The Casas da Encosta project consists of three schist houses that are under restoration in Cunqueiros, a village in the Proença-a-Nova district. Here you can relive the life, history and culture of the local people, in the comfort of a typical village in the Beira region. The property's owners, Nuno e Rita, tell us that the houses are being restored with respect to local building traditions where schist, clay and wood are the predominant features.
