:: ABOUT MADEIRA

Madeira is often referred to as the floating garden of the Atlantic. The Portuguese island of Madeira lies in the Atlantic, off the coast of north-west Africa. It is a beautiful holiday island with some of the best holiday homes in Europe. Many of the holiday villas are set against the stunning backdrop of the island’s rugged mountains, which drop down into the ocean. The island is covered with flowers and is the home to beautiful gardens bursting with orchids and bougainvillea. It is possible to rent holiday cottages that have superb gardens. Holiday farm houses may also be rented and many of these holiday homes sit perched in the mountain side in picture-postcard villages. The climate of Madeira is sub-tropical, with hot summers, mild winters. It is a very popular family holiday home destination due to the beautiful sandy beaches and the warm sea temperatures that are maintained all year round by the influence of the Gulf stream. Funchal is the capital of Madeira and many families stay here in self catering apartments. They find that these holiday apartments make the perfect holiday base to explore the island’s architecture. Popular local dishes with familes on vacation are Espetada, beef kebabs seasoned with bay leaves, or the traditional dish, Espada Preta, fish usually cooked with bananas. Another local speciality is pork, marinated with garlic and wine.
