We stayed in Chico's house during the first 2 weeks op April 2014. The house is very comfortable (4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms) and beautiful, even better than on the pictures! Warm with the wood fire inside when cold outside and a very nice garden with pool ca. 9 m long for hot weather. The kitchen is provided with good cooking stuff and even a recipe book for typical Portuguese dishes. We had a very warm welcome by Teresa with home made chutneys served on local wood oven baked bread. The tips she and Manel gave us were very useful. The Sintra parks and castles are very nice to visit. Lisboa is a 45 min drive. We can also recommend the local market in Montelavar and the Lobo wolf center in Maffra. We had a fantastic holiday, thanks you Chico, Teresa and Manel!!
