All the staff were very friendly and very helpful. The outdoor pool was a good size. Breakfast was great and the hotel was a good size but not too big .

The location looking over the mountain & the veggie gardens and chickens at the back. A real sense of village life. The famous walk to the castle stared at the end of the lane. A great location for walkers with restaurants close by at the end of the day.
Featuring mountain views, Talasnal Casas da Urze TER provides accommodation with patio, around 40 km from Coimbra Football Stadium.

When we arrived, the host placed us in Casa da Urze 3 as it was just me and my girlfriend and we did not need the extra bed that Casa da Urze 2 had. We were both still very happy with this! The house was incredibly cute and cosy - had a view over the mountains, a lovely fireplace that we lit every night (and which warmed up the house wonderfully and we had a fresh bucket of logs and pine cones to use every evening), we had a TV where we could pair up with my laptop and watch films, the bathroom was pretty and absolutely clean as well, the kitchen had everything we needed, the breakfast that was included was small but filling enough (and we could always ask for an extra bit of bread & etc), the lunch food cooked by the host was delicious, the hosts themselves were very nice and caring and always available, and to finish off, Talasnal is an absolute picturesque gem of a place to come spend a few days in, hiking around through the beautiful natural routes nearby and disconnecting from the busy routine we all feel overwhelmed by from time to time! I will absolutely love to come here again, thank you so much to Casa da Urze and its hosts for this wonderful experience, it was a pleasure!

Lousã is a great place for those who like nature and culture. There are amazing hiking trails with beautiful views. You can either stay in the city, Lousã, with very nice hotels and restaurantes or in one of the Mountain Villages, Aldeias de Xisto. Lousã also offers nice churchs and historical places to visit.

The main reason to stay here is for walking the national forest trails and visit the Shicht villages which are a wonderful experience, Be advised reaching them is via a continuous, twisty mountain road that can be exhausting, So we only visited one--Candal--which we thoroughly enjoyed. There is nothing in Lousa itself so consider this area a relaxing stop for outdoor enjoyment that is a great and welcome contrast to busy Lisbon and Porto.

The old parts of Lousa on the hill all 100 to 200 years old and all just a few minutes from the hotel but there are few actual restaurants mainly cafes. The impressive church Square and the ballet school building are both near the Octant Palacio Hotel

Lousa is centrally located to explore the surrounding areas such as the shale stone village Talasnal, or nearby Gois and Arganil. Nature is at the forefront here and offers ample opportunities for hiking and exploring.

This location of the house is off the busy tourist routes and is very beautiful. The village and surrounding areas are exceptional. There are very few shops locally - which is great but generally anything you need can be bought in Lousa (12 km from the house) so don't forget anything :-).

Lousa in general needs to up its information game.
Lousa in general needs to up its information game. It was hard to find the tourist office in Lousa and when did find it it was closed.
We were able to get more info in Talasnal but not everything we needed. Tried to walk some trails but maps/trail info was incomplete.
The house is beautiful, rooms are spacious and well equipped. There is a kitchenette for use in each floor with a microwave, sink and a fridge. The common areas are clean, modern and there are dedicated spaces to children (indoors and outdoors).
The staff was exceptional, kind and always willing to help.
I particularly enjoyed the piano in the reception where guests are welcome to play.
The house in Lousã is central to visit aldeias do xisto. There are plenty of good restaurants within 3 min walk from the house.
Except for the breakfast, there was nothing exceptional about this hotel. The facilities are so limited. Only a small pool, a sauna and a shock shower... My gym has more spa options.
