    Set within the historic Solar das Arcas, classified as a Property of Public Interest, this apartment provides a unique experience in a manor house with a rich history dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. Traditionally attributed to Nicolau Nasoni, the estate was designed as the main residence of the Pessanha family and remains in their possession today. Carefully preserved and later enhanced by architect João Bernardo Távora, it is now open to guests as a distinctive rural tourism destination, combining heritage, comfort and nature.
    The property stands out for its architectural charm and character, including elegant halls, a private chapel, traditional kitchens and a striking outdoor swimming pool. Guests have access to the pool, gardens, orchard, vegetable garden and surrounding outdoor areas, all set within an active agricultural and forestry landscape. Selected areas of the estate may also be visited by appointment.
    Located in the village of Arcas, in the municipality of Macedo de Cavaleiros, in the Trás-os-Montes region of Portugal, the property is just 10 km from the Azibo reservoir, one of the most beautiful natural leisure areas in the region.
    This is an ideal destination for those seeking tranquillity, fresh air and close contact with nature. The surrounding landscape invites walking, exploration and relaxation, while the region offers excellent gastronomy and authentic rural experiences. A car is recommended to fully enjoy the area and discover its hidden corners. Guests are encouraged to explore the countryside and even enjoy a picnic with regional products in a peaceful natural setting.
    Enjoy a truly relaxing and memorable stay in the heart of Trás-os-Montes.

Local calmo, com uma piscina partilhada mas muito agradável. Bem recebidos e sempre prestáveis a resolver qualquer problema que surgisse. Apartamento limpo e muito agradável. A internet não é de grande qualidade, não estando disponível dentro da habitação. Não tem máquina de lavar loiça como refere no anuncio.
