The Casa das Cerejas, known in the area as the Casa da Portela, is a granite stone construction, dating back to the 17th Century, which is part of 2025 hectares of fenced off land, set on the western coast of the Corno de Bico Mountains. The house is surrounded by mountains and offers some superb scenery, thanks to its ideal location.. Its situation allows the visitor to Casa das Cerejas to have a very peaceful and comfortable stay.

To get to Casa das Cerejas take the A3 (Braga/Valença) as far as the Paredes de Coura/Vila Nova de Cerveira exit..
When you leave the A3 you should follow the signs for Paredes de Coura, which is a distance of approximately 13 km.
Once you get to the village, you will find a petrol station on the left and a Cultural Centre and Doctor’s Surgery on the right; we carry on for another 100 m and take the first road on the right and then first left, then a few metres further on we go into a tunnel;
The tunnel comes out onto a roundabout, where you have to follow the signs for Arcos de Valdevez (EN 303); from here always follow the signs for Arcos de Valdevez.
After the last roundabout in Paredes de Coura, and once you are at the EN 303, you come to Bico, 5.5 km further on.
You will pass a church and a cemetery, past the headquarters of the parish council, and around 100 m opposite, there is a signpost on the right, between these, towards Cascalha and Castanheira. Take this turning..
Around 200 m further on, on the bend, you will find a cobbled path on the right.
Go along this path and then straight on, and on the left you will find the doorway and a sign for the Casa das Cerejas.
Please, come on in. We hope you have a good journey!
Casa das Cerejas is a great place to rest and enjoy nature. The suites are very charming, confortable, colorfull and romantic.. All the house is impecably clean and the breakfast is a temptation for all the senses.
We were kindly recieved here. The place is rather new, has both rooms and suits.. Very clean, very helpful hostess (who seems to have a horror of getting flies or mosquitos in the house).
The place is out of the way, high, pleasant yet easily reachable if you are in northern part of Portugal. No air conditioning as it is not needed so high up. A small swimming pool. Showers in rooms and a really fantastic breakfast!
Maravillosa estancia,

¿Recordáis el anuncio de los electrodomésticos Balay, aquel en el que un señor vestido con un mono con el logotipo de la marca tenía por misión hacer la vida más agradable a una señora de la manera más discreta posible? Pues esa es la sensación que tuvimos los cuatro días que estuvimos alñojados en la casa. NUNCA hemos desayunado tan bien. Está toda la casa impecable de limpia. El entorno es precioso. La tranquilidad, absoluta. Es, sin duda, el mejor alojamiento rural en el que hemos estado. No

Podemos adiantar que superou largamente as nossas espectativas. A simpatia e disponibilidade da Filipa é um factor que não podemos deixar de evidenciar. Desde a envolvencia calma do espaço, os espectaculares pequenos almoços, a privacidade; Enfim, só nos resta desejar que mantenham este nivel, pois ficámos com vontade de voltar e certamente recomendaremos a quem quiser passar uns dias em familia, com puro descanso.
A não perder!,

Na Casa das Cerejas sentimo-nos em casa! A beleza da casa, os magnificos e variados pequenos almoços (com doces caseiros e muitos mimos preparados pela Filipa), a tranquilidade e a paisagem envolvente que ainda não explorámos fazem-nos pensar em voltar! Recomendamos!
