The house was exactly as the photos and as described, lovely homely house with everything we needed, Carlos was looking after the house for Catarina and he welcomed us and was very helpful when we arrived with lots of information about the area. The outdoor patio/barbeque area is really nice and a lovely little garden too. The swimming pool area was super really quiet most of the time we were the only family there, late afternoon families came to the pool. The pool area has a great playground for young children and a basket ball court which was great for the kids too. Lots of supermarkets within walking distance and a bakery. Ericeira is a fabulous area with amazing beaches, I really recommend this house.
