The Costa de Lisboa/Lisbon region
Lisbon There is so much to see and do in the Portuguese capital, it is hard to know where to start. Whether it’s heading into the Bairro Alto for a night of Fado music, sampling delicious cuisine in one of the many restaurants or admiring the stunning architecture at the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, the Padrão dos Descobrimentos or the Christo Rei, (to name just a few!), the choice is yours. Or simply take it easy strolling round the quirky cobbled streets - Lisbon really does have it all and is definitely worth a visit!
Estoril Estoril is for the Casino with its nightly shows. Below the casino gardens a palm-lined esplanade runs beside the sea and Tamariz beach. Sit here in one of the pavement cafes or restaurants soaking up the sun and people watching.
Sintra A day in Sintra, once the summer residence of the Portuguese monarchy, is an absolute must when visiting the area. This world heritage site, with its outstanding palaces, museums and gardens, is set amid lush wooded hills with views stretching as far as the eye can see. The coolness of its altitude in summer makes a welcome contrast to the beach.
Cabo da Roca The headland of Cabo da Roca lies at the end of the Serra de Sintra, where the hills flatten out to meet the sea. Wild and rugged, with spectacular views down the coast, it is the most western point of Continental Europe situated at latitude of 38° 47’ north and a longitude of 09 30’ west. There is little to see, except the lighthouse with the words of Luís de Camões, Portugal’s national poet, but it is well worth a trip nevertheless. You can even get a certificate from the tourist office proving that you’ve stood this far west!
Golf Courses: In the area around the village of Murches there are many fabulous golf courses, all within a 15 minute drive from the house. So whether you are a complete beginner, want to brush up on your strokes or are a real pro, there is something for everyone. The main courses are listed below.
• Penha Longa • Quinta de Marinha • Oitavos • Estoril • Estoril Sol • Lisbon Sports Club
Cascais / Murches area

With a population of about 35,000, it is a cosmopolitan and vibrant town, which lends itself perfectly to visitors.
