We really enjoyed our stay at Bernardo's house. It is a rustic cottage with a stunning view of the coast, feels very private and has an amazing outdoor fire place for enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets! It is close to beaches and has has some great coastal walks you can take from the house. It is well situated, being in close proximity to Sintra and some other nice places to visit, as well as being a short drive from a lot of great seafood restaurants along the beaches. You will definitely need a car though as the house is a little remote, but well worth it for the privacy. We would definitely stay again.
