Fantastic place to visit! The different houses that make Casas da Ribeira are all wonderfully warm and well equipped, the staff is amazing (ana is 5 stars) and they allow pets :) a great choice if you want to find a great place to bring family and/or friends to visit serra da estrela
This cottage is part of several casas. We saw only two of them, about 600 m from the main buildings and in a very quiet spot. The owner, Ana, is lovely and very helpful. The larger cottage was very good value. Each morning we received fresh bread and breakfast supplies. We were allowed the use of the small swimming pool of the neighbouring guesthouse. The cottage is well located for those looking for a very quiet holiday in the mountains of the Serra da Estrela near the small town of Seia. There are many walking trails, most require a car to get to the starting point.
An amazing setting, near the highest part of Portugal - Torre with fresh bread every morning and lovely local foods. Surrounded by forest and gorgeous landscape. It is near many local river beaches, restaurants with traditional foods and locally resourced. Near Seia and the museu do Pão, and short drive away from Gouveia, Linhares, Folgosinho and the gorgeous river beach of Loriga. It is a great place to stay with family, children, pets or friends. Competly suitable to all ages and with all the facilities to cook meals and to enjoy the silence of the country side.
We loved our stay in Casas da Ribeira located in the lovely mountainside village of Povoa Velha ... Just 5kms from Seia. It just doesn't get more authentic as this! We loved the solitude & change of pace on our 10 day road trip. It was a chance to unwind, wander & ponder in the country fresh air. Great variety of trails short, long, easy or challenging... Well colour coded so you don't get lost. Accommodation was lovely, clean, cool, snug & comfortable. Plenty of room to spread out & enjoy your own kitchenette. Good basic European brekkie provided. The owner was keen to make sure we were well looked after & comfy. Lovely little nooks inside & outside to soak up morning sun or to cool off from the afternoon heat. We loved it so much we booked an extra night ... Definitely be back for some more relaxation & exploring the Serra da Estrela. …
Very nice houses, in a beautiful little village, nice trekking paths around, very near Seia. A great place to stay and explore Serra da Estrela. The manager is a wonderful person, with some good stories and very good tips for exploring the surroundings. Highly recommended!
