Fajão, one of the ten parishes of the municipality of Pampilhosa da Serra, is situated in a kind of shell surrounded by mountains, on the left the cliffs of Penalva and the Cabeço da Mata, to the right the Serra da Rocha, to the rear the Serra da Amarela and opposite the Onion Picoto. Its situation on the edge of a road that connects Beira Baixa with the other Beiras, made it a mandatory center of passage for the almocreves and other visitors who had to pass there. Village of great traditions, its essence is the shale with which most of its dwellings are built. Village of the "Schist Villages" network, is in full architectural recovery in order to promote regional tourism. It is about 20 km from Piodão village, and the accommodation in this village is of quality and at symbolic prices in relation to it. Fajão also has as its possession a village called Castanheira da Serracheia of great and also several traditions near Ceiroquinho.

No where to eat, when I ordered in I was made to go to my room to eat by the male night staff member very rudely. The room was ok but very loud when surrounding guests used the facilities in the bathroom. Basic and clean but wouldn’t stay again.

Luna Chalet are rustic chalets, and I must admit that the unit given to us was very comfortable with great views. Nice bedding, good towels, all dishes and soap needed.
