Ricardo Forte
La Galette - Sintra´s Windmill is a family house. Bought at 50 years ago, is currently a guest house and a piece of history in Sintra. Located in a very peacefull village, 8 km away from the crowded Sintra historic center, this windmill is a perfect place to enjoy the nature and the peaceful life of a small village. With one of the most beautifull beaches in Portugal & Sintra center located in a short distance, this house will be a perfect place to enjoy a pleasant stay.
Currently working in the accommodation sector, I try to give the best experience possible to every guest that want to discover Portuguese heritage.
Gouveia & Fontanelas are two of the most traditional villages in SIntra. Between Sintra historical center and the beach, these two villages are famous for the amazing views, friendly population and peaceful area.
