A gem at the heart of the bay
Never, never, never give up… on your dream holiday. Located in the picturesque fishing village of Câmara de Lobos on the Portuguese island of Madeira, this four-star hotel offers the perfect blend of comfort, history, and stunning coastal scenery. This boutique hotel is named after the renowned British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who visited and painted the picturesque bay in the 1950s. This hotel’s prime location offers easy access to the island’s main attractions, such as the capital city of Funchal, just a short drive away, and the amazing Cabo Girão Skywalk – a glass walkway that juts out from some of Europe’s highest cliffs.
On arrival, you’ll notice subtle nods to Churchill, with a statue of him painting the bay just outside the entrance, and several of his inspirational quotes adorning the walls inside. You can enjoy modern, stylish rooms, all designed to maximise your comfort and relaxation. Each room features contemporary décor, free wi-fi, flatscreen TVs, and private balconies that offer incredible views of the bay and the Atlantic Ocean.
The hotel’s first-floor restaurant, Pier One Grill Terrace, serves an impressive menu of Madeiran and international dishes, and the views aren’t bad, either. However, your finest hour at this hotel might come at the rooftop bar and infinity pool, which both provide the perfect spots to unwind with a cocktail while cooling off and soaking in the panoramic views of the bay and surrounding cliffs.
Make time to explore the beauty of Câmara de Lobos, a vibrant village with a rich cultural heritage. You can explore its colourful streets, visit the local market, or enjoy a traditional poncha at one of the many seaside bars – they’re strong but delicious! The area is also known for its outdoor activities, including hiking, fishing, and boat tours. For a stay that combines a touch of historical charm and stunning natural beauty, this hotel is an excellent choice – no wonder Winnie loved it.
