Rita's place was ideal for our 4 week stay in Sintra. Her house was extremely well equipped, even for the two young children we have, tastefully decorated and Rita herself was the perfect host. The grounds of the house are a sun trap and so sheltered, beautiful sunshine all day and open starry skies at night. The house was private with its own entrance and drive and gave a real taste of local Sintra living. lots of amenities close by and we had lots to explore locally with our hire car. Overall I can't recommend enough!
