The place is located very conveniently close to public transport, cafes and restaurants. You may catch the Urbana Sintra 433 and then the 434 to catch the circuit route around to all the castles in Sintra. If you’d like to make it out to the coast then the 403 from Sintra station takes you there and you start from Praia do Aldraga to Cabo do Roca. It’s was the best beach to stay at. Then the train to Lisboa takes an hour from Portola da Sintra.
Thanks for a great stay in Sintra! Cosy room with all we need. Located close to toilets. Great Jazz collection and comfy bed. Very helpful with the washing I had and some suggestions of places to visit. Hosts are great to have a chat with and are travellers themselves, so plenty of stories to share - a very open pair :) Thanks again!
