Get to know "Franco da Serra" a little better

Brief History

Once they returned to Terceira Island from São Tomé and Príncipe at the end of the 19th century, where they made their fortune in the cocoa business, the Silveira and Paulo brothers built sumptuous houses in the colonial style of the era, called "Casas dos Africanos" (Houses of the Africans). One of the brothers built this summer house in Terra-Chã, which, marking his wanderings around the world, displays in the Abrevoir (chafariz), in addition to the construction date, the head of an African with a colonial helmet sculpted from Azorean basalt.

The Casa do Campo thus represents an excellent example of the chalets built in the transition from the 19th to the 20th century.

Our Mission

From pride in the uniqueness of being Azorean arises the desire to introduce every corner of this archipelago and the traditions that endure from generation to generation.

From traditional Azorean hospitality arises the desire to provide unforgettable and personalized experiences to those who visit us.

From the passion for the region's nature and the rural heritage that endures, arises the desire to promote direct contact with nature and the adoption of sustainable tourism.

We exist to provide those who visit us with an experience that will linger in their memory, while revealing the hidden secrets of this unique archipelago, promoting responsible and sustainable tourism, and the timelessness of our traditions.
