THE REGION
A coastal town just 20 miles west of Lisbon, Cascais was once a small fishing village, but its idyllic scenery attracted the attention of artists, writers and expelled European nobility in the 20th century. Today, it still attracts high society, but all society comes into force to enjoy the gorgeous beaches and adventure options like sailing and surfing.
Cascais also sits just west of Lisbon and right on the edge of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, meaning there are ample opportunities for exciting day trips. When you’re not off an excursion up the coast, you’ll find Cascais has plenty of its own allures. Take your pick of gorgeous sandy coves, wander around culture-packed art centres, book a surfing lesson or sit down to dine on some of the best food in the region.
ABOUT THE LISBON COAST
The Lisbon Coast is a sensational stretch of golden beaches, wave-lashed cliffs and vibrant seaside towns – but there's more to the Atlantic coastline than that. Delve beneath the surface to discover hidden coves, family-owned seafood restaurants and pristine natural parks.
The coast around Lisbon provides an easy, breezy escape from the capital, whose proximity has made it the stomping ground of kings for the last 1,000 years. In summer, Lisboistas stream into elegant Comporta and Cascais to escape the heat of the city; year-round, surfers hang loose on the coast, waiting for the rollers to crash down on the sand.
But while you're enjoying one of our fantastic villas in Lisbon Coast, you may well want to take some time out from all that sun worship to explore everything else the region has to offer – so we've put together this handy travel guide to give you a little help and inspiration!

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesAlcabideche is also a great place to visit if you are travelling with children, as it is packed to the brim with family-friendly attractions. The Sintra-Cascais Natural Park is a truly immense landmark and should not be missed if you are a lover of both history and nature. Named as just one of many National Parks found within Portugal, this attraction is teeming with rich fauna and horticulture that help to further exemplify the tremendous biodiversity of the entire region. This park also leads to the prolific Castle of the Moors, an incredible monument that was once used as a safe haven for the Moorish people as they tried to escape the troubling events of the Christian Reconquest. The Sintra-Cascais Natural Park is just 5 minutes away from Cascais Hideaway.
The Church of Alcabideche is a delightfully significant religious monument that has been celebrated for generations. Its humble exterior presents a collection of white-washed walls, helping to balance out the bright blue sky that sits above. However, as you travel inside, you will be inundated with ornate artefacts and regal gold fixtures. In turn, this is an integral landmark to visit if you wish to delve deeper into Alcabideche’s Catholic roots. Once you have explored this monument in-depth, be sure to take a short walk into the local town and meander through the wide variety of artisan shops and bustling boutiques on offer. The Church of Alcabideche is located just under 15 minutes away from the villa.
Anima Park is an indoor soft-play centre like none other and is situated around 15 minutes away. Children will love exploring the wide selection of colourful climbing frames and immersing themselves in the adorable jungle motifs. This vivacious centre also uses a range of expertly trained staff to ensure that the children’s safety and well-being are the number one priority. Thus, you do not need to worry about your children as they play and explore at their own pace. As a result, the grown-ups can enjoy a variety of delicious beverages in the glamorous upstairs coffee bar as the children let their imaginations run wild.
