We had a great stay. Firstly the house is beautiful, historical and unique. It’s in a good spot to easily reach the beaches, Sintra and train into Lisbon. The downsides are because the house is a lovely old lady, so are the fixtures and fittings so dont expect immaculate decoration, power showers etc and we had a few visits to reset the fuse box etc when putting on more than one appliance . But overall it’s spacious and comfortable and you won’t find another house like it!
