DIRECTIONS FROM LISBON AIRPORT

NOTE: You will come across some road tolls. You must stop at them all! Do not go through the green lane as this is for cars that have pre-paid. When you get to the first one just touch the silver button and a card will come out. Keep that card until you get to the next one where you will need to stop again and pay the attendant. You will need just approximately 8 Euros to get to Nazaré.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Barbeque

It is requested that guests tidy up after they've made use of the equipment.

Bins and Recylcing

We respectfully ask that you keep the villa free from excess refuse. Please dispose of your refuse on a regular basis so that it does not attract insects. In Portugal, there are large bins on the street for disposal of general household waste. For recycling, the yellow containers that you see on the streets are for plastic and metal, the blue containers are for paper and cardboard andthe green containers are for glass. Waste can be disposed of in the large green bins located outside the property, on the side of the main road

Breakages

We understand if everyday items such as glasses, plates etc., may get accidentally broken. Please leave a note detailing any broken items so that they can be replaced for the next guest.

Cooker

If the hob doesn't work it is most likely because you need to turn a tap on the wall to release the gas. There is a safety mechanism on the gas boiler so that if there is not enough oxygen in the room it will not start so if this happens you may need to open some windows.

Door & Locks

Never leave a key in the lock on the inside of the door; If a key is left in the lock on the inside of the front door, the other key will not be able to unlock the door from the outside of the door.

When going out for long periods of time, please make sure you secure the villa by locking doors and windows.

When using the balconies please be careful not to shut the sliding door behind you completely or it may lock you out if the catch is on. Similarly, be careful to ensure all sliding doors are locked before leaving the property.

Drains

To ensure that the drains do not become blocked, please dispose of nappies, sanitary towels and cleaning wipes with the general household waste.

Parking

Free parking inside the property perimeter.

Shutters

There are shutters on all windows. We recommend you leave these shut in the day if you are out so the property remains secure and cool.
