The house is beautiful and the location absolutely perfect. It was literally a 4 minutes walk to the beach and train station, from where you can travel the 35 minutes journey by train to Lisbon every 12 minutes or so (very reliable). There is a bar next door which has live music every night (apart from Tuesdays). The 5 minute walk to the Tiny Pub is an absolute must while it lasts.
The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. It was a shame that there were noisy building works on the flat above the house and if it hadn't been for that it would have been a perfect stay. It wasn't Rui's fault and he apologised many times. Hopefully the building work will be completed soon.
Rui was a fantastic host, helping us with everything we needed, showing us around and taking us to the main supermarket in Cascais to get supplies. His private taxi service, run by the wonderful Jaime, was a massive bonus. Jaime also provided us with a wealth of information and took us wherever we needed to go at short notice.
All in all we had a lovely stay in Estoril and will hope to return to Rui's house soon.
