A short two night stay but an amazing experience . The hospitality was outstanding! We arrived so, so late( almost midnight) , as we got lost, but our host did gave us instructions along the way and waited for us. So, so pleased with this! We really loved the homey feel of the place, the rustic vibe, the patio and the fact that the place was SPARKLING clean. Everything was perfect and I wish the weather would have been better ( our first day it was cold and rainy) and we would have had more time to stay and relax. I actually felt bad for staying such short time, as I kept thinking how hard it is to clean the house for the next guests. Thanks you to our lovely host for being so nice during our stay and for the attractions list! The house has everything you need for a comfortable vacation.Kitchen was complete, house sparkling clean , extra blankets and pillows in the closet and the AC unit gave heat also. We were three girls and we tried to keep the house as neat as possible. We tidied everything as much as we could , washed the dishes and made sure we did not leave any mess around.
We parked for free a few metres from the house and we drove into Sintra the next day. We got back home late at night and we stayed up until late, chatting and laughing about our spooky Pena Castle visit on such foggy day.
The host's mother was home when we left the next day and she asked us if we liked the place and also waited for us until we were in the car on our way. Of course we did!!!!!! Then she waived us goodbye! Awwww...so, so sweet! I hope one day we go back and stay longer. The little yard with the grape vines is to die for. So peaceful and serene, even if the house is on main street( but tucked away towards the back of the property). It was quiet at night and we slept like babies. By the way, the wifi was really good too.
Our thanks to Silvina and her mother, they are outstanding hosts that deserve only the best guests. AMAZING!
We will not hesitate to recommend your place to anyone! It deserves tumbs up, 100%!
