The Guilherme River Botanical Garden, affectionately known as Quinta do Moínho Garden, is a delightful escape nestled alongside the gently flowing Ribeira do Guilherme. Located at EN1-1A 2, 9630 Lomba da Fazenda, this charming park invites visitors to take a leisurely stroll amidst its vibrant flower beds and serene natural surroundings.
Despite its modest size, the garden offers an enchanting atmosphere that captivates anyone seeking a moment of tranquillity. A picturesque waterfall cascades into a small lake, where ducks glide gracefully, adding to the peaceful ambiance. For those wishing to linger a little longer, the garden features a cozy seating area, perfect for relaxing and soaking in the beauty of nature.
At the end of the garden, two historic water mills can be found, one of which has been thoughtfully adapted for local accommodation, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the charm of the area. Additionally, a quaint straw hut is available for picnics, making it a perfect spot for families or couples to enjoy a meal surrounded by the soothing sounds of water and nature.
While some may find that the garden is best enjoyed as part of a broader exploration of the island, those nearby will appreciate the calming experience it provides, especially when seeking a peaceful retreat in a beautiful setting.
