Photos and Description of this Lisbon holiday apartment Escape the exchange rate - priced in £££ pounds - pay in £££ pounds!

This large charming 1st floor apartment is right in the heart of Old Lisbon near the bottom of the hill at the top of which is situated St George's Castle. With 110 sq. metres of indoor space and 3 bedrooms, our apartment compares favourably with competing smaller rental apartments. In addition the apartment itself has a garden at the rear containing orange and lemon trees and a superb view of the city of Lisbon. It is ideal for slow summer lunches or cool evening dinners. It is a 10 min walk to the castle, but only a 3 minute walk down to the Rossio, considered the centre of the Baixa or Downtown Lisbon. Located in Mouraria, the old Moorish quarter of 12th century Lisbon, the area is quiet and has a village feel to it. The underground, Martim Moniz, and the trams (famous 28 tram passes close by) and buses are only 2 minutes from the house in the Largo de Martim Moniz, whilst the mainline station to Sintra is 7 minutes walk. All facilities are within walking distance.

The apartment is in a prime position for you to feel that you really are at the centre of things, and yet it provides a restful haven after a busy day of sight-seeing or shopping. All central Lisbon restaurants are within easy walking distance. The famous restaurant quarter of Bairro Alto is but 12 minutes away, whilst the riverside Vasco da Gama complex or Gulbenkian Museum is a quick and easy tube ride. You can take public transport to the beaches on the Cascais line or over the River Tagus to 20 kilometres of sandy beaches. Sintra and its monuments are also an easy train journey away.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
Martin and Slavka, London : We had such a superb time in Lisbon and absolutely fell in love with your flat. It's such a special place and we felt very much at home. Thanks to you for all the information you provided us, both before our stay and in the flat. It all helped to make our visit smooth and interesting. We have told so many friends about our fantastic experience so I'm sure you'll get more bookings in the future !

From Carole Ruta, Australia : What a wonderful holiday we had. Paula is an absolute delight and keeps the apartment so sparkling clean - a gem. We loved the apartment and made marmalade from a few lemons. The position was just perfect and we walked miles daily so ready for a sit on the terrace with a glass of 'vinho verde'. I would highly recommend the apartment and the location. I'm delighted we found your address on the net and look forward to returning some day in the not too distant future.

very enjoyable week

Review Submitted: October 11, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
The apartment is very big with plenty of room for at least 4 people, its a residential area but not very far from Rossio for a wide choice of restaurants, shops and tourist attractions! Everything is within walking distance but far enough away from the noise of traffic, though the street can be noisy at night sometimes with locals or rubbish collection. I would recommend this apartment for a small group holiday or family, everything was clean and tidy and Paula was always there to help and make sure we were happy.

Review Submitted: September 22, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
A very comfortable and proper apartment with a lot of space and a nice garden. Good customer service; when you arrive you'll find some fruit on the kitchen table and the fridge is filled with a bottle of wine, some cheese etc. Paula, who lives on the ground floor, is waiting for you and is very helpful. She speaks English and if you have some questions, just ask her.
Nice location, quiet but close to Rossio, Alfama, Baixa. Well, in fact close to everything!; Close to the railway station ( go to Estorol to the beach for instance)
Carole, the owner, gives you a lot of information by email. She also is very helpful. Just ask her and you get an answer.
Carole, thanks for everything and when we come back to Lisbon, I know where we'll stay: your apartment!
Yes, we can recommend it to other people.

Unforgettable week in Losboa

Lisboa12 London
Review Submitted: September 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
If you want to sample the real Lisboa with all its charm, then Carol’s apartment is a place to stay at. There is a family, unique touch about it and the location is great – you are just a short walk from all the attractions - the Castle, Alfama, the 28 tram stop…. You do not need a car, unless you are planning to visit places around Lisbon (i.e. Tomar, Fatima, Obidos) as we did; there is an ample, fee parking space in the street. Carole made sure that we felt at home from the very first moment- a bottle of a local wine and some fantastic cheese were in the fridge to greet us on arrival. Most importantly however, Paula (next door neighbour and fluent English speaker) was always around in case we had any questions or needed help.
Carole, thank you very much for a fantastic week! – We would recommend your place without a moment of hesitation.

Most satisfying

Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Just back home from one week in Lisboa. All five of us agreed this was at least as expected. The spacious apt. was perfect esp. with regards to our (varying) diurnal rhytm - and consequently the late, long outdoor brunches. Also honours to P&P for their services.
