Lovely home in tranquil environment
We stayed here for 4 nights at the beginning of our Portugal vacation. The home was very comfortable and well situated for day trips to Sintra, Cascais, and other surrounding areas, and the garden and patio outside were a pleasant retreat from the tourist spots we visited. There are supermarkets nearby with everything we needed during our stay.

Peaceful and colourful oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of Sintra sites. Easy access by train to Lisbon and Cascais and the small rural community of Colares.

Stunning Quinta in Sintra
Beautiful gardens to enjoy in front and back, spacious rooms. Close to many sites, yet not in the city. Grocery store close however a but car is required. Hosts were very gracious and close by. Library, piano and harp adorn this stone decor. Truly worth the stay.

Beautiful house, lovely art and comforts.
We had 2 weeks enjoyable weeks here, despite the rain, and appreciated the space , the fireplace, the washer and dryer( rare in Europe) and our host. A car is essential as the village has no amenities.

Taking in the Portuguese culture
The property is lovely and the host was great and even the location was away from typical tourist areas. I love the idea of preserving history and this house has done that perfectly. I also believe you can preserve a lovely home and still provide fresh atmosphere and updated furniture. Unfortunately there was no where we felt comfortable sitting - between the musty smell and the extremely old/ uncomfortable couches and chairs - really that ruined it for us. Some people maybe okay with the musty smell and enjoy the older feeling home.

Idyllic and Charming Stay
We really enjoyed this home. It oozes atmosphere and comfort and was a pleasure to spend time in. The garden is a tranquil retreat. It is located in a lovely area convenient to the local villages and to Sintra. The information provided on local restaurants, supermarkets etc is comprehensive and we would not have discovered them on our own. We had our own car. Sofia is a terrific host.

Amazing gardens
What an absolute gem this place is.The photos speak for themselves; the house and gardens really are as beautiful as they look. it's like having your own private botanical garden for 4 days. The work that has clearly gone in to them is mightily impressive and was greatly appreciated. Sofia is lovely. There was not a booking either side of our arrival and departure dates so she was very flexible with check in and out which we really appreciated.

What a great find!
Truly a remarkable stay. Sofia has done an amazing job inside and out of this historic home. It is evident throughout that she has a special eye for how elements and color can work together. Very unique. Extremely relaxing. A great find for sure. The colorful blooming landscape variety all around the house was a particularly nice treat. We felt like we were hanging out in a private arboretum. Bonus points for that! It’s perfectly located about halfway between Sintra and the beach communities to the west. Short drives. Fantastic host too. We loved it all!

Nice, characteristic Portugese house
We had a lovely stay in Sofia’s place. Good communication and responsive to all our needs and questions. The house itself is a Portugese gem, very stylish furnished and all kinds of sitting areas to hang out. The outside areas we did not use at all since the weather was not that great, but I can imagine it will be just as comfortable in the summertime. We were very happy with the fireplace which we used almost every evening. The only downside of this location was the neighbors dog which barked a lot. It is really sad to see how the Portugese handle their dogs, I would bark all day to draw some attention. But overall we had a very satisfying stay! Thanks again Sofia!

Lovely House
A very nice house in a village outside of Lisbon near Sintra. The house was very clean, with 2 good size bedrooms downstairs and one upstairs. The lounge area was very comfortable. The kitchen is a bit small but had everything we needed. The key feature of the house is that its cool. Even in April it was quite hot outside so it is a bit of an oasis inside, particularly if coming back from the city. The village has a couple of restaurants but no shops so its 5 mins by car to the nearest small supermarket. A car is essential for the area anyway. Our host Sofia lives next door and was super helpful and speaks good English, as does everyone in fact. Theres parking directly outside the house and its about 35 mins drive from the airport so pretty handy really. And you can drive to the beach in less than 10 mins. So all in all a very pleasant stay.

Un séjour magnifique dans une maison qui l’était tout autant !
Le séjour était en rapport avec le mariage de notre fils avec une charmante portugaise ! La fête de trois jours a été à la hauteur de l’événement 🤗 !!! Les autres jours nous ont permis de découvrir quelques merveilles autour de Lisbonne.

Großartige Unterkunft
Wir haben mit unseren Kindern eine tolle Zeit im Haus von Sofia verbracht. Die Lage ist perfekt um einen Mix aus Strand-, Stadt- und Landurlaub zu verbringen. Zum Erholen ist der Garten und das liebevoll eingerichtete Haus ideal. Die Nähe zu Lissabon lässt auch Großstadturlauber auf ihre Kosten kommen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Much to see in Sintra
If you really study the images for this listing you know it’s a special place. Sofia has imbued her home with wonderful art and furnishings that will make you feel at home. There are a couple of marvelous outdoor spaces with a profusion of landscaping. Sofia and her husband are next door so readily available if you need anything. Nafarros is the neighborhood you are in so you are close to Sintra which has a wealth of historical sights and Lisbon is an easy 40 minute train ride for all there is to see there. Going west from the rental there are lots of beaches and small villages to explore. You hardly have time to enjoy Sofia’s place!

Wonderful Home & Host
Our family of four truly loved staying at historic Stone & Cal. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed for our 8-day stay. We especially loved the outdoor areas and spent lots of time relaxing in both the front courtyard and in the rear seating area overlooking Sofia's lovely yard. Sofia is such a gracious host and we enjoyed getting to know her. She was very responsive to our needs and her extra touches ensured that we had all that we needed for a great visit. The location of the home is very convenient to all the sights in Sintra (we suggest taking an Uber to avoid the frustration of driving and parking in congested Sintra) plus very near a number of gorgeous beaches. Colares is a nice stop for groceries, a brewery, etc. We also appreciated the daily outdoor visits from the neighbor's sweet orange cat and viewing Sofia's chickens from a distance. Thank you, Sofia, for the care you take in ensuring that your guests are well taken care of and happy! You helped make our vacation memorable!

idyllic stay
This spacious, thoughtful accommodation was perfect for our family reunion. Sofia is a gracious, available host. We found this property to be stunningly beautiful with incredible views, and the perfect spot for our trip of 4-5 days - you can easily access any point of interest for sightseeing or the less-touristy attractions as well. Simply gorgeous! We highly recommend this property and host :)

Our trip to Portugal
The property that we rented was very pleasant Towels and sheets were clean and the beds were comfortable. We were impressed with the art work on the walls and also the design of the house. There were many interesting layers to the house as well as a front and back courtyard. Sofia was an excellent host and was always available if needed ere are quite a few steps in the house so I would not recommend this rental for anyone that has trouble walking. I would think kids would love all the different areas. The kitchen was well stocked with glasses, silverware etc and all appliances worked well. The only suggestion I would make is to get one of those coffee makers that uses the small cups for a cup of coffee or espresso. There is a plunger glass coffee maker but I didn't like dealing with the coffee grounds. We wound up drinking tea which suited us fine.
