πŸ“ Aldeia da Pinheira, Sintra (outside Lisbon)

Book your cuddle session. Pay in carrots.

A tiny, homemade petting zoo with 5 goats, 2 dogs and 3 cats of questionable temperament.
No money at the gate β€” just bring snacks.

Takes ~60 seconds. Daylight hours only β€” the goats need their beauty sleep.

Word from the snack bringers

Real-ish reviews from very real visitors. The goats vet each one.

β€œLillia inspected every single carrot in our bag before accepting payment. Very thorough, very professional. My kids haven't stopped talking about her since.”
Marta S.Booked from Instagram in 2 minutes flat

πŸ₯•πŸ₯•πŸ₯•πŸ₯•πŸ₯•

β€œBooked from their bio link while waiting for my coffee β€” three taps, no message ping-pong. Naafiri hugged my husband and he briefly saw his life flash before his eyes. 10/10.”
The Ferreira familySurvived the 20 kg hug (brought nuggets)

β€œThe ticket told us exactly which snacks to bring, so nobody panicked at the gate. We came for the goats and stayed for the cats β€” from a respectful, injury-free distance.”

Good to know

Where do I park?+

The last stretch is a dirt road β€” park along the fence by the gate. Drive slowly; goats have no road sense.

What shoes should we wear?+

Closed shoes you don't mind getting muddy. Boots or old sneakers are perfect β€” skip the white trainers.

Can we bring a stroller?+

Yes, but the paths are grass and gravel. Chunky-wheeled strollers do fine; a baby carrier is even easier.

What if it rains?+

The goats hate rain and hide. If rain is forecast we'll message you a 1-tap reschedule link, and your deposit carries over.

Ok, I want goat cuddles 🐐
