Paulo's place is in a stunning location, nestled in a valley just below Monseratte Palace and the Sintra mountain range. It is cozy but extremely comfortable and looks out over a vast garden with lots of beautiful trees and a small river running around the edge.
Just 2 minutes down the road from the village of Galamares, it is an ideal spot from which to explore the delights of the Sintra region. Cabo da Roca and the stunning South West coastline beaches are just a few kilometers drive, while Pena Place, the Moorish Castle and the Sintra old town can be easily reached in just 15 to 20 minutes.
Paulo is a most agreeable host. Very polite, very thoughtful and very responsive to our requests. His place is well set-up, with good heating (we were here in December), comfortable furnishings, plenty of kitchen gear, a great bathroom and stable Wi-Fi that never fails. It was too cold for us to take advantage of the outdoor facilities he provides (hammock, lounges and a huge built-in barbecue), but summer visitors will love them.
100% recommended!
