We were more than 10 in the house for christmas, and it was perfect! Thanks to Jay and his wife for welcoming us. We were very comfortable and warm thanks to the fireplace (you can buy big bags of wood in the intermarche supermarket nearby). Don't have a car to transport that wood? Don't worry the house has heaters in every room (except the one in the first floor for two children, a small electrical heater there could be great when winter is too cold). The beach is very nearby the house, small with rocks but charming. Also the start of walk to cascais, very nice.
