Description
Located in the centre of the pretty town of Furnas,
Domus Adepta is well situated for exploring this
famous volcanic area.
The owner of this 100 year
old house is Isabel, a direct descendent of Thomas
Hickling who owned and started the planting at
the Terra Nostra botanical garden. Ask to see her
Hickling heirlooms! Isabel speaks several languages
and has been a tour guide (mainly on São Miguel)
for 30 years so she’ll be able to tell you all about
the peaceful lagoon, bubbling mud pools and hot
springs of Furnas, all of which are within walking
distance of the house.
