We had a perfect stay. Cascais is exceptionally attractive. The house is a short walk from train (to Belem, Lisbon etc) and bus station (to Sintra). Good facilities very near including shops (especially bakeries), museums and numerous restaurants. Clean swimming beach only 5 mins away. Although in the middle of town, the house felt nicely private with pretty garden area. Top floor "flat" a bonus with great terrace views.
