Anne was an exceptional host and her place is beautiful. The communication prior to staying was excellent and we received a very warm welcome from her and the two lovely sisters who work for her. The place is great value for money and I would recommend going there even if you didn't want to explore Sintra (which was absolutely packed with people - we left our visit to Penu Palace as the queues were horrendous). The main house is well equipped for self catering and the set out of the garden allows a sense of privacy even with other guests. We absolutely loved it and loved meeting Anne. Thank you!!!
