This is a beautiful, spacious house tucked away in a quiet neighbourhood. It is very clean and attractively furnished with good, functional bathrooms and a kitchen with everything you need. The promenade and beaches can be reached quite quickly, but take some advice about the route - streets are windy and you have to access the promenade via a tunnel! Once you are there it's a nice walk in both directions, with cafés along the way. You can also walk to the centre of pretty Cascais in about 30 minutes and find both sandy and rocky beaches. For shopping, there is a great shop on the corner for basics, about 1 minute away from the house. Other shops just a few minutes further. You don't need to hire a car -- Sintra can be reached by taxi in about 20 minutes, and Lisbon by train. Lots of good restaurants within walking distance. Margarida and Tomas are very helpful and friendly hosts. A great stay. Thanks!
