Lovely cottage with spectacular views and a wonderful garden. Carole is super friendly and helpful, stocking the fridge with breakfast essentials and supplying fresh bread and homegrown tomatoes for free. She even gave us a new toothbrush when we forgot to bring our own! A couple of points to note, if you're not the most confident driver it's worth knowing that the roads around Sintra and especially around the cottage are very narrow and some are very steep. You may struggle with a manual car (if it's a rental and you're not used to driving) and / or a larger car. We found the cottage a bit difficult to find at first, especially as we arrived at night and it's tucked away in Sintra's narrow lanes, but Carole was kind enough to walk out into the street to guide us. However, the cottage is easy to get to from Lisbon airport by car and is also within easy reach of some lovely beaches. It's also easy to walk to some of Sintra's main attractions from the cottage (but be prepared for some steep hikes uphill)!
