So, this home has the best of both worlds with its location. It's situated in the picturesque town of Cascais with its charming streets and beaches, yet it's just a short stroll to the train station which connects to Lisbon. There's plenty of room for entertaining in the apartment, and there's a desk in one of the bedrooms if you need to catch up on work emails. If you want to accommodate six guests, though, two will be sleeping on a sofa in the open-plan living room.

Home truths:
*There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
*Guests five and six would be on a sofa bed in the living room – if you're looking for a home with ample space for socialising, we'd recommend this home for four guests only.
*At full capacity, there's only one bathroom for six guests.
*Given the home's central spot near bars and restaurants, expect to hear some street noise during your stay.
