This is a great location! If you think you'll be driving around Sintra, think again. Sintra has great bus routes and the pick up point is right across the street. The historical district is a lovely stroll away, about 10 minutes for the average walker. Lots of really great gift shops are close by, as well as several choices for food. There is a pharmacy a couple of blocks away. If you want to cook in house, there is a small grocer nearby.
The house has a good selection of pots, pans and utensils. Things are well marked in English. An additional bathroom would have been nice since there were 4 adults and 1 teen, but we all agreed that this was a minor inconvenience compared to the overall accommodations.
I highly recommend this residence and the hosts!
