Rita was a welcoming and friendly host. We were a family group of 6 adults and we all thoroughly enjoyed the well appointed house, the shaded lawn and the pool. There was plenty of room to spread out and the kitchen facilities were great. The location was quiet and peaceful. We explored quite a lot of Sintra on foot and by bus and found that walking on the local roads was easy enough for us, though there were few footpaths. The local food shop was well stocked and local transport easy to use once we had a timetable which Rita provided. The tram ride to Praia das Marcas was a highlight! We definitely recommend this accommodation and the host Rita to people seeking a relaxing holiday in an interesting area.
