Villa Monte e Mar <br /><br />Morada do Sol is a large, enclosed property to let on a short term basis, in a rural setting near Cascais, at the foot of the Sintra hills, 3 km from Guincho beach.

The extensive and well-kept gardens with their grand pine tree drive and many areas and spaces of different character have wonderful displays of colour for most of the year and the mature palm trees provide delightful summer shade. Help yourself to fresh tomatoes, lettuces, apples, pears, lemons, oranges, figs and pomegranates from the orchard and vegetable garden, all biologically produced.
