Located in an old embroidery factory, right in the heart of Funchal, this modern apartment is the perfect base from which to explore Madeira’s capital city and textile history – you’ll find little reminders of the island’s needlework past dotted around the home. The archipelago is known for its year-round sunshine and your hosts have ensured you won’t miss a second of it. Light spills through the wall to wall windows, not interrupted for a second by the bedroom’s sliding glass doors, ensuring every corner is brightly illuminated. And what’s more, there’s a shared rooftop terrace complete with a summer kitchen and hanging chair - an ideal spot to while away those balmy afternoons. You’re a hop, skip and jump from the farmers’ market where you’ll find the very best local produce and only a five-minute walk to the Sacred Art Museum of Funchal. Should you need a break from the city heat, it’s a ten minute mosey to the marina for cool breezes and the freshest seafood you’ll ever taste.
