The Lighthouse Cottage, sea views, Nr. Azoia, Sintra Hills, Lisbon Coast

The most secluded and serene Cottage at the most Western Point of Europe. 'Abelhas' is situated in 5000sq meters of its own land, 1,5km from the village of Azoa (with its many restaurants and bars) and 400m from the Cabo da Roca Lighthouse (Continental Europe's most Occidental Point). Azoia is still an unspoiled village, sitting in the foothills of the Serra de Sintra. It offers a rare chance to sample Portuguese village life, well off the normal Tourist track but with unrivalled opportunities for walking, climbing, exploring places, churches and castles very close to the beautiful Surfing Beaches along our Coast.
