Description
Beautifully renovated following the earthquakes
in the 30’s, this wonderful 200 year old watermill
offers very comfortable accommodation with lots
of traditional features. The living room still houses
the original millstone and wood oven (both of which
still work!) and the water channel that powered the
stones runs underneath the house and is visible
from inside by clever use of glass panels.
Outside there is a small garden reached through the
kitchen and one of the bedrooms. The house is set
in the pretty coastal village of Faial da Terra on the
south coast with a shingle beach, stunning walks
and a couple of cafés and restaurants on either side
of the river which divides the village.
