Sintra is a special place and Leonor's estate was spectacular. Leonor and family are helpful, really wonderful hosts. We had trouble with our credit cards while traveling and Leonor went out of her way to arrange secure delivery of our new cards.
The pool and two houses are gorgeous. Having private parking in Sintra makes a big difference! Each home has a kitchen, and we enjoyed homemade meals in the backyard with a view. The showers are warm and comfy, and having a bathhouse by the pool was extra convenient.
We traveled with toddlers and elders and it accommodated our needs very well.
But most importantly it felt like we were staying in part of historic Sintra itself. Beside lemon groves, under wooden cathedral ceilings.
