The Madeira archipelago sits in the middle of the Atlantic and is made up of the main island, Porto Santo and two other groups of uninhabited islands.
Known as the pearl of the Atlantic, its mild climate makes it a year-round destination for family holidays. The capital, Funchal, offers restaurants and shops in abundance along with museums and historic buildings.
Traditionally popular with ramblers and perhaps an older generation, Madeira is now being discovered by families and is an excellent choice for an exclusive family holiday – look no further than Reid’s Palace for the ultimate in luxurious family accommodation.
