​
Local vibe: Sintra 45 is set around Praça Dom Fernando II, a traditional village square where daily life feels authentically Sintra (small cafés, local shops, and a neighborly pace). On the first Sunday of each month, the square hosts an antiques fair, adding a fun “local event” atmosphere (and a bit more movement in the area).
​
Landmarks nearby: From São Pedro you’re well-positioned to explore Sintra’s headline monuments using the 434 tourist circuit (the “Pena” route), which connects key stops like Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle. The historic center (Sintra Vila) is also within an easy walk for most guests, with the charming streets and classic viewpoints that make Sintra feel like a fairytale town.
​

Food and essentials: One of the perks of staying in São Pedro is having dining options and basics close by without needing to head into the busiest parts of town. Guests often enjoy being able to step out for a relaxed meal nearby (including well-known local spots in São Pedro) and then return to a quieter area at night

Parking (A Rare Find in Sintra!)
One of the biggest advantages of staying at Sintra 45 is the parking situation. You can usually park for free directly in the square in front of the apartment (Praça Dom Fernando II).

Important Note: The square is closed to parking on the first Sunday of every month for the local antiques fair and during the popular São Pedro Festival (late June). During these times, free street parking is available in the surrounding residential streets.
​
-Public Transport
To the Palaces: You are perfectly positioned to visit the monuments. The famous 434 Tourist Bus (Pena Circuit) stops right here in São Pedro. You can hop on this bus to go directly to the Pena Palace and Moorish Castle, or take it down into the historic center.

To Lisbon: The Sintra Train Station is approximately a 15–20 minute walk (1.4 km) from the apartment. From there, trains run frequently to Lisbon’s Rossio Station (40 min trip). If you prefer not to walk, a quick Uber/Bolt or a local bus will get you to the station in minutes.
​
-Walkability
Historic Center: A scenic 15-20 minute walk will take you to the heart of Sintra (Sintra Vila), where you can visit the National Palace and explore the winding streets. The walk is beautiful, though we recommend comfortable shoes for the Portuguese cobblestones.

Local Neighborhood: São Pedro is a charming village within Sintra. You don’t need to go far for excellent food—traditional favorites like Taverna dos Trovadores and local markets are just steps from your door.
​
Local Tip: Use Uber or Bolt for quick trips between the apartment and the train station, especially if you are carrying luggage. It is reliable, affordable (usually €4-€6), and saves you the walk uphill.

Parking:Outside festival dates, guests can usually park in Praça D. Fernando II for 1–2 cars without special permits. On the first Sunday of each month, parking in the square is limited due to the local fair; plan to use surrounding streets or designated car parks on that morning.

Location: Exceptionally well located: a quiet residential spot steps from key sights in Sintra, about 10 minutes to Cascais and 20 minutes to Lisbon by car, with convenient public transport options nearby.

Festival notice: From June 19–29, the São Pedro Festival takes place in Praça D. Fernando II (in front of the apartment). Expect elevated noise from concerts and fair activity, especially on weekend evenings. Parking is restricted in the square during these dates; use nearby streets or public car parks instead.
