drive from the center of Funchal – the capital of Madeira, and 40 minutes drive from the airport.
Currently it is an active 15 room’s hotel for eco tourists and people who admire peaceful and quite vacation spots, popular among guests from Western Europe.
