Malveira da Serra is a small, picturesque village situated in the foothills of Sintra and overlooking
Cascais and the Atlantic Ocean. The centre of the village (a two-minute
walk from the holiday villa) sports a series of shops including butcher, baker, newsagent, supermarket, chemist, hairdresser,
laundry, cafés and restaurants, among others. There is also a clinic with English-speaking doctors for your holiday medical
needs. All within a five-minute walk from the apartment.
A regular bus service runs through the village to Cascais (7km), Sintra (11km), and Cabo da Roca
(8km), the most westernly and possibly most spectacular point of continental Europe — be the last person in Europe to
see the sun go down! The closest beach to the village (3km) is called "Guincho" and is the largest and most beautiful beach
in the Cascais area.
