This home is perched atop a hill of a small quiet village. Being the top home, it is very quiet and peaceful. The home itself has plenty of space for multiple families or large groups. Highlights included a wonderful pool that is perfect for lounging around, hiking trails that lead to ruins of an abandoned village, and a large yard with plenty of space for barbecues and outdoor dinners.
Nicole offered us plenty of recommendations for things to do in the area, wineries, beaches and restaurants. She even recommended two of her chef enthusiasts to come in and cook for our families on two separate nights. This was such a treat.
Some local things that we would recommend that we're fun during our trip:
-Quinta de Regaleira, in Sintra
-Metamorphosis restaurant, in Sintra
-Quinta de Sant'Ana Winery, in Mafra
-Bread Festival, in Mafra
-Magoito Beach
(Note, do not follow the GPS to Magoito as it will take you down a precarious dirt road)
Enjoy your stay!
