Nestling in a majestic place, Casa Corranda offers you a peaceful and private setting in the heart of Portugal's enchanting Sintra region.
The recently refurbished manor house, 30 minutes from Lisbon Airport, is situated in one of Portugal's most treasured areas, with magnificent views of the surrounding mountains, the village, and the distant coastline. The picturesque old town of Sintra, with its 18th century pastel-hued palatial facades, is only five minutes distant, and within another 15 minutes you enter the colorful, bustling seaside towns of Estoril and Cascais, with their lovely vistas and beaches.
The Casa’s two houses are individually and tastefully furnished in period antiques. The sitting room and the traditional dining room give Casa Corranda a warmth and home-like atmosphere that is rare among luxury guest houses of its type. The terraced gardens are perfect for a quiet and relaxing visit. Hiking in the neighboring hills and sightseeing make your stay at the Casa Corranda a memorable one.
