“Had a lovely relaxing week at Casa da Bia. The cottage was perfect, If only a little cold at night (our only complaint). Kitchen was particularly well equipped & outdoor area very safe for the girls to play. Praia das Macas was quiet but that’s not a complaint. Girls had the playground to themselves most mornings, plenty of room on the beach and none of the cafes were too busy – A bonus with a young family. Locals are very friendly. Ralph had lots of suggestions of things to do & places to visit and we’ll have to come back to do them another time because we kept things very simple. This trip – Playground, beach, ice cream & more ice cream !
Only disappointing note was that the tram to Sintra wasn’t in operation while we were here but I guess that’s another reason to make sure we come back”
