It is up a steep hill so may not suit everyone with any mobility issues.

Old Manor House with lots of character. Lovely breakfast and a comfortable room. Found a lovely restaurant from a recommendation.

Beautiful old house, filled with family heirloom and antiques. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Breakfast is tasty. The pool is lovely and refreshing. The only drawback was the lack of a fan in the rooms to ease the heat.

Hot room, no airco or fan.

Location, pool, breakfast.

We were very sad to leave, we could have stayed forever.

Everything, the property is beautiful, full of beautiful furniture & decor. Fresh flowers from the gardens are all over, including our room & en-suite. We were in room 1 which was very spacious & comfortable with the biggest bed I’ve ever seen. Good shower with plenty of hot water. The host was welcoming & extremely helpful. Complimentary hot & cold drinks along with cake & biscuits were provided for guests which is a lovely touch & much appreciated. The pool & gardens were just perfect for relaxing. The breakfast spread was impressive, & delicious.

Nothing.

Accomodation is awesome. It is like a museum with a garden and swimming pool. Host is super kind. Breakfast with home made pastry. It doesn't get any better.

This was like staying in a museum - a beautiful 17th century manor house, with lovely, private garden and swimming pool across the road. Big comfortable beds and superb breakfast. Good value for money.

Casa das Obras is an extraordinary property. An old mansion, dating back to the 16th century, but with all the modern comforts. Multiple relaxation rooms, excellently decorated. The breakfast room is a gem. We really liked our room, as well as the garden with the pool and the entire property. The host, Dona Amelia, was also very kind, who gave us a tour of the property and left cakes, tea and coffee for tourists all day. The bed was very comfortable, quiet, central location in the small town of Manteigas and free parking in front of the property. The town is a good starting point for going to the Serra da Estrela mountains and the alpine valleys.

Because the property is so old the windows are small so there’s very little light which might be an advantage in hot weather but is a bit gloomy.

The host was very welcoming and it was nice to be offered refreshments on our arrival on a hot day. The pool is in a very sweet setting across the road with shade under the vines. The hotel has an amazing history and is full of antique furniture and paintings. It’s quite amazing. Very good breakfast. Easy location for walking around the town.

A step back in time but with electricity, hot water and a lovely swimming pool. Location wise, the Serra da Estrela Nature Park has so far been my favourite spot in Portugal.

Better coffee/espresso.

The place is a large, old, baron's manor with nooks and crannies everywhere. The manor is spacious and so was our room (1). Our room was comfortable with the largest bed I've ever slept in. It was peaceful. There is parking out front. The breakfasts were good and plentiful, though nothing special.

Nothing. It was perfect!

The house is gorgeous. The home itself and the furnishings are museum worthy. It's warm and inviting and the breakfast was delicious. It was undoubtedly the best accommodations during our 2 1/2 week trip to Portugal!

Wifi did not work well in the rooms.

Amazing historical place. The owners put a lot of love and detail into the renovations and decorations of this place from the 17th century. It also offers a Billard and an living room with a fireplace to mingle with other visitors. Breakfast was very good and plenty. We had a great time there. Can only recommend it.

A fabulous place to stay- a really historic and beautiful home with a generous and welcoming host. We felt like royalty and the historic surroundings were amazing.The weather was unseasonably chilly and wood burners and radiators were generously provided. Excellent breakfast buffet.

All was good

It was so authentic and historic

The bed and pillows are too hard. The bed is antique, which is charming, but we thought it might break when got into it, as it creaked so much. Also, religious picture of Jesus above the bed is out of date and depressing looking.

Excellent historic structure and kind hostess in a great location. A truly unique gem. Nice breakfast.

Location was good, we were able to park right outside. Very cool 500 year old manor house. Loved the inside. Sitting rooms with fireplaces. Great breakfast.

The host was very friendly and welcoming. Excellent breakfast. The accommodation was very impressive inside and looked like a medieval castle. It was a cold day and the heaters were on all time what was great. A nice view around, the road leading to the accommodation is quite steep, but fully manageable. A really enjoyed my stay there. The room included a tea pot and cookies what was very nice.

The village might be not too busy outside the season.

Very historic flair, no need to visit a castle or museum, this was living history to us. Very kind owner. Good breakfast. Car parked in front of the door. Room was spacious and well equipped. Very silent due to very thick walls.
