Welcome to Quinta da Bufala, a green gateway to a sustainable lifestyle, nestled within the lush landscapes of Sintra.
“The village of Cintra is perhaps in every respect the most delightful in Europe, it contains beauties of every description natural & artificial, Palaces and gardens rising in the midst of rocks, cataracts, and precipices, {convents} on stupendous heights a distant view of the sea and the Tagus… It unites in itself all the wildness of the Western Highlands with the verdure of the South of France.“
Lord Byron
