we had an awesome time at the house. the space and furnishings are perfect for kids. the trampoline and swing were huge hits with our kids and nice way to decompress after sight seeing. we chose to stay little outside sintra for easier parking and to have a quieter stay and this did not disappoint. you actually are convenient to both sintra and the beaches. side bonus there is a pretty large herd of sheep that walked by the house on their grazing schedule...was quite the sight!! Sue was also great to work with , great instructions and. very responsive! highly recommend
