Guesthouse · Sintra, Portugal
Casa do Outeiro
Four rooms in a 1934 house, between the mountain mist and the smell of woodsmoke in the sitting room.
At the top of Rua do Outeiro, a six-minute walk from the historic centre. Book direct, commission-free — the price you see is the price you pay.
The rooms
Each room looks out on a different side of the hills — no two are alike.
Quarto da Bruma
Two beds (can be joined)
Facing north, towards the pines. On foggy days it is the best place in the world to read under a blanket.
105 € / night
Quarto da Serra
Queen bed (160) · balcony
A small balcony facing the hills, with room for a table, two chairs and the first coffee of the day.
120 € / night
Suíte do Miradouro
King bed (180) + sofa bed
On the top floor, with the town at your feet and the Moorish Castle on the horizon. The old bathtub stayed — it refused to leave.
150 € / night

The house
“We bought the house for the light in the sitting room — everything else came later.”
The house was built in 1934 for the family of the town doctor and spent half a century watching Sintra from the same window. We restored it in 2022 with people who know their craft: lime-washed walls, reclaimed pine floors, and the fireplace exactly where it has always been.
We are Marta and Duarte, and we live in the house next door. We make the breakfast jams, we know when the Regaleira is quiet, and we lend umbrellas without writing names down. Four rooms suit us fine: we like knowing who sleeps under this roof.
In the house
- Breakfast with bread from the town bakery and homemade jams
- Garden with lemon trees and deck chairs
- Shared sitting room with fireplace and library
- Linen bedding and Portuguese wool blankets
- Fast Wi-Fi throughout the house
- Tea and cake in the sitting room, every day at 5 pm
