Located in Cedros,
a rural 'faialense' town about 17 km from Horta (the main city on the island),
the Casa do Capitão is an peaceful oasis surrounded by small houses built of volcanic stone,
cultivated fields, pastures and back yards lined with fruit trees. The house has a traditional architecture with a
stone-inlay façade, and a small landscaped 'patio' at the centre, ideal for a breakfast or a late afternoon tea.
There are several paths
that meander from the house and invite you to a walk on the countryside or alongside the coast with breathtaking views of
São Jorge and Graciosa islands.
