We spent a very relxing 9 days at Barbara's house which has really amazing views, better than seen on the photos and always with the sound of the waves around you. Calm area, parking space available, little shops around the corner and surfers in front of your terrace. A very good location to start your visits to Sintra and Cascais. We also used the tramway from Praia das Macas to Sintra which was a lovely trip of roughly 40 minutes and you avoid the parking problems in Sintra. Very recommendable!
