What to visit in Torres Vedras and surroundings

Casalinhos de Alfaiata is in the centre of the West Coast: beaches, surf, the most Portuguese Carnival in Portugal and a municipality with history and good food. And less than an hour by car away are Ericeira, Óbidos, Sintra, Cascais, Estoril, Lisbon and Nazaré. Dii Beach House is the base for exploring all this and returning to the heated pool at the end of the day.

Golf

The West region has several golf courses a short distance from the house, with routes through hills, dunes and pine forests.
