We stayed at Phil's guesthouse for five days, it is very spacious, clean, comfortable and well maintained. It is exactly like the pictures. The communication with the host was great and he even left us some traditional Portuguese pastries. The village of sintra is very beautiful, the guesthouse however is a little far from the main town centre and is in a little rural location. I would also recommend to hire a car to get to and from places easily. Overall a great trip, highly recommend this accommodation.
