Sintra | Cozy house at the bottom of Sintra Mountains with Palace views

House with patio, located in Ribeira de Sintra, a small and peaceful village 15 minutes by car from the beaches and 25 minutes on foot from the historic center of Sintra and also from the train station where buses leave for Castelo dos Mouros and Palácio da Pena.

On the terrace you can relax to the sound of birds while looking out over the beautiful and leafy mountains. The house is equipped with kitchen equipment and crockery, oven and electric hob, refrigerator, microwave, toaster and Dolce Gusto espresso machine.

A few meters ahead you will find a café and a small grocery store.

Casa da Rocha is an old farmhouse that has been refurbished and divided into two ground floor apartments. This is the Aptº Red Fruits.
This house is also convenient for those who want to visit Lisbon, which is 30 min away by car or 35 min by train and then come to sleep in a quiet, cooler place with the air of the mountains. You can still take a half-day trip to Cascais, Estoril, Cabo da Roca, Mafra or Ericeira.

Other interesting places that you can visit in a 1-day visit: Peniche, Nazaré, Alcobaça, Óbidos, Batalha, Fátima, Tomar, Setúbal, Palmela, and many others within a radius of 100km.

This is a place with history because it was in this space, in 1836, that was born casually the now so famous Pêra Rocha that owes its name to the then owner, Mr. António Rocha. From here it has spread all over the region of Sintra and then to the West region
