Casa Vilae – Happy holidays in the heart of Serra da Estrela

With the arrival of winter, mountain landscapes take on a special charm, and Casa Vilae, located on the historic Taboadella estate in the Serra da Estrela, is the perfect refuge for an unforgettable Christmas. Designed to welcome families or groups of friends, this house combines comfort, tradition and an intimate connection to the world of wine and nature.

On the ground floor, the social areas invite you to socialise in the large living room, which opens onto an outdoor terrace, ideal for contemplating the vineyards that surround the property. On the upper floors, the eight bedrooms offer options for everyone, including a dormitory specially designed for the little ones. The décor reflects the soul of the region, with authentic materials such as burel and traditional porridge blankets, which warm up the cold nights and reinforce the cosy character of the house.

A stay at Casa Vilae is more than a rest, it’s a complete experience. Guests can explore the Wine House, a former agricultural structure transformed into a tasting room and shop, where Taboadella’s wines take centre stage. The experience can be complemented with personalised activities that make the holiday even more memorable: from craft workshops and flower arranging to oenological activities such as wine blending and tastings of regional products. For those looking to relax, there is also the option of yoga and pilates classes, as well as a personalised meal service that can be booked in advance, ensuring that comfort and gastronomy go hand in hand.

Casa Vilae’s large windows offer a privileged view over the vineyards, harmoniously integrating the interior with the exterior and creating a unique atmosphere, perfect for those who wish to escape routine and experience a Christmas surrounded by tranquillity, tradition and good memories. Casa Vilae invites you to celebrate this season with the essence of Serra da Estrela and the best of Portuguese wine tourism.
