Project Portugal-


Casa nas Serras which started out as 'Project Portugal' is a charming Bed and Breakfast located in Vila Nova de Poiares, Central Portugal. In between Porto in the north and Lisbon in the south we are situated 30 minutes east of Coimbra on the foothills of the Serra da Estrela.

After the renovations, this authentic country house has been turned into a small paradise in the Portuguese countryside.

Our blog below shows every step of the way, from tearing down parts of the house, to the reconstruction, the works on the swimming pool, interior designing, gardening and much more.

Please feel free to take a look around on this blog or on our website http://www.casanasserras.com

Questions, comments and requests for availability can be sent to info@casanasserras.com and we´ll get back to you as soon as possible.

We look forward to seeing you here in Portugal!

Fruit Trees/Fruitbomen

After a week of being inside, painting, cleaning up, finishing off  room by room, we spent the yesterday afternoon in the January sunshine planting trees.

In addition to the 14 olive trees, apple tree, pear tree and peach tree that we already have in the garden, we planted several more; we planted 1 olive, 2 peach, 1 apple, 1 pear and 1 cherry tree.

Next step are the citrus trees, but for those we have to wait until the end of February/beginning March.

Na een weekje binnen werken, verven en de bouw stilletjes aan op te ruimen, hebben we gisteren namiddag even tijd genomen om de eerste bomen te planten.

Er stonden al 14 olijfbomen, een appelaar, perelaar, en perzikenboom, en we hebben er enkele bijgeplant, namelijk 1 olifboom, 2 perzikenbomen, 1 appelaar, 1 perelaar en 1 kerselaar.

Volgende bomen die we planten zijn de citrusbomen, maar daarvoor wachten we tot eind februari/begin maart.
