This is a compact but well designed house in the village of Almocageme, 30 minutes walk from Praia Adraga or Praia Grande via small roads and a sandy path down the cliffs. There are local forests to explore and the many palaces near Sintra are a 20 minute drive away. The beaches are beautiful and fine for wave-dodging, but not really safe for swimming as they were very wild and lots of big waves.
The house is well supplied and the kitchen has everything you need to cook any meal. We didn't use the wood stove but it was there to heat the downstairs; upstairs had a space heater in the large bedroom. We had 2 adults and 3 children which worked out well - the third bedroom is very small with the bed and trundle bed extended but worked for our children.
The small mini market just around the corner from the house was our main supply base, they had absolutely everything despite being an extremely small shop, surprisingly good variety of fruit and vegetables. There is a larger supermarket in Colares which is 10 mins by car, but honestly you can get most things just outside your door.
There is room to work from a laptop at the kitchen table.
The only thing we found occasionally annoying was the hot water, it's an on-demand system so you have to ensure you have the taps open enough to cause the water heater to come on. Even then there were cold spells in the shower when the system seemed to shut off temporarily for some reason. It worked but took some getting used to.
Overall an excellent base for exploring this part of Portugal, particularly if you like walking.
