We loved our stay at magical Cedeira. We took advantage of the walking trails. Wi-fi is Understandably spotty. The bed was very comfortable. The views are breathtaking. The art in the house was fun and eclectic. We hope to come again and stay longer!

Um lugar

Lugar aparte. Lugar. Não é apenas uma localização, uma vez que aqui nos sentimos num outro mundo, isolados mas protegidos na talvez aldeia de xisto mais especial que visitei. Lugar para descansar a mente e recarregar baterias. Tudo o resto é secundário.

Unforgettable stay. Best stay in our trip

Best experience ever. The village is beautiful and every house was very clean and comfortable. It located a little off road but it worth the drive. We won't forget our stay. I hope someday we go back there.

Um local ímpar, com toda a qualidade. Tranquilidade numa altitude bastante razoável. Lamento apenas o valor da caução, que não é restituída de imediato.

Most tranquil location I have ever stayed.

This has to be one of the most tranquil locations I have ever stayed. The only sounds are those of nature and the mountain stream. And the views are breathtaking. Very relaxing. The staff are very welcoming and each lodge has a most informative multi lingual brochure featuring nature walks and local restaurants for those who dont wish to make use of the well appointed facilities. I will most definitely be recommending Cerdeira to friends, family, and colleagues for a fabulous get-away-from-it-all break.
