About Casa da Guia
A Casa da Guia, ninguém a queria, considerada muito longe de Cascais. Uma das cozinheiras uma vez insurgiu-se com a exclamação de que aquele ermo era muito longe de Cascais e que não ganhava para as solas. A herdade acabou por ficar na posse de uma das suas filhas, D. Mª Teresa, aquando do nascimento do seu 9º filho em Sintra. Por essa altura fizeram-se grande obras na casa, embelezando-a com azulejos e uma grande plantação de cedros e pinheiros; por ano eram plantadas centenas mas apenas vingaram 5.
Não existia casa mais divertida. À luz das velas e petróleo, a família com 10 criados e 4 mestres de 4 nacionalidades diferentes. Durante a I Grande Guerra, entre 1914 e 1918, nunca houve discussões. Ficavam com frequênciam também na Casa, os primos direitos – os Lavradio e Rio Maior – num tempo em que não havia frigorífico nem máquinas. Ninguém faltava à missa nem ao terço diário.
Sobre os azulejos. Os azulejos da escada, do alpendre e da estrada eram da Capela da R. S. Bento, do Palácio da Flor da Murta. O Conde das Alcácoças, marido de D. Mª Teresa, comprou-os com licença de Sua Excelência o Cardeal Patriarca Mendes Belo. Os azulejos do frontal da janela da casa de jantar e os restantes das duas salas, haviam sido adquiridos, no Alentejo, pela Viúva de Portugal, e o Conde comprou-lhos sem antes os ver.
A última Dona da Casa da Guia. D. Mª Teresa de Saldanha Oliveira e Sousa (Rio Maior), Condessa das Alcáçovas, foi a última dona, neta do fundador, tendo morrido em 1973. Gozou dela 78 anos, todos os Verões, com os seus 14 filhos.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's not actually a shopping mall... Its more of a sort of paradise by the ocean cliffs with a few small fashion stores with beach and sports brands. The best, however, are two things: the terraces of the bars by the sea cliffs and wooden walkabouts available throughout the entire extension of the space free of any charge. A piece of advice, though: you should grab a bike to go there as the car park has pornographic prices:we paid 50 cents for 30 mins, which may not be much in the centre of London but it's a lot when you consider that this is located in the middle of nowhere.. 100% worth a visit, though.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Calm and seaside venue with some diversity for a late walk, café or dinner. doubles as a shopping plaza during the day. it's right next to the Guia lighthouse and well placed near guincho and with a great view towards cascais, on the shore.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's a kind of hip and trendy bar/shopping area, built in and around an old historic house. Grab a drink while listening to the waves. A great place for kids. Bring your dog too! Try to park within the complex if possible.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is incredible! The Casa da Guia is located in an amazing spot in Cascais, close to Guincho Beach (one of the best in Portugal), on the verge of a cliff beside the sea - it's breathtaking. Among all the great restaurants you will find here my favorite is the smallest one, located in the balcony right on the building's entrance. Try an ice cold beer on tap with some cod with Portuguese toasts and salad or crepes while you enjoy the best view of the sea.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very cute place, with different spots to hang out. Only didn’t get a five star review because there’s only so much to do, but given the space they had, it’s pretty well filled. Very nice, would recommend
