The apartment is bright and cosy. It's a bit of a squeeze for more than 2 people, as there is only a 2 seater settee (and a stool) and 2 sunloungers outside) . The garden area is a lovely addition. The road outside is very noisy, but fine with windows and shutters closed. We didn't find the air con efficient enough to cool the bedrooms. The train station is a few minutes walk and you can be in cascais within minutes (great if you don't want to walk for 25 mins in the heat). Overall though we did have a lovely stay and Manuel was a very responsive host.
