Parador Casa da Ínsua, located in Penalva do Castelo, 20 minutes away from Viseu, is a baroque style manor-house, built during the 18th century by order of Luís de Albuquerque de Mello Pereira e Cáceres, Governor and General-Captain of Cuibá and Mato Grosso, in Brazil.
In 2009, this building underwent renovation works and it became a five-star country house hotel, oriented towards leisure and events tourism.
Walking through the gardens is not the only activity you can enjoy.

Perfect for those you search a quieter place outsider the city, the Parador Casa da Ínsua stands out for its unparalleled ambiance, and its historic charm can be seen in the most surprising details.
