    Semi rural location, which suits us, with great train links into the city or Sintra etc We also used Uber to get back from Lisbon which was very reasonable. The owners were always happy to help. Room was comfy and clean and breakfast had enough...

    The owner was friendly and she gave us a good advice for visiting Sintra palaces. We could park inside the property. We like the location since it is close to parking lot near Sintra train station and also within reasonable distance to Lisbon...

Quinta do Scoto is an historic property forming part of the heritage of the Country, with close association with the Marquis de Pombal and many of the Portuguese aristocracy. Set in a village with local traditional and inexpensive restaurants and friendly villagers. This is not a tourist area so is quiet and away from the boisterous and expensive alternatives, yet with excellent public transport and road links many attractions are 10 - 15 minutes away. The local train station is 10 minutes walk away with journey costs into Sintra or Lisbon less than two euros.
Our relationship with guests is usually appreciated for friendliness, help, assistance and advice about attractions and places to visit. We run guests to local restaurants and stations and collect guests arriving on Public transport from local stations or buses. Our focus is on our guests helping them to get the best from this lovely Country.
Horse riding, tennis courts are 10 minutes walk.
