Presentation

The House was built in 1718 and has always been the home of the Gomes Family, who kept it from generation to generation.

In its three centuries of history, the House has lived a long time and, speaking its walls, we could hear the story of a country tell: they witnessed the abolition of slavery, the death penalty, a civil war, the invasion of the French troops who in the cellar of the House shot on the wine barrels to drink what was stored there, the fall of the monarchy, the dictatorship and the revolution. It was a school, parish and family residence. For three hundred years, the House served as a topographical reference for the quiet village of São João de Lourosa and we will never know what all those who leaned over these windows, those who crossed the threshold of these doors, those who sat on the porch saw, felt or thought. We can never know what thoughts assailed them, but the marks of their passage remained. And if the physiognomy of the House is three hundred years old, its oldest record is in the form of a small grave, which was called "Tomb of the Moors" as a way of marking an approximate origin for a construction that exceeds the age of the property.

Located in the beautiful region of Beiras, in the vicinity of the Serra da Estrela, in the Region of Dão-Lafões famous for its magnificent gastronomy, high quality of its Dão wines and the magnificent cheeses of the Serra.

In this magnificent rural house, you will find the familiar comfort, the quiet of the fields, the singing of the swallows and their gliding flights in the pool. Ideal for a few days of rest, or to support a visit to Viseu, being 10 minutes by car from the city center.
