We had a fantastic holiday! Teresa truly deserves her super host badge and is a very warm hearted person who really wants to make your holiday the best it can be! We will be going back! Teresa sent us comprehensive travel directions before we set off and answered every email query promptly. Teresa met us at the station and showed us where everything was in the town and shared interesting facts about the towns history. The apartment was beautiful, exactly like the photos, and spotlessly clean and very comfortable and Teresa had very kindly left wine, cheese, biscuits, fruit and other goodies for us. The transport system is cheap and very efficient, it is easy to get to the apartment from the airport, but we chose to get a taxi back which Teresa organised for us. The apartment is perfectly placed to get to Lisbon (1/2 hr on train), Cascias lovely walk along the coast 3km (or 6 mins by train) passing great bars and restaurants overlooking the sea, and Sintra, local bus into the mountains from outside the casino 5 mins from the apartment.Teresa gave us lots of hints and tips for places to visit and eat and everywhere she suggested was wonderful! Penna Palace in Sintra is breath taking. The Belem area of Lisbon is spectacular and full of museums.We loved Cascias laid back, live music beautiful beachs, and highly recommend The House of Wonders a vegetarian restaurant with a fantastic roof top bar. You can surf, cycle (free bike hire in Cascias), or just chill out the area has so much to see and do. Heartfelt thanks Teresa for helping us to have a wonderful holiday!
