Nice place but a bit isolated
It is a nice place but given how remote it is, it would be good to have a restaurant or at least a bar with some snacks.

Sweet find
Oh my what a sweet find! An old manor house transformed into a lovely, quiet, and well maintained boutique hotel! M checked us in and settled us in with information and sweet destinations! A lite supper was prepared for us and breakfast was wonderful - this team work hard to make you feel welcome and special! We traveled to Torre and back for a great day trip! Perfect place away from crowds!

Wonderful, comfortable, cool place to stay.
We chose Cerca Design House because we were looking for a pleasant and interesting place between Lisbon and Madrid. The geographical setting is gorgeous, just on the flank of a mountain range. Although its in one of Portugal's characteristic tiny, ancient villages, they've created a beautiful, spacious and very well designed space to stay in. The service was also extremely good and responsive. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

Beautifully restored manor house. Rooms were a spacious and comfortable. Hotel staff were excellent. They also recommend a restaurant that was one of the highlights of our trip. Breakfast was customized and a personal experience. I would highly recommend Cerca Design House.

Comfortable one night stay
We stayed here for one night of our honeymoon with our 8 month old baby on our way sdown south of Portugal. After eventually finding it we were delighted to find a very clean and well presented property. The room was apparently once an old little chapel, beautifully renovated with a contemporary feel and they had put the rose petals out for us too. A cot was provide with cute bedding and the staff were able to to provide a bottle warmer for us. The staff were very helpful in recommending a place to eat. Breakfast was great, a lot to choose from and we both left feeling full and satisfied. There were 2 pools, very clean but we didn't get a chance to use them. A great place to stay that's not expensive.

Modernidade e conforto na zona rural do Fundão.
Passamos alguns dias em uma das vilas e gostamos muito, a cama e o sofá cama eram muito confortáveis, havia muito espaço nos armários do quarto, boa ducha e como levamos nossa cadela, tinha caminha e potes para comida disponíveis. Especial elogio para a Sandra, super atenciosa e prestativa. O café da manhã, que chegava em cestos, era bastante farto. Destaco os pães, o sumo de laranja feito na hora e os deliciosos queijo curado da região e doces caseiros. Como crítica, pensamos que faltam lugares para pendurar os casacos na sala e um pouco mais de utensílios de cozinha. Na casa de banho também seria bom ter prateleiras ou um apoio maior. Como ficamos na vila adaptada para pessoas com mobilidade reduzida (não era nosso caso) e somos uma família de pessoas altas, a pia e a sanita acabam por ser muito baixos. Mas nada que tenha comprometido a nossa estadia. Aproveitamos bem a jacuzzi interior e não fizemos uso da sala de estar nem do bar mas são espaços aconchegantes e muito bem decorados. Não há opções de restauração próximas mas o Fundão fica a menos de 10 minutos de carro. Também há delivery de pizza e de algumas outras opções. A região tem muitos trilhos, aldeias históricas, praias fluviais no verão e a Serra da Estrela no inverno.

Recuperação exemplar de uma casa antiga. Quartos modernos e limpos. Colaboradores atentos e prestáveis. Contras : O espaço exterior na zona da piscina merecia relva natural (seria mais condizente com o conceito do hotel que relva artificial )para além de refrescar a área envolvente à piscina ;

Au calme.
L'hôtel est très propre très beau et vraiment confortable. Par contre pour manger c'est un peu compliqué, on commande et le repas est livré puis réchauffé. Les pizzas sont très grande et bonne mais un peu froide du coup et c'est dommage. Il y a des petits plats préparés sur place mais ça reste du snacking. Le petit déjeuner est correct. Compter 50€ de taxi depuis Castelo Branco. Le train est beaucoup moins cher et la gare de Donas est à10 min à pieds. En bref c'est l'endroit idéal pour se reposer et être au calme.

Extraordinario
Creo que es el hotel más bonito en el que he estado, y probablemente uno en los que más a gusto me he encontrado. Es cierto que me suelo alojar en una gama más baja, pero incluso entre los hoteles de lujo, es difícil encontrar el equilibrio entre tranquilidad, diseño moderno no intrusivo, limpieza impecable, trato amable y atento, habitación luminosa, desayuno de calidad, servicios gratuitos como el jacuzzi, localización cercana a una ciudad pero con todo el encanto rústico... en definitiva, una sobresaliente relación calidad-precio. Perfecto para visitar una región, la Beira interior, muy bella, pero también para relajarse en su agradable jardín... Lamento que mi crítica pueda sonar como un folleto publicitario, pero es que el hotel y el personal del Cerca Design House se lo merecen. Por supuesto, todo es subjetivo (reconozco que me encanta su estilo arquitectónico, por ejemplo), pero para mí ha sido una estancia de las que no se olvidan.
