Choose homes and cottages on Faial Island, Azores

One of the Central Group of islands in the Azores, holiday cottages on Faial Island will give you the perfect opportunity to visit the site of the last volcanic eruption to rock the archipelago - the rugged rock formations left by the Capelinhos volcano providing evidence of how this violent seismic event in 1957 completely transformed the landscapes, size and shape of Faial Island. Holiday cottages in the Azores are popular with lovers of the natural world as the breathtaking scenery and incredible varieties of flora and fauna that exist in a wide range of unspoilt habitats are just as likely to attract geologists, botanists and marine biologists as those simply seeking a beautiful setting for their holiday cottage.

Find cottages in Faial Island

Faial Island has such an exquisite coastline and so much rugged countryside to explore - not to mention the challenge of climbing up to the 2km wide caldera at the top of Cabecao Gordo, the highest mountain on Faial Island - cottage rentals in the Azores on any other island would rarely be able to offer the kind of convenience that means you'll never have to go further than your own front door to discover more things to see and do than you can cram into one vacation! Even though holiday cottages on Faial Island were tailor-made for peaceful relaxation, there is plenty of whale-watching, hiking, climbing, cycling, diving or sailing to be done as well as an abundance of history and culture to investigate in Horta, the only city of Faial Island, so you might need to consider a return trip to a holiday cottage in the Azores just so you can do nothing but put your feet up!
