Sé Scenes

A famous Lisbon landmark is your neighbour at this apartment. Just across the street is Sé de Lisboa – so close you can spot the Gothic bell towers from the living room. Also in the distance is the River Tagus, so if views are what you're after, this certainly delivers. Panoramas aside, the design is cosy yet contemporary. Portuguese touches are everywhere you look – think wooden accents and shuttered windows, all wrapped up in a palette of natural hues. And, of course, the location speaks for itself. São Jorge Castle, Praça do Comércio, buzzing Bairro Alto, and plenty of eateries are all within walking distance.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a baby cot upon request.
*The third bedroom has a single bed with a pull-out trundle. We think it's best for children.
*You won't need a car in this location. Instead of driving, explore on foot – many landmarks are within walking distance.
