Stay in Sintra’s historic centre, surrounded by old lanes, traditional cafés and the green landscape that makes the town special. Explore the National Palace of Sintra and Quinta da Regaleira, then return to the calm of our family villa and its shared patio, music room and library. Sintra is hilly: expect slopes and steps when exploring on foot.

The historic centre is best explored on foot. For attractions farther uphill, such as Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle, plan transport and admission in advance. The railway connects Sintra with Lisbon; local buses and taxis are other options. Driving and parking in the old town can be difficult, so check your arrival and parking instructions before travelling.
