Positive: Staying and relaxing was absolutely wonderful. We had decided we would take the car only to go back to our house and stay as long as possible in the village. This was a great decision and everyone (8) really loved it.
Negative: It is too bad but not really needed there isn't a restaurant, some place where we can walk-in and have a meal eventhough to be honest you can book a meal or buy a few things in the grocery to cook.

Positive: Our stay at Cerdeira Schist Village (Aldeia do Xisto da Cerdeira) was an exceptional experience. The service was one of the highlights, with all the staff demonstrating remarkable friendliness and helpfulness. The accommodation itself was a haven of tranquility, distinguished by its impeccable cleanliness and comfort. The breakfast, although not having great variety, was very tasty and of high quality, ensuring an excellent start to the day. Cerdeira shows attention to modern needs, which is confirmed by the presence of an electric car charging station, a much-appreciated amenity. The only aspect we noted as a point for consideration was the absence of a television. While we understand that this is an intentional choice to promote disconnection, we suggest that the option to have one be offered to the customer. In summary, the combination of the village's natural beauty with the excellent service and quality of the facilities makes this accommodation highly recommendable for anyone seeking an authentic and restorative getaway.
