At the foot of the highest mountain range in Continental Portugal, Serra da Estrela, lays the old and beautiful house built on top of one of the hundreds of ... giant stones in the central area of ??Portugal (hence the name of the estate "The Place of the High Stone"). For more than a century, Lugar da Pedra Alta has been meticulously and tastefully built as a place of relaxation and family reunions and has remained to this day the ideal hiding place for intimate moments in the family. Lugar da Pedra Alta offers our guests an unforgettable experience in the middle of the nature, surrounded by native flora such as the wonderful almonds, evergreen olives, pine trees and other conifers and a mesmerising view of the Serra de Estrela mountain range. The eight bedrooms, plus the dining room and living room provided for our visitors will take you back in time to the early twentieth century, in a warm and familiar atmosphere, for an evening in front of the fireplace or on the veranda behind the house admiring the majestic forest, or even - why not? -, in a hammock in the middle of nature! Due to the high speed internet we have in the all house and the several spaces that could be use for co-working we also consider ourselves a fantastic place for companies to make meetings or offer their employees unforgettable moments while team building. Imagine having a productive and creative day of work in one of our balconies with view to the forest or almond groove and for a quick break you go take a dive in the pool or to make your blood flow for creativity just take a step in our sports field for a quick game of football, basketball, tennis or badminton.
