My brother and me had a fantastic time at Carlos and his wife beautiful home. We relaxed by the pool. enjoyed the sights, hiked along the coastline and visited the most beautiful beaches we had ever seen. We can highly recommend visiting Sintra, and staying at this Cottage. The location and the pool was far bigger than we expected and was at a walking distance from the grocery store and train station. This was convenient for us, because we did not have a car. We stayed at Carlos' home for 7 days; and wished we had booked more. This is a great one!
