We have to concur with so many other reviews that this chalet was an excellent find for our first visit to Sintra, which was a perfect base for it's exploration as well as visiting Lisbon and the surrounding coastal resorts. We had use of safe off street car parking and easy access to the bus stop and train station.
The chalet is so stylish, immaculately presented, with some impressive items on view. It was very relaxing and homely (...shame our house is not more like this). Every morning we would wake up to Helen's breakfast, which set us up for the day and then we would return exhausted to enjoy some refreshments and cake. We were fortunate enough to meet Carlos a few times during our stay and he was a perfect host providing helpful information and good conversation. His warm welcome and the sharing of stories and tips with fellow travellers added to our overall experience and we have no hesitation recommending this venue to others. We only wish we had more time to stay.
