Description from owner

Description

Hello! We are a couple, journalist and photographer, passionate about traveling, gardening, recycling...

Our goal is to provide a SHELTE, where the views invites you to lose your thoughts. Near @ Guincho beach, Cascais, Portugal

The Shelter_En

The great attraction of the house is the wonderful views and the garden.

THE HOUSE has one bedroom, living room, bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen.We recommend the house for two people, but are accepted up to 4 for the same price. We have a sofa bed in the living room!

There's Wi-Fi, TV and music!

WHERE

The house is located in the Natural Park of Sintra-Cascais, near the beauty of the Serra de Sintra and the Atlantic Ocean.By car, you'll find:

- In 5 minutes, Guincho beach, very popular for surfing (with surf schools);

- In 10 min., Cascais, charming little village full of restaurants, stores and bars that cater to all tastes and needs;

- In 15 min., Sintra, Unesco World Heritage Site, one of the best places to visit, especially the 'old village' and Palaces (Palácio Nacional da Pena, Palácio Nacional de Sintra, among others).

- In 25 min., Lisbon, one of the most beautiful cities in the world, for sure!You can use the highway (A5 Cascais-Lisboa) or you can go by train from Cascais

Once in the city, you can use the subway.

IMPORTANT: It's not impossible, but I must say that it isn't easy to stay at The Shelter without a car… unless you like to walk!
