Those interested in Portugal property should look to the coast around Estoril, near Lisbon, it has been suggested.

Announcing a series of new developments in Guincho, the Move Channel has said the new developments lie in a popular resort area easily reached by bus or train from Lisbon.

Managing director of the firm Dan Johnson said of Guincho: "Known as one of Portugal’s finest sand strips, Guincho beach is situated near the picturesque town of Cascais and is a windsurfer’s paradise."

The firm states that the Portugal property scene is one that many UK investors may not have paid much attention to in the past, but has plenty to offer.

UK Investors Lisa Colrain and Neil Buchan made sure they got their hands on a villa in Portugal by teaming up with friends to find the £1 million required to purchase a villa for buy-to-let in Casa Ferrel, the Sunday Mail reported earlier this month.
