Don't bypass the opportunity to stay in this cottage. The location is perfect. You are close to walking distance of the quaint town of Sintra yet with the feeling of being in the country. The cottage is perfect for 2, Carole did a great job of optimizing the use of space. The cottage is enchanting as is the garden patio and the view. Carole is a divine host who was helpful in every way possible. We felt a friendship bond immediately. She provided a healthy breakfast, enough for our stay including fruit, eggs, fresh bread, cereal, coffee, tea and her wonderful homemade preserves, strawberry. If you are coming to Sintra and you are a couple, or solo,this is definitely the place to stay. Enjoy!
