Baixa-Chiado Station cottages

We loved everything about Faramilo Cottage! The property and location were fantastic and we cant wait to return!

The pictures didn’t do this accomodations justice - this was such a romantic little place with a spectacular view! Carole was fabulous hostess and made us feel right at home. There are other accommodations on the property but it still felt very private. If you get a chance take a late night dip in the beautiful greenhouse pool. The B&B is close to all the major sites in Sintra, it’s also very close to the beach which can be reached via car or tram. Cons (which aren’t a reflection on the B&B but rather the area): - Sintra is a VERY busy tourist destination which is something I wasn’t quite prepared for. It wasn’t enjoyable walking about with 1000’s of people and we found ourselves perfectly content in our very quite/private B&B - if you rented a car and will be driving here, prepare yourself lol. It’s not for the faint of heart. Roads are beyond narrow, a million other drivers / walking tourists and google maps is not the best. Make sure to really read over the directions before hand and do a meditation and a pray ;) - our room was also quite hot in the bedroom loft and a fan would have been a lovely addition
