Located between Mafra and Lisbon, Aldeia da Mata Pequena is a small rural village that was completely restored and transports visitors into the past in an untouched green landscape.
The 13 whitewashed houses outlined with blue and yellow have its own living room, kitchen, bathroom and backyard. They are equipped with cable TV, heating, sofas and wardrobes. Houses can accommodate 2 to 6 persons.
Guests are invited to explore the gastronomy of the region but alternatively they can prepare their own meals at the rustic fully equipped kitchen available in each house. Barbecue facilities are available, and the property leaves a breakfast basket with fresh bread each morning in the kitchen.
Aldeia da Mata Pequena is the perfect place to relax and get in contact with nature by engaging in outdoor activities like cycling or hiking. Follow the suggested routes of the protected area of Penedo do Lexim in jeep tours or donkey riding. Horse riding is available in Mafra, 9 km away.
The historical city of Sintra is 20 km away and Mafra with its National Palace is a 15-minute drive away. The beaches of Ericeira and its renowned surfing spots are 20 km away and Lisbon International Airport is 40 km away.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.7 for a two-person trip.
