Photos and Description of the Sintra vacation cottage rental
2 traditional houses available either separately or on a combined basis.

Set in the beautiful, historic, and UNESCO protected mountain range of Sintra, Quinta Matalva is located in a small secluded valley with pine forest backdrops and views of the sea. Quinta Matalva comprises a traditional Portuguese main house and a separate barn. The main house has a wide terrace around the immaculate swimming pool - ideal for barbecues and drinks. Matalva barn also has a terrace (but no swimming pool). From both houses there are superb views of the historic botanic gardens of Monserrate, and terraces of orange, lemon and fig trees. The renovated houses provide all modern comforts. For more information and photos, visit: www.matalva.com

Our summer holiday

What a wonderful setting - photos don't do it justice. The house was very comfortable and clean and had great views of the umbrella pine forest and the sea. Perfect to come with a large family or friends and take both the main house and barn. We will be back!

Relaxing Family Holiday

Our family of 6 adults and an 18 month old baby spent a week in the larger of the two houses and had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and inviting upon arrival and very much more spacious than we had envisioned.

The bedrooms are large and comfortable and open out to the view down the valley. The upstairs bedroom opens onto a private terrace and the two downstairs rooms onto the main terrace above the pool. The living area also opens onto this terrace and there is an outside dining table which we ate at nearly every night of our stay.

Below the main terrace there is a fenced off pool area where we also spent a lot of time sunbathing or cooling off.

The setting is secluded down a narrow lane about 10 minutes drive out of Sintra. You will need a car to come and go but in any case a car would be a good idea to explore this area. We enjoyed shopping at the local food markets, visiting the palaces in Sintra, kite surfing in Guincho, surfing in Ericeria and day trips into Lisbon.

We would highly recommend the property and the area for a holiday.
