The capital city with its river and famous buildings.
The coast has small, sophisticated south facing resorts while the western facing beaches are popular with surfers.
Sintra is famous for its palaces built over the centuries and much cooler climate.
Cascais, Estoril and Sintra on the west coast all have regular rail connections to the city and make interesting alternatives.
This is an area where there are now many championship golf courses.
Smaller parties requiring one or two bedrooms might like to look at the listing of cottages in the area. These cottages are usually the homes of the former estate workers with a number grouped together near the manor house. They have the use of a nearby swimming pool which is shared with the other cottages. They all have the highest quality conversion and have been inspected by us.
