This is probably the least visited of all the Palaces and manor houses in Sintra, however it's probably the most beautiful of them all! Also, it is the only Palace which has never been directly linked to the Portuguese Royal Family but to some nobles from the United Kingdom.
Sofia will also bring some homemade snack along for you to try during your tour, there will also be a chance to stop at a small shop if you get a bit peckish!
This is the plan:
