Sparrow's nest might be one of my most favorite AirBnb location. It was a perfect location to the center of the town but very very quiet. The beds where larger than I expected and very comfortable. There is a separation of entryways/ doors so that if two couples want some privacy, it is available. The center of the cottage is the living space/kitchen common use area. Overall I fell in love with Sintra; the town, castles, Pena Palace, and the friendly people. I would recommend walking as much as possible, visit the palaces early and avoid the tour buses. I hope Sintra can stay beautiful and not too overrun with crowds!
