I had a wonderful time two day stay. The studio has the most beautiful terrace. I visited without a car from Lisbon which was easy and inexpensive. (Train to Portela de Sintra then Uber). Rita explained the walking route to get from the village onto the mountain behind which I thoroughly enjoyed. I also walked down to Adraga Beach which is about 45 mins each way by foot. The coast is spectacular. Rita kindly provided the extra things I requested and made me feel very welcome. Highly recommended. I'll be back. (If you are a keen hiker I suggest getting Rob Butler's book, Beyond Lisbon - available at Bertrands book stores in Lisbon)
