Let me start of with saying that our two weeks in Portugal were amazing, and we would recommend everyone to visit this country ASAP!:)
We stayed one week at Carmens lovely house in Cascais, and we loved it! The house was bigger then we thought based on the images, all rooms were spacious and there are three bathrooms! It also has lovely outdoor areas with a built in BBQ and seating in the sun and in the shadow, with a pool to cool down in on a hot day. The house is tidy and clean and you don't feel like you are intruding on someone's house (which is sometimes the case with holiday rentals), but it still has a charm to it that makes it feel like 'home', which you will love! Carmen has decorated with a fun and laid back style, which we liked. It is also worth mentioning that Carmen is a lovely host and she was available to us if we needed help with anything, although everything ran smoothly.
The house is in close proximity to Cascais and a nearby beach , but we rented a car so we could explore more of the area around, and recommend that.
All in all we have nothing negative to say about this house, and would warmly recommend it to anyone:)
