We were treated as friends and had a comfortable stay with good talks at dinner and other times. Our room, the family room, was especially cosy since it had a (closed) fireplace. The gardens and the various projects were of great interest to us! Be sure to also visit the newly opened restaurant/shop of the community which is in the village. The location of the farm community is central to all the sights around Sintra, including Cascais and the ocean. A wholehearted recommendation! We really do want to come back and visit.
