Manor House

Number of rooms: 5

Quinta das Sequoias is a charming house nestling in a majestic forest of centuries-old redwood trees, in the heart of Portugal’s lovely Sintra region. The hotel was recently refurbished and all its rooms have been tastefully decorated in period antiques. In fact, bed and bath suites are furnished from the owner’s antique collection. The singular manor-style dining room includes an enormous hearth and fireplace that were part of the original 19th century kitchen, whilst the trellised patio, terraced garden and landscaped pool command spectacular views of the surrounding mountains as well as Pena Palace. The hotel has managed to retain its homely atmosphere and a stay here makes for a peaceful and private experience.

ll	Activities

The romantic town of Sintra, praised by Lord Byron, is a must for those visiting the Estoril Coast. Less than twenty kilometres away, this area is particularly attractive for its lush vegetation and the original architecture of the houses, mostly dating back to the XIX century. Most important monuments are the Sintra National Palace (Paço Real or Palácio da Vila), situated in the old quarter and the Pena National Palace and Park, approx. 4.5 km from old quarter. The Queluz National Palace, 15 km from the historic centre of Sintra is also worth to be visited as are it's parks and gardens.

The Estoril Coast line and the coast to the west – at the foot of the Sintra hills is worth visiting at all the times of the year. One of the most important places for the visitor is of course, Lisbon - capital of Portugal and relatively close to Cascais. There are many places to see and things to do in this area. We suggest you check out the information in the contents section of the Lisbon hotels.

Cabo da Roca
The most westerly point of Europe, a magnificent cliff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Enjoy the delightfully unspoilt countryside, the low-growing vegetation and in the spring, the white carpet of Armeria Pseudarmeria, unique to this area.

ESTORIL

An internationally known resort, Estoril has all the facilities you will need together with a natural beauty and individual architecture blending with the surroundings. It is worth taking a stroll along to Monte Estoril, where you will find many pretty buildings on the way. In the park in front of the Casino, a colourful scene pleases the eye, edged by tall, tropical palm trees. Without losing any of its natural charm, Estoril has spread and now offers many facilities for the visitor.

Beaches:
Guincho beach, lying at the foot of the Sintra hills and facing the Atlantic, should not be missed. Also visit Praia Grande and Praia da Adraga in Colares after Cabo da Roca.

Carcavelos market every Thursday morning - good bargains can often be found - and Cascais market every Wednesday morning. Food and, like Carcavelos there are many good bargains available.

ll	Tips & Getting There

From Lisbon airport: Take the highway (500meters from the airport) “2ª Circular” heading for Cascais/Estoril until you reach the A5 motorway. Once on the A5 to Cascais, keep on it until you see the exit to “Estoril/Sintra” (approx. 15 km). Follow the signs to Sintra. After approx. 9 km you will reach a small aqueduct and a roundabout. At the roundabout follow the sign to “S.Pedro de Sintra” (left behind the gas station and then right). After passing the Village of S.Pedro de Sintra, follow the road downhill for approx 1 km until you see the two towers of the Sintra Palace. Turn left and continue straight through the Villa de Sintra (leaving the Palace to your right) following the signs for “Monserrate”. Take the Monserrate road, leaving the Seteais Hotel on your right as you go up the hill. Continue for about one kilometer on the private road on your left, with the sign “Quinta das Sequoias”. The Manor House is about two kilometers from the turn-off.
