Two cabinsin the middleof the hills.
Codeçoso, Celorico de Basto. Two wooden hideaways among vines and terraces.
We’re getting the cabins ready.
We’re aiming to open around April 1, 2027.
Both cabins
Two cabins, two climates. Tap one to change the page.
Green right up to the door.
Tucked against the woods, with shade, water and birds close by. For anyone who really wants to switch off.

Open to the valley.
More light and more horizon: the valley ahead and, at the end of the day, the lights down below. For people who like to see far.

A whole day, in seconds
Arrive in the afternoon. Wake up to the mist.
Scroll slowly: the light passes through both cabins, from late afternoon to the first coffee. If you stop, the day carries on by itself.
Arrival
The afternoon light is still high. Drop your bags and open the wooden door.

Experience
Here, the clock is optional.
Two cabins, one mountain and no hurry. This is what we want your time here to be.
A swim, without looking at the time.
A 6 × 3 metre pool, planned for the middle of the land, halfway between the two cabins. For warm afternoons, for feet in the water at the end of the day, for doing nothing else.
Warmth on the skin, lightness in everything else.
A small sauna is part of the vision for the retreat. It is still being planned, so we don’t promise it: we’ll say so here, and to everyone who has already booked, when it is real.
An open window and a day with no plans.
Read one more page. Linger over breakfast. Follow the sun from window to window, and let the green be the best part of the day.

Codeçoso · Celorico de Basto
A green valley, in the North.
Codeçoso is in the municipality of Celorico de Basto, in northern Portugal. Rural terraced land, surrounded by green, near the Tâmega river.
Official boundaries (CAOP), simplified. The Tâmega river is an approximate line. Distances are as the crow flies, from the centre of the Codeçoso parish.

Three Romanesque churches, close to the cabins
Carved portals, capitals with foliage and pearls engraved in granite. In Celorico de Basto, three 13th-century churches are part of the Rota do Românico.
The Tâmega: greenway, riverbanks and river beaches
A river with banks for summer and the old railway line that runs beside it, now a path for walking or cycling. It has a station in Codeçoso.
Water mills, from the Bugio to Freixieiro
Around here the mills you can visit are water mills. It was the river that ground the grain, sawed the timber and even distilled the brandy.
Vinho verde from Basto
Basto is one of the nine vinho verde sub-regions, with typical grape varieties such as Azal, Padeiro and Vinhão.
At the table, in Terras de Basto
Cornbread, smoked meats, kid and sweets: what people eat here, a dish with a recipe and what happens at festival time.
A day without a clock
An idea of what a day here can be like, with no list of things to do. Concept text, written to show the tone.
Why here
The story of this place, still to be told by the host.
