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!

Segunda-feira

Can’t believe that Monday has passed again, and that tomorrow is the 1st of February! We’ve been back from Belgium for a little over 3 weeks now, and you must be wondering what we’ve been up to all this time. Well, let me see, the first two weeks we were back we dealt with all the little jobs left for the workmen to do. Little bit of painting, little bit of grouting, little bit of plumbing, and lots of cleaning up; but that is all behind us now.

With the workmen out of the house for about a week now we have taken the time to get offers made for a kitchen for the 1st floor and we’ve informed about placing a pool. We’ve also been to the do-it-yourself store about, mm…let’s see, 4 times in a weeks time, to pick up all sorts of things to finish the jobs here, but mainly to pick up PAINT!  With 3 rooms almost completely finished (just the bathroom ceiling and doors), we’ve only got 2 more rooms to paint, and we can’t wait to be able to say we’ve finished.

And last but definitely not least, we’ve been driving from here to there to find appropriate furniture so that we can finally start furnishing our guest rooms. So far, not much luck yet, but we’re not giving up!

We’ll keep you posted on any developments, and pictures will come soon!

ps.: please don’t forget that if you have any questions or comments you can always leave us a message below!

  1. Hey daar!

    Tot nu toe hebben we geen dringende vragen. We zijn alleen onder de indruk van het schitterende resultaat aan de buitenkant en wachten vol spanning af op de afgewerkte binnenkant! :-)

    Veel succes op meubeljacht!
