Above the rocks looking out to the sea of Calheta, 30 minutes from the city of Funchal, is Casa do Calhau Grande, an ideal location for those who appreciate the calmness, the agricultural surroundings and nature.
Its name, Casa do Calhau Grande (House of the Great Pebble), originates from the great rocks of basaltic origin, calhaus, which you find there, some 5 meters high, a place that locals are still finding older rocks.
It is composed by four indenpendent houses:
Palheiro, Tenda, Sapateiro and Calhau.

The surrounding area
The private space belonging to the garden is ample enough to allow one to make the best of broken contact with nature, especially allowing you to enjoy the pure air, the agricultural sounds and sun.
Plants and the existing flowers are those that the climate favours and those that are better adapted to the place, such as: banana trees, palms, yam, cardinal, cacti, jasmine, daisies, etc. A permanent running well exists with fish and frogs.
In the garden exist some water springs that can be found throughout the year, even so with bigger abundance in the Winter. Part of this water is accumulated and used in the irrigation of the plants of the garden, the trees and vegetable garden.
