Hidden away in a small valley at 700m above sea level, Cerdeira was a village of schist houses at risk of disappearing after agricultural activity was abandoned in the middle of the 20th Century. Almost 300 years old, the village was built by courageous people, farmers who lived off the land and who, even if they left in search of a better life for their families, would always come back and visit their home.

Hello,
Everything is perfect and in particular the reception of an extremely friendly staff. On the other hand, the state of the kitchen leaves something to be desired! It's greasy and I don't see how the staff could clean it better because it's ancient! Pan

Good Inn, clean and pleasant, only reservation: it lacks soul.
It's more of a hotel than a hostel, bedroom suites in long corridors.

I had no wifi. The sheets and the room in general smelled bad, like a hospital. And the bathroom left to be desired because the shower had no support, that is, you showered on the floor and soaked the whole bathroom.
