THIS IN IN PORTUGAL, My name is Rosa, and I’m originally from Figueiró dos Vinhos — the town where our home is located. Together with my sister Fernanda, I share the joy of welcoming those who come in search of natural beauty, peace, and the genuine flavors of our region. Casa Travessa da Arieira is more than just a guesthouse — it’s a heartfelt project, born from love for the place we call home. We welcome every guest with warmth, simplicity, and care, as if we were receiving old friends. Our hosting journey began just a couple of years ago, and with each stay, we take one more step toward improving and beautifying our little corner of the world. The kind reviews on our Google profile, Guesthouse Travessa da Arieira, fill us with gratitude and inspire us to keep growing. We’d be honored to welcome you. Your stay truly makes a difference to us.
THIS IS IN PORTUGAL– Explore Nature and Culture Just 5.5 km from our house, hiking lovers can enjoy a stunning 2 km walkway connecting the Schist Village of Casal de São Simão to the viewpoint of Fragas de São Simão — a scenic trail with breathtaking views. For swimming, relaxing, and soaking up the sun, the river beach of Fragas de São Simão is a must-visit. Nestled along the calm Alge stream, this lifeguarded beach during summer season offers a support bar, picnic area with barbecues, changing rooms, and toilets. Surrounded by a fresh, shaded forest, the atmosphere is almost magical. In the village of Figueiró dos Vinhos, you can immerse yourself in local culture with visits to the Malhoa Museum and the Arts Center, both celebrating the region’s artistic heritage. Gastronomy is another highlight! Enjoy authentic flavors in cozy restaurants, and don’t miss the Santa Luzia Confectionery, famous for its convent sweets made from original 14th-century recipes — a true taste of history. We also recommend some of our favorite local restaurants (you’ll find a full list in your room): • O Terreiro do Lagar (Ansião) – Elegant setting and top-rated on TripAdvisor for traditional Portuguese cuisine. • Restaurante Pérola – O Gandim – Simple, tasty regional food in the next village. • Pizzeria Restaurant – Jamaica – Simple and tasty regional cuisine in the nearby village. • Restaurante 5 Sentidos – Homemade comfort food with a local touch. • Varanda do Casal – Gourmet Portuguese dishes with views at the Fragas de São Simão. • Retiro Figueiras – Traditional food on the EN350, just outside Figueiró dos Vinhos. • Esplanada da Ribeira – Known for locally caught trout, grilled or fried, on the N237 road. • Restaurante Picanha – Known for great grilled steaks and vegetarian, Maçãs D.
