It started out as one of the Amorim family's best kept secrets: Taboadella is now the first wine producing estate in the Dão region to receive the prestigious Relais & Châteaux insignia that has integrated Casa Villae into the exclusive Villas collection.
Located in Silvã de Cima and close to Viseu, the 720 m2 Casa Villae is a mountain house with eight rooms overlooking the foothills of Serra da Estrela, originally built in medieval times. This charming villa can now be reserved exclusively for a minimum of two nights, for those who want to enjoy unique moments with family and friends in a private and extremely comfortable environment.
At Casa Villae, everything has been thought through to the last detail: as well as the breakfast service, included in the stay, there is a welcome basket with a variety of groceries to make you feel at home and which invites you to try self cooking in a kitchen with luxury details and a large counter that promotes conversations and dishes around wine. For those who like to be surprised, it is also possible to hire a meal service or schedule a dinner with a chef.
Decorated by several local artists and craftsmen who have created exclusive pieces with emphasis on natural wool and the papa blanket, creating a warm and sophisticated atmosphere, the welcoming and sophisticated atmosphere at Casa Villae extends to the outdoor terrace, the ideal place to relax and enjoy the surrounding landscape while watching the contemporarily-designed winery. Designed in wood and cork by architect Carlos Castanheira, and with an extensive balcony off tasting room, this beautiful building creates a harmonious relationship with the vineyard and a pleasant sense of well-being.
Hiking trails, pilates or yoga classes, paddle on the River Dão, diving in the Rio Côvo workshops promoted by local artisans, regional product tastings and creating your own wine are some of the experiences available that will make your stay at the most charming house in the region an immersive experience where you leave with the desire to return.
