The house was very spacious for a group of 10. We'd recommend paying to get the pool heated like we did. The hosts were very helpful but we didn't need to ask them too many questions. The internet is great and even reaches the pool and the the pool house. The TV channels are also excellent and if you wanted to, you could spend the whole day watching films which are in English. Towels were provided for both the bathrooms and the pool. There is plenty of fridge and freezer space with a large shopping market just 20 minutes drive away. There is also a small town which is 10 minutes walk away where you can eat and do a small grocery shop. There is an incredible amount of kitchen utensils which made cooking fun and it felt like home. The location is remote and very safe. We'd recommend getting hire cars to travel to Lisbon, Sintra, Cascais etc. There is a large gated drive. We had an amazing stay and this has really set the benchmark high for our next large family holiday.
