My daughter and I spent four nights here while visiting Sintra. Although we did not meet Beatriz, her mother Isobel was kind enough to greet us for a late check-in (9:30pm).
The location was wonderful, and the house had all the amenities you could hope for. We especially enjoyed the fresh ground coffee every morning! We were greeted with bread, cheese, wine and cake - lovely!! A litre of milk had thoughtfully been left for us in the fridge. (Please note that there are no supermarkets in this part of town.)
The only drawback to this accommodation was that the house is extremely damp, musty, and possibly mouldy. Allergy sufferers beware. A very strong smell is pervasive throughout, and everything in the house felt very damp, including our bedding and clothing. There was a heater in the living room and another in the bedroom in an attempt to limit the damp air. Other than this, everything was great.
