With its privileged position overlooking the UNESCO protected centre of Sintra, this apartment opens its doors to the spectacular beauty of the Portuguese Riviera. Nestled amongst the majestic pine trees with mesmerising views across the mountains toward the castle, every detail of this home is immersed in the unique charm of its location. And while the apartment might be compact, the owners have cleverly designed the space to feel bright and generous. You’ll love opening the balcony doors and savouring the fresh air whilst sipping your morning coffee, or later with drinks as the sun sets across the hills. The kitchenette is fully equipped and has everything you could need to prepare a light bite, while the dining table provides the perfect opportunity to soak up the views and plan your day. Outside, the dreamy palaces, opulent villas and renowned medieval Moorish castle are all within easy reach. Your host has a wealth of knowledge and can provide great recommendations on the best restaurants for a taste of local tradition. And for explorations further afield, you’ll find Lisbon is less than an hour’s drive or train ride away.
