Casa Silva Portugal
Holiday Home Rental Description
Located on the Aroeira Golf Resort, Casa Silva is a spacious five-bedroom villa with plenty of space for up to ten guests. Just 2km from the beach and around 25km from Lisbon itself, the villa is in a great location with views over the golf course, a private pool and a host of resort facilities nearby. Casa Silva provides the ideal home away from home for families, groups of friends or multiple couples looking to switch off and spend some time in the sun with loved ones.
On the ground floor, there is a modern kitchen with a small breakfast table, plenty of prep space and appliances. The spacious living room has a corner sofa and a flat screen TV for guests to get together and relax. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining room, where guests can dine together. Guests will also find a double bedroom on the ground floor, as well as a fully equipped bathroom. Upstairs, there are four further bedrooms, including the master suite and three twin bedrooms. The twin bedrooms share a bathroom, while the master bedroom has its own en suite. Each of the bedrooms offer serenity and comfort, ensuring that guests feel at home during their stay in the villa. The bathrooms are also a good size with a modern finished.
Outside, there is a large garden, a private swimming pool, as well as a lovely outdoor dining area. Around the swimming pool, guests will find no shortage of sun loungers where they can switch off and read a good book. The spacious garden and the swing set will provide lots of fun for the children! The outdoor dining facilities also provide the perfect setting for guests to prepare and enjoy delicious alfresco meals together. With the beach just a short distance away, and an array of restaurants and activities to choose from in Cascais, guests are truly spoilt for choice at Casa Silva.Hugely popular with visitors, Cascais is slightly over half an hour’s drive from Lisbon, just outside the expansive Sintra-Cascais Natural Park which runs down Portugal’s most westerly fringe. Once a small fishing village, it’s now a major resort with the facilities to match, but it hasn’t lost its charm or a sense of its history – you can still see why it was the place to be for the Portuguese nobility of the 1800s.
With none of the hilliness of the capital, a day spent in Cascais is an easy-going affair. One of its key attractions is the opulent Castro Guimares Museum, featuring artefacts of Portuguese history dating back many centuries. The museum sits in the pretty Jardim Marechal Carmona gardens, and its brightly coloured, decorative facade means you are unlikely to miss it.
The golden sands of Praia Grande are less than a ten-minute drive away from Villa Sienna. The water here is shallow, making it especially ideal for children wanting to go for a swim. Due to the strong waves, it’s a favourite spot for surfing, and you can have a go at this and a range of other water sports.
The Praia da Ribiera is just one of many fine beaches in the area, and centrally located. The walk to the impressive Boca do Inferno cliffs is a popular one and scenic too, while the marina area provides another pleasant spot to while away some time with a drink or two.
Around 4km north of Cascais, Estoril is a sophisticated spot famed for both its motorsport racetrack and its centrepiece casino – said to have provided Ian Fleming with the inspiration for a certain James Bond, no less. It lacks the heritage of Cascais, but if you fancy a night at the roulette wheel, or a day at the steering wheel, it’s the place to go.
Sintra, on the other hand, is not lacking in history, and punches above its weight when it comes to intriguing architecture. From the romantic Palacio da Pena with its whimsical details to the arabesque Palacio de Monserrate and gothic Palacio Nacional, it’s worth arranging an organised tour to learn about these sights in more detail. You certainly won’t run out of things to see in a hurry – and if you need a break from it all, the wonderful Guincho beach or landmark Cabo da Roca provide excellent chill-out locations.
