Monica's house is very warm, welcoming and spacious, and I absolutely love the personal touches and holiday paraphernalia about the house. It is situated in a quiet and peaceful area on the outskirts of Lisbon. If you are used to a regular bus service, it might be advisable to plan your journey ahead of time as the transport links are not so frequent. Monica and her family are amazingly auspicious and accommodating. The dog and I have formed a special bond. I'll miss him!
