Colares is nestled within the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, an area celebrated for its breathtaking landscapes, world-class mountain bike trails and hiking paths, lush forests, rolling hills, and dramatic coastal cliffs.

Just a short drive away, you’ll find Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe, where stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean await. Additionally, the stunning Praia do Guincho is a 15-minute drive, while the vibrant downtown Cascais is only 22 minutes away by car.

Colares is also renowned for its distinctive wines, particularly the Ramisco and Malvasia varieties. The region's unique sandy soils and close proximity to the ocean create a terroir that yields wines with exceptional character.

The property is conveniently located near Sintra’s beautiful palaces, including the Park and Palace of Monserrate, just a 17-minute drive away. This 19th-century gem, with its Moorish, Gothic, and Indian influences, once served as a hub for WWII spies.

Nearby, the UNESCO-listed Quinta da Regaleira in Sintra is a must-visit. This enchanting palace and its mystical gardens offer a captivating journey through the region’s rich history and architecture.

The area is a haven for lovers of traditional Portuguese cuisine, featuring fresh seafood, locally produced wines, and the famous pastries of nearby Sintra, such as queijadas and travesseiros.

For dining options closer to home, the popular restaurants of Azoia, including 3 Gomes, Refúgio da Roca, and the spectacular Moinho Dom Quixote, are just an 8-10 minute walk or a 5-minute drive away.

The property is easily accessible by car.

Humberto Delgado Airport is a 42-minute drive from the property.

Fabulous Stay
Everything about our stay in Casa dos Cedros was outstanding. A beautiful home with gorgeous views and gathering spaces. It was the perfect launchpad for our excursions to Sintra and hikes along the coastline and deep woods.
