Started our month long Portugal adventure with 3 nights in Sintra. Carole's place was an ideal location to recover from travels, loved having a covered heated pool for stretching out & the garden to sit and enjoy the views. When it got chilly, we could still enjoy the views from the comfortable sitting room. From this location we were able to see the highlights of Sintra, plus explore the town and had the option of cooking simple meals in the lovely kitchen. Our hosts were warm, welcoming, friendly and informative. The place is better than advertised.
