Not the most convenient location in the Sintra area (but also not too inconvenient, with town just minutes away), but the most private, quiet and picturesque. Also quite roomy. The yard and garden on the properly are wonderful -- if we hadn't had plans around Sintra that day, we could have relaxed at the apartment all day and thoroughly enjoyed it. The location really gives a good taste of what it's like to live in the beautiful countryside of coastal Portugal.
