The house is exactly as described and the hosts are very friendly and helpfull.
The view is beautiful and the pool very nice. Everything you need is provided and more (we loved the fresh fruits and vegetables we got from their nextdoor garden).
It takes about an half hour to Lisbon (we did the guided bike tour in Dutch and liked the tile museum among other things). It was so nice to visit the Palacio the Pena, which you see everyday on the hill (go early, with the first bus from Sintra station!)
We were unfortunate to have a very strong, cold wind (coming from the Atlantic) the first 11 days which prevented a nice time outside :-(
The last days we had beautiful weather and then the stay here is fantastic.
