Chapel House:
Imagine the peace, serenity and security experienced by the parishioners of this recovered Portuguese Chapel at the base of the est 1000 year old Castelo Celorico Da Biera. This house is a recently recovered historical building in Portugal. With modern amenities. Oven, microwave, showers, bath (top room), high speed internet while stepping on the porch and seeing the ancient castle walls, beautifully lit at night! The perfect place for your morning coffee or your afternoon Port Wine and cheese. You won't find a more perfect mix of modern conveniences and ancient history at your fingertips! Come enjoy the walk up the ancient granite staircase and into the castle where you can walk the walls like protectors of ancient Portugal! Warning, if you are from the USA, if you find the fastest way from the wall to the ground (falling), you only have yourself to sue... so mind your step! Then walk the ancient cobblestone roads to restaurants, cafes, shopping, and markets. Imagine the lives of the original builders of this city. The Streets. The houses.
Inside the house, marvel at the almost 5 feet thick granite walls. In ancient times thicker walls indicated wealth. The stone is a natural weather barrier and helps keep the inside warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Trust us, if you want to experience a unique stay. If you like history our home will be a memory for years!
If one castle is not enough, rent a car and use it as a home base to explore the interior castles of Portugal! Travel the Aldeas Historicas de Portugal!
There are more than a dozen all in driving distance. If you want to visit Porto for a wine tasting day and walking the coast, it is a 2 hour drive. You will NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! Speaking of wine, there are Wine Tours such as the Douro Vineyards with a short 2-hour countryside drive. Discover why Port Wine is highly sought after around the world! I suggest the Port Tawny, the best sweet red wine in existence. 7 years aged.
ENJOY
