Jardim da Serra Holidays, Madeira | Mountains and Sea
Jardim da Serra, set in the hills of Madeira, is a peaceful, green escape for couples and nature lovers who want scenery, fresh air and mild weather. Madeira's spring-like climate runs all year, which makes it a reliable choice well beyond the usual beach season.
This is a destination for walking, views and slowing down rather than a typical beach break, with the Atlantic coast and the island's famous landscapes within easy reach.
Where to stay in Jardim da Serra

Getting there and when to go
