Located in the heart of Quinta da Marinha golf club, discreetly hidden amongst ancient umbrella pines you will find Villa Duna, an elegant modern property with the perfect balance between the traditional and the modern, the red pan tiles of the roof, whitewashed walls and immaculate garden, all so traditional, yet so modern and luxurious. With a fabulous private pool and four sumptuous bedrooms this spectacular property offers accommodation for up to eight guests, whether it be a for family holiday or the golfing holiday of a lifetime. The Oitavos Dunes course and a magnificent sports club are within walking distance or its not at all far to the magnificent beaches of Praia de Guincho or the centre of Cascais should some of your party not be golfers.
From the entrance hall your eyes are immediately drawn to the stunning lounge, its large windows opening onto the garden and enjoying the dappled shade from the trees ensuring it doesn’t get too hot. The large designer sofas, exquisite lighting and spectacular three way log burner make for a room in which you can very easily relax after enjoying dinner. The gorgeous kitchen with consul breakfast bar would be a pleasure to cook in, so much light and space and everything you could need at your fingertips. The adjoining dining room overlooks the golf course with enough screening from the cleverly planted bamboo and grasses to ensure your privacy. The dining room and lounge open onto the fully furnished terrace looking onto the garden and swimming pool.
Three of the four bedrooms are on the ground floor all simply but lavishly furnished, these spacious rooms each has its own private bathroom and a terrace from which you can enjoy an early morning coffee or an aperitif before dinner. The first floor accommodates the stunning master suite with king size bed, shower room and bay window opening onto a furnished private terrace which overlooks the golf course.
The garden area is so beautifully maintained, the mature trees which must have been there long before the golf course was thought of offer dappled shade for the garden whether you are in the pool or simply relaxing on the loungers, there is also a private driveway with parking for several cars
Choosing this amazing villa situated in the heart of Quinta da Marinha golf club suggests golf is a major part of your holiday, this fabulous course designed by the legendry Robert Trent Jones offers fantastic views over the Atlantic Ocean and the Sintra mountains. His trademark elevated greens and tees, many bunkers and water hazards suit the natural landscape perfectly. The 19th hole is the perfect way to finish off your round, the clubhouse overlooking the big lakes of the final hole. The superb Oitavos Dunes course is also a must, a stunning links course built into the natural surroundings with the utmost sensitivity is ranked amongst the very best in the world. The choice of courses in this region is such that you could play a different course every day of your stay.
On a day off from golf or for non golfing partners the magnificent sports centre offers an amazing swimming pool, tennis court or you could try Padel (it’s a bit like tennis) which is very popular here.
The Cascais area is a wonderful place to choose for a much needed break, you have the sand dunes and white sands of the surfers paradise that is Guincho Beach, perhaps the beach at Cresmina below the 17th century fortress would be more suitable for families as the waves aren’t quite so strong. The charming fairy tale village of Sintra with its extravagant palaces and ancient castles perched high on the hills within the Sintra-Cascais National Park. The Cascais of today is a fusion of its noble past and the success of its tourist and golfing attractions. Once upon a time it was small fishing town, then it became the holiday destination for the royal family and subsequently the rich and famous. It still retains a lot of its old fishing village charms despite its 15th century fort having been converted into a hotel. Enjoy the small, cobbled streets, beautiful buildings with pastel coloured walls and some of the country’s famous azuljos.
The beaches around Cascais are beautiful and varied, like golf courses you could visit a different one each day. A walk or cycle along the promenade from Cascais to Estoril, is amazing, the beach here doesn’t catch the wind quite so much so is perfect for a sunbathing swimming day and the options to stop at a café are many. Two of the biggest attractions of Estoril after the beach, is the motor racing track which sadly is no longer part of the F1 circuit but still hosts events and the amazing sea front Casino, amazing to look at even if you don’t want to play at the tables. Eating out here in Cascais is delightful, the many cafes and restaurants catering for all tastes and appetites buzz in the evenings as visitors and locals alike relax at the end of the day.
