A Casa do Tio Tenente is a restored hotel in the Aldeias de Xisto region of Beira Baixa, Portugal. It occupies a distinctive house built in the late nineteenth century for José Alves Pereira, a Portuguese army lieutenant who served in the First World War. Known locally as “Tio Tenente,” he inspired the hotel’s name, which honours his memory and connection to the village. The property was once also called the House of Three Peaks, after its unusual inverted roof.

Restored to preserve its historic character, the building combines traditional materials with a comfortable interior. Its exterior is clad in schist stone, while pine wood features across the floors, walls and ceilings. This distinctive setting makes the hotel a notable place to stay in the region. A Casa do Tio Tenente offers accommodation and welcomes enquiries and reservations by phone or email. Visitors can explore the property through its gallery and find information about its location on the hotel’s website.
