The house is in a wonderful location, away from all the crowds in Sintra but close enough to walk there when we wanted to. We loved staying in what was clearly a family home with so many things to make it feel like home from home. Rosa was ready to help with any little problems and Claudia could not have been more responsive to the requests we had. The weather for end of October was very kind to us. Six days in Sintra was enough for us to see most of the key sites but we could have stayed longer as there is so much to see both in Sintra and the surrounding areas.
