We stayed with 4 couples in july 2016 and had an amazing time! The house is beautiful (on the outside and inside) and big. The house is newly renovated, and they have done a great job! There is a wide view over the countryside (hills with lemon trees and the ocean) and it has everything you need. We really enjoyed playing all the different games te house has to offer: pool, tablefootball, trampoline and ping pong. The house has a big and deep pool, which is perfect to swim in or to chill by in the hammocks or loungeseats. There is also an outside shower and outside toilets.

We made dinner almost every day using the nice big kitchenspace and (typical portugese) outdoor barbecue. Ericeira (15 min by car) and Mafra (less then 10 min by car) are not that far away, so going out for dinner wasn't a problem either. Especially Ericeira is a very alive town, because the area has a lot of beaches and is good for surfing. Both towns have plenty 'points of interest' like supermarkets (Lidl, pinco dolce, intermarche).

The host, Lia, is a very nice woman who will do everything to make sure you have a nice stay. We had some problems with our rental cars and she offered to drive us to the supermarket and gave us a phone number of a friend who could bring us somewhere, when she was not around. Lia also made a (nice looking and detailed) list of things to do in the area; eating, drinking, swimming, lisboa, etc. She responded fast when we messaged her and sher speaks very good English.

In conclusion: Awesome house, for an awesome holiday! We are 4 couples aged around 30, but the house would also be very nice for families.
