We stayed at this lovely family home for four nights as a base for s small family reunion (6 adults) where we would have cozy room to relax and enjoy each other’s company. We were warmly greeted by Duarte’s mother Maria and his friend David who gave us a tour of the house and yard. We were generously gifted with a bottle of port and chilled beverages which we enjoyed very much. We were made to feel so welcome into this authentic Portuguese family home that is filled with positive energy. We did one day trip to Sintra and used the local bus #444 from village centre close to the house. This saved us the hassle of parking on Sintra and allowed us to feel a bit like locals. We had planned more day trips which are close to Magoito but opted instead for two lovely and lazy pool days together with beautiful BBQs in the evening. The kitchen is very well stocked and we were able to make all of our meals easily. The small local market has a nice selection of everything that you’ll need. We also followed Duarte’s recommendations on fresh fish and bread available. In this house, you’ll sleep well, enjoy a fun selection of music, relax, and maybe explore the beautiful landscape beyond. Thank you Duarte and family for a wonderful stay. We wish you all the best.
