Description
This peaceful complex is set around the original
farmhouse where Emanuela (the owner) and her
family live. It was her inspiration to convert the
extensive gardens into a rural retreat for guests and
was one of the first examples of rural tourism on the
island.
The extensive (2 hectares) gardens include fruit orchards, a large lawn, woods and an outdoor swimming pool (open May-October). Evening meals can be provided on request.
Conveniently located, the Quinta is just 15km from
Ponta Delgada and 8km from the Batalha golf course.
Other facilities include a breakfast room, lounge,
honesty bar in reception, games room and small
children’s play area.
