Solar da Bica is a natural haven for guests keen to explore this most beautiful and rugged of islands. A rural lodge built around a traditional Madeiran house, it's been adapted to serve as an attractive base for walkers and nature lovers who are drawn to the 'Garden Island'.
Independent guests planning to spend their Madeiran break touring and perhaps walking the renowned levadas will appreciate the Solar da Bica's location in the heart of a laurel forest: Vale de Sao Vicente; an area given to limestone extraction in the past that's now thrown up countless examples of marine fossils dating back five million years.
The Grutas de Sao Vicente - the Caves of Sao Vicente - and the Forno da Cal, the limekiln, are just two of many sights local to this area of breathtaking natural beauty.
Madeira's modern road network means the lively capital, Funchal, is about thirty minutes drive away. Funchal has a rich scattering of excellent restaurants serving both international and local fare. Lofty jacaranda trees line the lanes of Funchal, arranged between stylish colonial buildings and majestic mansions in a city where the island's main historic sites and finest restaurants are found. A natural harbour, the marina is sprinkled with seafood restaurants and is an enchanting area for an evening stroll where you can wind your way up to the bougainvillea blanketed river.
