Carole's cottage is idyllic. How we wished we could have stayed longer! The cottage itself is charming, and the views over Sintra are spectacular. Very romantic! Carole has thought of everything to make one's stay comfortable. She even provides driving directions. Please read them. We forgot we had them and drove around the winding, one-way streets of Sintra for close to an hour before we found the place. Leaving the city with Carole's directions was much easier.
