A superb, sweet home away from all the tourists but walkable to Sintra train station, which is a central hub. There is a Pingo doce supermarket 7 mins walk away. Bring fairly reasonable walking attire, Sintra is hilly but worth every step (it’s genuinely breathtaking). Restaurants and cafes saturate the central historic area, we ate in the house more from preference. We had a car as we came from holidaying in Lisbon, however it’s not necessary in Sintra as the public transport is good and frequent. Alex was always on hand if we needed her for anything which I found incredibly reassuring. An excellent and enchanting area!
