What else ...

In the neighbourhood you have a horse riding school, tennis lessons, dance lessons, you can just go to one of the cafés to hang out with local youngsters and/or watch football matches, you can go to Guincho Beach by foot/bike, you can go with a house bike to the mountains on the back or to the town center, for more beaches, bars, etc. You have a bowling place you can go by foot, or you just can hang on the garden swing or a sun bed outside to take some sun and rest. Lisbon is less than 30 km away, and Sintra around 10 km, so you can also visit these places
