Located in Lisbon’s laid-back Belém neighbourhood, this bright apartment puts you in an ideal spot to discover some of the city’s most important cultural sights. Tradition meets modern comforts in this light-filled home, with an earthy, neutral palette setting an instantly calming scene in the living room. We love the lace-inspired feature ornament above the plump sofa, as well as the two wicker chairs perfectly placed in the front of the windows to catch the morning sun. For a real dose of sunlight, however, make your way into the kitchen and through its glass door where a private patio garden awaits. Decked out with a hanging seat, lounge chairs and a table, this is the ideal spot to begin mornings over fresh coffee and locally bought pastéis de nata from the famous Pastéis de Belém pastry shop dating back to 1847 (a twelve-minute walk away). Alternatively, gather in this outdoor haven for sundowners and an alfresco feast when you’re not out sampling the local dining scene. With two elegantly pared-back bedrooms as well as a bathroom equipped with a rainfall shower, you’re all set for a comfortable, relaxing stay. When it comes to sightseeing nearby, visit... the ornate Jerónimos Monastery – a thirteen-minute walk – or spend an afternoon exploring the MAAT Museum, a twenty-minute stroll away. You’re also a twenty-minute walk from the Padrão dos Descobrimentos monument, just under a thirty-minute stroll from the Belém Tower, while Algés Beach is nine minutes away by car or just under half an hour away by public transport.
