We had a really special albeit extremely short stay in Izumi and Francis’s Sintra cottage. To reiterate what other guests have said, it is indeed superbly located - extremely central and yet quiet and secluded.
The little garden is a wonderful haven with views down the valley and the perfect place for breakfast and an evening drink!
Izumi and Francis are magnificent hosts and went out of their way to help us through the convolutions of Sintra’s traffic and narrow streets. Izumi’s restaurant recommendations were spot on too. All in all we would highly recommend this as a superb place to stay in Sintra. The cottage also has a very well-equipped kitchen should one wish to have meals there. Our one regret is that we didn’t have a longer stay!
