Maria was absolutely lovely during our stay. Knowledgeable about the area and fresh breakfast every morning. The kids loved the place, especially the dogs, cats and horses. Pool was exquisite and there are nearby markets and restaurants for your needs.
this stay was magical, located in a smaller town near Sintra, Maria makes you feel so welcomed and comfortable. The rooms are spacious, clean and out of a fairytale. The surrounding nature is beautiful and you can still enjoy an evening in Lisbon with just a 30 minute drive!

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!!
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
Favorite hotel on our trip! A fantastic place to escape. Probably would have stayed our whole time there in retrospect! Short drive from airport. Our room was beautiful in old unique building but clean and spacious for all 5 of us. The kids loved the animals, games, and yard to run around in. The pool was refreshing and lovely. Easy to drive to beaches and Sintras after starting the day off with a delicious breakfast! The host was so welcoming and travel instructions were so helpful. Thank you for the wonderful stay! Five stars!
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
Unique building, quiet area( except for local dogs barking) good parking. Wonderful outdoor space. The hosts lives there, has dogs. They are well behaved (they weren't barking) horses too! Playground, trampoline, soccer net. Beautiful little garden with a chess set. A kitchen available.
The breakfast was exceptional, she put actual love into the food.
Maria was amazing and her place is the perfect little oasis from which to anchor your Lisbon experiences. Would definitely stay again when we come back to Portugal
Sehr nette und angenehme Betreuung, familiäre Atmosphäre, grosszügige und saubere Zimmer, grosses Areal mit Aussenpool (war zu unserer Jahreszeit noch nicht benutzbar) und Spielmöglichkeiten für Kinder. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
o cheiro era terrible. O preço é muito alto para a qualidade.

No volvería
Si no tienes coche es una mala opción. Es lindo el hotel. No para 4 estrellas. No tiene aire acondicionado. No vaciaron los basureros, dejaron el agua de la tina, dejaron los vasos que usamos en donde los dejamos.
L’endroit est parfait pour une petite famille qui désire s’installer quelques jours et qui voyage en auto. La piscine, la cuisine et la belle grandeur de la chambre sont des plus. Nous étions en train et en taxi, le soir venu, les options étaient limitées pour nous. Nous sommes restés une seule nuit, nous n’avons pas pu profiter des installations. Mais Alexandra nous a bien aidé, nous avons bien apprécié
Fantastique séjour. L’établissement est très propre et notre chambre était plus grand que j’imaginais. Vraiment une style authentique et charmante. Super accueil et bon petit-déjeuner tous les matins. Piscine très joli et facile à accéder. Parfait pour être au calme après des journées bien chargés à faire le tour à Lisbonne et Sintra.
