Welcome to Casa das Pedras Grandes (house of large stones)
We could tell you that Casa das pedras grandes is a solid and spacious home with masses of comfortable accommodation, bore you with descriptions of the 4 bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, sitting/dining room, summer lounge etc, or extol the virtues of the completely private courtyard & plunge pool. But impossible to describe - the crisp clear mountain air, the whisper of the wind through the surrounding forests, the early morning scent of pine and eucalyptus, the peace. So, come and discover for yourself!

Summer lounge, family suite (coat lobby, double & twin bedroom,ensuite bathroom) double bedroom & bathroom.

And more:
Stunning scenery, great walks, bike trails, birdwatching, historical monuments - the list is endless. Matas is perfectly placed to access the many wonderful attractions, sports and nature trails with which the Beiras region abounds. Just a short drive will take you through the pine forests to Gois, a typical Portuguese town, offering many facilities, and sports activities. The steep river valleys and wooded hillsides form an ideal terrain for a variety of pastimes, including hill-walking, mountain biking, canoeing and horse riding. the area has an abundance of wildlife, so also has much to offer the artist or photographer. Those of us who may be less energetic can enjoy the river Ceira, which carves its way through the northern half of the region, providing plenty of areas to swim, relax and enjoy the jewel in the crown of central Portugal
