A little slice of paradise! The old converted farmhouse is beautiful and charming. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and the room huge by any standard especially for Europe. Beautiful pool and fruit and flower trees everywhere! Two very sweet but large dogs, so keep that in mind if tou are afraid of dogs. My eight-year-old and four-year-old loved them.
You need a car here as everything is a 5 minute drive away including the train.
The host was for than helpful and accommodating, helping you plan your visit, providing train tickets etc. We loved our stay here and plan on being back.
We loved our stay at Quinta do Scoto! What a beautiful property complete with two lovely horses and two adorable and friendly dogs! Maria was so welcoming and accommodating. A perfect little oasis just outside of the city.
We enjoyed our stay very much; our room was one of the largest we've ever stayed in, very clean and with such comfortable beds, the property is also on lovely grounds. The children enjoyed playing in the salt water pool situated right outside our room, and our wonderful host Maria even dug out some floaties for them to use in there.
Maria goes out of her way to make you feel at home, assisting with travel (taxi/ train) and restaurant information, and is always on hand to help with anything else you need during your stay. We will definitely stay again.
We Love our host,Maria is very hospitable and welcoming us.We stay in the converted barn room which is very spacious and quiet. We wished we stayed there longer!

I loved everything ~ Maria is a wonderful hostess, the room and grounds are beautiful a no d the breakfast was delicious ~ I highly recommend and will definitely be back!!
Good clean property, nice owners. One advantage is that the owners are on property so there is no issue with late arrival. Would stay again if in the area.
The only suggestion I'd have is to give better instructions on driving to the property, google takes you to a slightly off location.
Very nice place super friendly owner. We used as a hotel " a place to sleep" . But would be a nice place just to enjoy the pool and barbecue, shared kitchen and relax
Beautiful site but way overpriced. Rooms were very damp and smelled like it. We found a 4 stars suite in Figuera da Foz a few days later for less money. At least the owner was willing to give us a discount.
We had a wonderful time at this property. The new owner made us feel very welcome. The added touches in the room were very appreciated, lovely fruit a complimentary bottle of fabulous wine and beer and drinks in the fridge. The cold buffet breakfast was delicious. On our last day we left our bags and went to the beach. They graciously kept our bags and when we returned they let us use the small communal kitchen for our picnic and the communal shower to rinse off all of the sand. It really let us extend our time in the region. Two nearby restaurants were also delicious and within walking distance.
The owners were very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. It was a lovely place to relax within easy reach of Lisbon and Sintra by car.
Very friendly and helpful welcome. Tony and Penny were happy to do anything to help. The room was spacious, clean and well appointed, and the Quinta is in an ideal spot for exploring.
I had made the reservation for a different date by mistake. Quinta honored my reservation despite the fact that the owners had shut it down for a few days. There was no one in the property and the told me how to get in. Incredible trust from their part.

Loved the beautiful manor- beds and pillows sooo comfortable. Great area to use as vase to your the many sites that are around that area. The hosts we so friendly and helpful- they made it a spectacular trip.
Our stay at Quinta do Scoto was absolutely perfect. I only wish I had booked more time there. The property was so charming- from our beautifully renovated (former barn) suite- to the fields with 2 gorgeous and friendly horses, we couldn’t ask for more. Our suite was so spacious and beautifully decorated. Our hosts- Penny and Tony - made us feel very welcome. The home was convenient to historic Sintra, yet in a non- tourist area- away from the crowds. We can’t wait to return!
One of the GREAT B & B's.....beautiful grounds and huge rooms.....lovingly restored from the original house and barns with antiques and great modern amenities! Fabulous bedding and wonderful breakfasts! The owners, Penny and Tony are delightful, charming and very, very helpful. It is well situated and close to all the "must-see's" of Sintra. Our highest recommendation!
If I could give this place 10 stars, I would!! Warm greeting (including a glass of wine while I filled out paperwork), tour of the property and my room... FANTASTIC room!! Tons of space, HUGE bathroom with a fabulous soaking tub. Very convenient to all tourist places, but with a quiet you can't get in any bigger town or city! I will definitely return here on my next trip to Portugal!
