Home description
The cottages have been in the family for over 50 years, having been bought new by my grandfather. They have been used as the family holiday home for three generations. They have undergone extensive renovations in the winter of 2004 and are now completely refurbished. Both houses are surrounded by traditional courtyards with grape vines and flower beds - a great place for barbecue's! - each having exclusive access to their own courtyard. If you wish to rent both properties, access between the two can be given. Sea views can be seen from the door porch and it's only a short walk to the beach. There is also an Olympic sized swimming pool by the beach for those who do not wish to venture the waves which includes a children's pool as well. We've got our own website for these properties where you can find more photos and extra information. Please contact us for our web site address. We'll greet you at the cottages with a welcome basket and are available at any time as we live nearby.

The Costa de Lisboa/Lisbon region
The cottages are located in the small, welcoming sea village of Praia das Maçãs, with a friendly atmosphere, attracting all age groups. Situated on the west coast of Portugal, just north of Lisbon, Praia das Maçãs is only 12km from the exquisitely beautiful world heritage site town of Sintra which boasts amongst it’s major attractions, the Moorish castle and the fairy-tale like Palácio da Pena (Pena Palace). There is also easy access to Lisbon itself, the famous casino in Estoril, or the beautiful marina at Cascais.
Sintra / Praia das Macas, Apple Beach area
Whether on a romantic break, family or friends holiday the choices are endless both in activities and entertainment, with golden sandy beaches just a small stroll away. You're spoilt for choice with so many great seafood or traditional Portuguese cuisine restaurants just a few minutes walk from the house (and the beach!), where you can relax and enjoy life... with a nice glass of wine! It won't cost you an arm and a leg either, so you can try a different one each night.

Guestbook for Vila Arcos
We have many other guestbook comments on our personal website, please enquire for details:
"From the USA, we were transported to the wonderful world of Praia das Maçãs and, indeed, of Portugal. In addition to enjoying the charming village, we took fabulous day trips throughout the region. Ralph and Ana's cottages provide delightfully simple quarters for relaxing or using as a home base for further exploration. Ana and Ralph are gracious hosts, providing translation services when needed, tips on places to visit, suggestions for restaurants, colourful information on national and local history and culture, and creature services beyond the norm to make our accommodations comfortable. We highly recommend these cottages for those who like to stay
"We had a great time here and everything was as Ana and Ralph said it would be. The beaches were very unspoilt and uncrowded, the villa was immaculate and it was easy to get around without a car. Sintra is definitely well worth a visit. We would certainly recommend this as a holiday." Nigel & Carolyn Conquest, UK – August 2006among the locals in pristine accommodations at a reasonable price." Kathy & Dick Hughes and Jack Williamson, USA – April 2007
"Thank you for a fantastic holiday. The house is perfect and very comfortable, and everything you need or want is there!" Jan de Meulenaere, Belgium – July 2005
