About this property

Located at one of the village's highest points, the Casa da Escada is a welcoming two-floor house with a stunning view of the Cerdeira’s Brook Valley and the village itself.

On the ground floor*, you will find a kitchen, a dining table, and a living area with a comfortable sofa bed. The bathroom is on the first floor, which also features a double and a single bed.
*the height of the ground floor is 1.90m.

The terrace in front of the house is ideal for playing or reading and enjoying meals and a glass of wine at the end of the day. This house is also perfect for those who cannot imagine a true holiday without the company of their pets.

Like all the other houses in Cerdeira, the Casa da Escada has been restored using ecological and regional materials and favoring the use of local contractors. All houses have central heating and offer great comfort, both in winter and summer. In the kitchen, you will find basic staples such as salt, sugar, spices, olive oil, and vinegar. To guarantee that you make the most out of the village’s quietness, we have chosen not to install TVs in any of the houses. Wifi is available.

You can make your stay even more special by planning a creative experience, or by joining one of the workshops and courses that we host at our Arts and Crafts School throughout the year.

CERDEIRA - HOME FOR CREATIVITY
THE REBIRTH OF A VILLAGE

Hidden away in a small valley at 700m above sea level, Cerdeira was a village of schist houses at risk of disappearing after agricultural activity was abandoned in the middle of the 20th Century. Almost 300 years old, the village was built by courageous people, farmers who lived off the land and who, even if they left in search of a better life for their families, would always come back and visit their home.

Today, Cerdeira has new stories to tell, of new inhabitants who have, will their persistence and willpower, breathed life and purpose back into this place, of men and women who have knowledgeably restored the houses and made them comfortable, as a 21st-century house should be, of guests who choose the village to spend their holidays, and of artists from all over the world who come in search of inspiration. Cerdeira is now one of 27 villages that make up the network of Aldeias do Xisto.

In 2000, two families that had been friends for years decided to unite in the recovery of some houses of the village. Gradually, the Cerdeira Village project started to gain form and meaning. In 2006, the Arts festival "Elementos à Solta" was held, idealized by one of the project co-founders. In 2012, the Cerdeira Village project started, which in 2018 became Cerdeira - Home for Creativity.
