The house is situated in the center
of Cascais,
an eight hundred year old fisherman's village with it's balmy climate
made it a favourite place for several dethroned kings to make their
home. Although now developed into a town, Cascais
has retained its old world charm - in the old quarter you can take a
walk through winding cobbled streets with pavement taverns and restaurants serving typical Portuguese dishes. DIRECTIONS

From Cascais,
there is easy access to Sintra,
the Golfs of
the area and to Lisbon and its airport (30 km/20 miles) via a modern motorway.
Lisbon traffic makes the train an attractive alternative. Trains leave every fifteen minutes for the half hour journey along the Tagus estuary to the city center. The service continues until 2.00 am. The train station is two minutes walk from Casa da Pérgola. |
