Nice stay
Good clean property, nice owners. One advantage is that the owners are on property so there is no issue with late arrival. Would stay again if in the area.
The only suggestion I'd have is to give better instructions on driving to the property, google takes you to a slightly off location.

Beautiful site but way overpriced. Rooms were very damp and smelled like it. We found a 4 stars suite in Figuera da Foz a few days later for less money. At least the owner was willing to give us a discount.

We had a wonderful time at this property. The new owner made us feel very welcome. The added touches in the room were very appreciated, lovely fruit a complimentary bottle of fabulous wine and beer and drinks in the fridge. The cold buffet breakfast was delicious. On our last day we left our bags and went to the beach. They graciously kept our bags and when we returned they let us use the small communal kitchen for our picnic and the communal shower to rinse off all of the sand. It really let us extend our time in the region. Two nearby restaurants were also delicious and within walking distance.

I had made the reservation for a different date by mistake. Quinta honored my reservation despite the fact that the owners had shut it down for a few days. There was no one in the property and the told me how to get in. Incredible trust from their part.

Rustic Charm Perfected!
Our stay at Quinta do Scoto was absolutely perfect. I only wish I had booked more time there. The property was so charming- from our beautifully renovated (former barn) suite- to the fields with 2 gorgeous and friendly horses, we couldn’t ask for more. Our suite was so spacious and beautifully decorated. Our hosts- Penny and Tony - made us feel very welcome. The home was convenient to historic Sintra, yet in a non- tourist area- away from the crowds. We can’t wait to return!

One of the GREAT B & B's.....beautiful grounds and huge rooms.....lovingly restored from the original house and barns with antiques and great modern amenities! Fabulous bedding and wonderful breakfasts! The owners, Penny and Tony are delightful, charming and very, very helpful. It is well situated and close to all the "must-see's" of Sintra. Our highest recommendation!

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would!! Warm greeting (including a glass of wine while I filled out paperwork), tour of the property and my room... FANTASTIC room!! Tons of space, HUGE bathroom with a fabulous soaking tub. Very convenient to all tourist places, but with a quiet you can't get in any bigger town or city! I will definitely return here on my next trip to Portugal!

Quite old villa
The place is rather old and needs renovation in my opinion. The owners were very friendly and were generous with us leaving all what we needed in the fridge. Breakfast was good but no hot food options. Very quite location and relaxing. This hotel is closer to Sintra than to Lisbon. You need a car to get there. Not far from the train station where there is free parking and you can take the train from there to either Lisbon or Sintra.

Wonderful Bed and Breakfast
Beautiful restored bed and breakfast. Rooms were large and well equipped. The heated floors were fantastic as it was cold and damp outside. Tony and Penny were excellent hosts and breakfast was very good.
The antique furnishings in the dining room were amazing!

Great Hosts, Wonderful Property
Can’t say enough about Tony and Penny and the wonderful environment they have created in this unique B & B. The rooms were the largest we’ve ever had at a B & B and attention to the smallest details are obvious everywhere you turn. Due to local restrictions, they cannot serve a hot breakfast, but the continental breakfast was outstanding and we felt spoiled. If staying in the Sintra area, don’t hesitate to book this gem!
