Set high up on the hillside above Funchal in the Quinta do Palheiro Ferreiro estate, owned by the prominent Blandy family, the house offers luxury accommodation particularly for those interested in golf, gardening and wildlife.
The famous Palheiro Gardens border the house and are home to a wealth of exotic flora and fauna, which fascinates gardening enthusiasts and botanists alike. The Palheiro championship golf course borders the other side of the house, which has been cleverly designed with undulating fairways winding through acres of beautiful forest and enjoys spectacular views across the bay of Funchal. Guests have direct access onto the 7th Tee and receive special reductions on green fees.
The hotel consists of three separate buildings and there is an elegant restaurant and lounge bar overlooking the gardens. Casa Velha now has a superb Spa which compliments the existing atttactions. It has been designed as an extension of the natural surroundings with local materials and native planting used wherever possible. The carefully selected environmentally friendly products from Pevonia Botanica and the highly qualified staff will ensure that Casa Velha will prove very appealing to visitors from around the world.
For those looking for peace and tranquillity in serene surroundings just 8km from the busy centre of Funchal, then Casa Velha is highly recommended.
