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!

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful hostel. It feels more like a bed and breakfast than a hostel if you reserve a private room. The room was impeccably clean, very comfortable, and breakfast was quite satisfying! The owners were also so thoughtful and kind, and take amazing care of the property! Even though it was a little rainy, the hiking nearby was really pretty, and it’s easy to hike or drive to explore a few of the schist villages from Lousã. We’d be thrilled to return!!

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 staff was always smiling and very helpful, making our stay truly enjoyable. The pool and spa area were excellent, providing a perfect space to relax. Both restaurants were outstanding—the outdoor one was truly amazing. The breakfasts were good, and the hotel is set in a beautiful, historic building with attention to every detail. Our son was thrilled to receive his own set of toiletries, small slippers, and a teddy bear. We will definitely return to this hotel in the future.
We felt at home.
The place is new, clean and tidy. Managed and operated with great love. The staff is wow. Kind, nice, helpful and advising. The rooms are spacious and clean. The public areas as well. There is a pool, gym and sauna.
The hotel has its own parking.
There are several good restaurants within walking distance. It is important to make a reservation.
Perfect!
An amazing and unique place to stay with breathtaking views, especially for nature passionates, animal lovers. The hosts are very friendly people who prepare the accommodation with all care. The house is located on the way of beautiful trail, joining other villages. 25 minutes by car from Ecological park Serra da Lousã. We will be back!
The accomodation was excellent, very clean and neat space, every detail is well thought out, fully equipped kitchen. It's also well insulated so one can enjoy the peace of that beautiful place. Very conveniently located for nearby trails around Lousã. Truly recommended for a short or longer stay. We will definitely return!
