Recently returned from a birding trip with friends to Portugal, and one of the places we had the good fortune to stay was at Casa da Cisterna in the Castelo Rodrigo historic village. Ana and her team made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Our room was beautiful and comfortable, and it had lovely bird touches in the decor. In fact, a love of birds is obvious throughout the decor at Cisterna. The two dinners we ate there were delicious and highlighted local foods and recipes from olive oil and quince to chestnut pudding and almond tart. Ana paired the food with local wines, about which she is very knowledgeable. Ana is also a biologist and took us on a fascinating nighttime trip to see the 15,000 to 30,000-year-old Paleolithic rock art at Foz Côa Valley. If you get to Portugal, put this area and Casa Cisterna on your must visit list!
