We were given a very warm welcome and were met at Vryses town. As we arrived at night - our flight was one hour late - this was great as we would have had great difficulty finding the house in the dark. However Alexis and his wife showed us the way there - it is approx 4 km from Vryses. It was a real Cretan home - theirs in fact, though they had moved out - and is in a very private location. The house is surrounded by a "small holding" with some sheep to one side and hens to the back. These added to the charm of the place and, as Alexis took care of them all, there was nothing for us to do, apart from enjoy their company! Georgioupoli is about 3km in the other direction so we reckon that a car would be necessary to stay here unless you were a very ardent cyclist or walker!
