Casa do Talasnal is a perfect place for a holiday with family or friends.
Located in the beautiful shale village of Talasnal, the house offers a unique and genuine experience of a typical schist house, in a comfortable, warm yet rustic atmosphere. The breathtaking views of the mountain, the village and the magnificent swimming pool allow you to enjoy peaceful days where you can hear the birds chirping and the waters of the small stream.
The Talasnal village, all built in schist stone, still preserves the memories of the past, being a magical and genuine place for those who value authenticity.
Secluded on the mountain, the village becomes a perfect place for those seeking tranquility and involvement with nature. Privileged place for mountaineers and hikers or for those who simply want to rest away from the hustle and bustle of cities. The fauna on the mountain is very diverse and rich, and encounters with Deer, Wild Boars, Urchins and other indigenous animals are frequent.
The restoration of the house was completed in 2011 with full respect for the past, using the typical materials of the region, shale and brown wood combined with glass and iron. of today.
The house develops on 3 floors, all with access from the outside, has 3 suites each with toilet giving complete privacy to guests. The ground floor consists of kitchen and dining room with fireplace, on the first floor there is a large living room with open fireplace and a suite. Up to the second floor we have two further suites, one with fireplace. heat and the other in mezzanine and with access to a small balcony. In the decoration were used and recovered some furniture in the house and brought from England and Scotland elements such as fabrics, sofas, chairs.
Outside we have a swimming pool and a large wooden deck where you can enjoy the beautiful landscape around us and the strong, warm sunshine that warms us in summer. There is a beautiful and carefully tended garden with herbs and a dining area with barbecue and a large table sheltered from the sun by a century-old vine.
In the village there is a rustic restaurant where you can taste the delicacies of the region, cafes serving typical cakes and light foods. Nearby we can explore various shale villages, natural pools, and even the place where formerly made the ice that followed in summer for the court in Lisbon. The nearest village Lousã is at 11 km where there are supermarkets, restaurants and general commerce and Coimbra university city is only 40 km. Lisbon is at 2h / 200km and Porto at 1h45 / 165km.

Great family trip
Loved every second and minute of our time here. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets on the side of the mountain. Beautiful walks and hikes for all skill sets. Family like village atmosphere, a true glimpse of classic Portugal in its original ruins. Bring a fan in the summer haha

Great mountain escape
Spacious yet cozy with a cabin feel inside. Great location with beautiful hiking trails (caution: very challenging even though labeled moderate). Great for older kids but staircases lack railings so would be unsafe for younger kids. Beautiful house with lovely garden and pool. Good communication with host.

Great location for a hiking adventure
The house is a beautifully redone schist structure in the center of Talasnal. All the comforts of home; nicely stocked kitchen, great fireplace (heated the whole house), comfortable beds, and nice hot showers. Great hikes just walking out the front door…although we did get lost the first day. Haha. Both Joao and Alda were super responsive and so helpful. Even offering to pick us up in Candal after our very long misplaced hike.
Definitely purchase any supplies before arriving as the tiny Mercado in Talasnal has only the very basics of milk and eggs. Oh and chocolate and wine. Being in the off season only a couple of restaurants are open.
We had such an awesome stay, would like to have stayed longer.
Yes, there are stairs in the house. As advertised it is three levels. Kitchen is downstairs, living room and one bedroom on the main level, and two bedrooms upstairs. A great space and lovely stay!

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Nature
From the moment we arrived at Casa do Talasnal, we were captivated by its charm and serenity. Nestled in the lush, green mountains of the Lousã region, this quaint house offers a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The traditional stone architecture blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings, providing a rustic yet comfortable setting.
The interior of the house is a delightful surprise, mixing modern amenities with traditional decor that pays homage to its cultural heritage. The kitchen is well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals with local ingredients found in nearby markets. The bedroom is cozy, offering breathtaking views of the mountainous landscape that are especially magical at sunrise.
One of the standout features of Casa do Talasnal is its proximity to several hiking trails. These paths lead you through scenic landscapes and to historic schist villages, making it a paradise for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. After a day of exploring, there's nothing better than returning to the comfort of the house to relax by the fireplace.
The hospitality provided by the hosts is top-notch; they are attentive and provide excellent recommendations for both dining and activities in the area. Their passion for the region truly enhances the overall experience.
In conclusion, Casa do Talasnal is not just a place to stay; it's an experience that enriches your soul. It's ideal for those looking to immerse themselves in nature and Portuguese cultu

My best VRBO experience!
The house was well furnished/equipped with quality everything. No shortage of hot water. Beds and bedding were more than comfortable. We were not disappointed with anything (and my husband can usually find something wrong with anything and everything).
All of my prior VRBRO experience has been that the pictures and the list of amenities are overstated AND over rated. Not in this case.
Joao gave us great recommendations for dinner and helped us make the reservations, which was especially appreciated since we do not speak Portuguese.
We would rent again from Joao again in a heartbeat!
Tips for future visitors: If you will be there for more than 2 days/nights and/or you want to cook any of your own meals, stop at a grocery store in Lousa before heading up the road to Talasnal because the road is extremely windy and narrow and you will not want to go back down the mountain just to go to the grocery store unless you really have to.
The road is very narrow and does not comfortably fit 2 cars. In addition, there really is no shoulder on either side of the road - so the drive up can be nerve rattling. However, this should not be a deterrent.

The most unique property (and location) we’ve ever stayed in. Access to hiking trails immediately outside our gate was something we didn’t expect and allowed us to explore without having to get back into a car to find a trailhead. Alda was extremely helpful in all respects. The wild boars wandering below the village were a fascinating find.

The property was amazing located in a historic village 17th century Schist village. Our host met us there and gave us a tour of the beautiful home which he had renovated. He was very responsive to any questions during our stay. The house is three levels and the village has lots of steps so good mobility is needed.

Unsuitable for seniors
Interesting location. Property ok for campers, but for seniors presents too many challenges: many steps from parking lot to house and within home requiring one to heft ones luggage. One double room has uncomfortable bed, the other too small for two people and luggage. Entry to pool difficult with only one deep step. No rail on stairs, that were open on one side
Found it too difficult so left after one day of planned four day visit - making this an expensive stay

Magical
Don't let the winding road up to Tasnal worry you. Once you arrive you find yourself in this small enchanting village with views for days! We enjoyed just basking in the sun at the pool each day. The small restaurant in the village was perfect for a light lunch and the house is well stocked with all you might need to cook at home! Had a fantastic stay!

A aldeia do Talasnal é um local especial que é obrigatório conhecer.
O alojamento que seleccionamos é uma simbiose perfeita entre conforto, funcionalidade e apurado sentido estético.
Para tornar o quadro ainda mais idílico o enquadramento paisagistico é perfeito, potenciando o descanso e obrigando-nos a abrandar e a dedicar tempo a saborear a vida.
Adoramos o espaço, ideal para familias conjugando o usufruto das áreas interiores com espaços exteriores apelativos e muito prazerosos. Excelente apoio e absoluta disponibilidade por parte do proprietário em validar se tudo estava a correr bem ou se era necessário algo sempre com uma extrema simpatia e profissionalismo. Ficamos fãs e certamente ue iremos regressar!!!!! Muito obrigado por tudo caro João Pedro.

Fantastic home, in a fantastic area !
It’s been a pleasure to stay a few days in Joao’s casa ! The house has a unique point of view on the mountains, offering breathtaking sunsets. The house itself is very well designed and very well equipped. We feel at home. The communication with Joao has been very easy from the beginning. Maybe one thing to know is that you need to come with your groceries as there is no food shop around. Thank you very much Joao for everything ! We had a wonderful time in your home.

Excelente opção
A nossa experiência não podia ter sido melhor, sentir a natureza viva dentro e fora de casa. A casa é extremamente confortável, com tudo o que é preciso para umas férias plenas de conforto e aventura. A gentileza do proprietário e das pessoas que vivem aquela aldeia diariamente fizeram toda a diferença e tornaram esta experiência ainda mais enriquecedora. Desde os adultos à criança, todos ficaram felizes com a experiência e com vontade de voltar. Já há algum tempo que tínhamos curiosidade de ficar numa aldeia de xisto, o talasnal foi a nossa opção para esta viagem e a casa escolhida foi uma excelente opção. Estamos muito gratos por toda a experiência.

Checking in ran smoothly, João responded very quickly to all my questions. The Village of Talasnal and the house were utterly amazing. The beds were very comfortable, lots of towels, very well equipped kitchen, and a great place to grill. From the deck there was a fabulous view. It was so quiet!!!

Fantastic lodging for active touring in Portugal!
Just got back from 2 weeks at Casa do Talasnal, and we were absolutely thrilled and thoroughly enjoyed the location, the house, the pool, and João’s kind hospitality. We were 2 couples on our first trip to Portugal, and João and Elsa received us with genuine affection. This place is beautiful and so well appointed, nothing was amiss. Talasnal is a beautiful village in the hills above Lousã, and there is much to be discovered there but if you’re willing to do some driving as we were, the whole of central and northern Portugal is within reach for day trips. We mixed touring with local activities, we can also recommend the local restaurants and bars. João was also available to cater to us as needed, we highly recommend Casa do Talasnal and doing business with João, great setup and service, Thank You!

Magical Refuge in the Hills
Our family of four’s week-long stay in this beautifully restored shist house was perfect.
João is a gracious, responsive and informative host, and his place, which sits perched on a hill within an ancient stone village, is a gem of contemporary/rustic interiors and thoughtful details.
Great hiking throughout these hills with well marked trails and lots of interesting sights and stopovers along the way. Importantly, this valley was untouched by the ravaging fires of adjoining areas.
Food shopping convenient 20 minutes down the hill in Lousã. One note: don’t expect broadband as internet has to squeak through a cellular modem in this remote hideaway...spend time together instead of surfing!
