Celorico de Basto
Casa de Pelicas

A country house in Celorico de Basto
Rural Minho, the Tâmega ecotrail, and a genuinely rustic house with a private pool — Casa de Pelicas, for up to 10 guests.
Celorico de Basto is the quieter side of this stretch of Minho: farmland, river, and the Tâmega ecotrail instead of national-park crowds. Casa de Pelicas belongs here — a fireplace that is actually used, long tables, and a pool in the garden.
It is the house we recommend when the group is larger and the plan is meals at home, a bike ride on the ecotrail, and a castle or a river beach when you feel like leaving the garden.

The area
What to do from Casa de Pelicas
Tâmega Ecotrail
The old railway line is the outing we suggest most: walk or cycle as far as you like, then come back to the pool.
Arnoia Castle
A short hop from the house. Enough history for an hour, without turning the day into a museum circuit.
River beaches
Fermil de Basto is the river beach guests ask about. Pair it with a slow lunch back at the house.
Alto do Viso
The viewpoint for late light. Celorico is not Gerês; the views here are farmland and river, which is the point.
Agilde miniature village
Pedro Lemos’s handmade village, about 25 minutes from the house. Free entry, an hour is enough, and it is the outing that works with children.
