10 minutes from the historic center of Sintra and a few hundred meters from the Moorish Castle, the Miradouro de Santa Eufémia and the Palácio da Pena, on a vast plot of 8,260m2 with gardens, lakes and lush vegetation in the National Park Sintra-Cascais.
The main building, a Palacete with the date 1810 inscribed on the majestic entrance, features tiles from the time, along with intricate details in stone, which punctuate its secular facade, full of history surrounded by the buconic landscape of the natural park of Sintra, classified by Unesco in 1955 as a World Heritage Site.

The building complex, totalling around 1,100 sqm, also has a pavilion, a small chapel, a garage and a secondary house (in ruins) outside the complex, with a private patio, and a water reservoir with a capacity of 763 sqm , all for full renovation.
The beauty and mystery of Sintra triggered, especially at the end of the century. Xviii, a search by foreigners in order to settle in this area, mostly by the English.

Afonso Henriques, strategically and in order to defend the territory, the management of the village of Sintra and its term was donated to Gualdim Pais, master of the Order of the Temple, receiving a charter in 1154.
With the settlement of Christian populations, the old Islamic Quarter gave way to a medieval village that lasted until the 16th century. Xv. In this Medieval village is integrated the Church of São Pedro de Canaferrim, built between the two belts of walls.
We cannot fail to mention the icon Palácio da Pena, whose construction dates back to the 12th century, when there was a chapel dedicated to Nossa Senhora da Pena where, in this same location, King Manuel I had a monastery built, the Real Mosteiro de Nossa Senhora da Pena. Senhora da Pena, later handed over to the Order of São Jerónimo.
In 1850, after the religious orders were extinguished, D. Fernando Ii acquired the Convent of São Jerónimo and transformed it into the romantic Pena Palace, which encompassed a vast park of exotic trees. With the implementation of the republic in 1910, it was classified as a National Monument.
