Os Ferreirinhos is the main house of the Kiwi House property, which also includes the house O Lagar do Avô and the studio O Miminho, each used independently.
The property is in a rural environment of traditional farming, with a wide view of the farmland and mountains. It has been in the family for three generations, as a family home and meeting place for grandparents, children and grandchildren, especially at Christmas.
The house Os Ferreirinhos was built in the 1930s and more recently expanded and adapted for tourist accommodation, retaining several authentic elements of mid-twentieth-century rural houses — furniture, windows, doors, floors and ceilings.
The house has around 200 m² and comprises four bedrooms on the upper floor, each with a double bed (140 × 190 cm) and a private bathroom, plus a bedroom on the ground floor with a small double bed (130 × 180 cm), a bathroom, an office, a living room and a spacious kitchen. It has a terrace with distant sea views, from where the island of Porto Santo can sometimes be seen, and free parking on the property.
It also includes air conditioning in the living room and two bedrooms, a washing machine, a dishwasher, a refrigerator, a ceramic hob, an oven, a microwave and kitchen utensils, as well as bed linen, towels, a heater, Wi-Fi, a TV with international channels and other amenities for a pleasant and relaxing stay.
