Wha a lovely spot-- private and charming, a totally renovated gardener's cottage, this romantic hideaway has a great view of Sintra and beyond. Convenient to the old town of Sintra, be prepared for an uphill climb to town. To be honest, we did have a challenge finding it but, with Carole's quick response via email, we found the narrow street we seemed to have missed the first go round.
Carole and Stewart are friendly and helpful hosts, and everything you could want is provided. Carole stocks the refrigerator with provisions and includes a loaf of fresh bread. With cheese, bread, and wine from town, late afternoons sitting outside after a day of walking and sightseeing were relaxing and the perfect quiet time to unwind and reflect on our day before going into town for dinner.
This is a special place, connected to the property owner but totally separate and private. The attention to detail and the viision to create a unique and charming guest cottage make this one of a kind. I would stay here again and again given the opportunity to return to lovely Sintra.
