It would be easy to spend all your time outside this villa, with its spectacular views over the Mediterranean and large terrace. Go for a swim in the pool, relax on a sun lounger, or chill out with a refreshing drink on the outdoor seating. For lunch, walk to the peaceful village of Faja de Ovelhua to pick up some fresh Madeiran produce, or drive a little further to the busier municipality of Calheta. Back at the villa, make the most of the pizza oven or traditional brick barbecue to cook up a delicious meal to enjoy al fresco.
