My husband's a cat lover and was in seventh-heaven spending the morning of his birthday in a room with a mother-cat and her many kittens at Gina's place. You really have to be an animal lover to fully appreciate this extraordinary airbnb - although very well behaved cats and dogs aren't the only attraction here with its pleasant garden and two terraces. Have breakfast in the upper terrace overlooking the hilly terrain (why don't you) while you are at table under a walnut tree interlaced with honeysuckle. This is where you can eat your supplied yoghurt, honey and granola and a cup of tea from this ex-Devon cream tea cafe host. The rooms available include comfortable beds, a separate shower room and a downstairs area for DVD-watching and food prep with fridge. The village has a coffee-orientated cafe opposite where gentlemen toy with their beads and the lovely town of Spili is not far away with all the holiday-makers needs supplied. Hard-working Gina made sure we were comfortable at every turn. Can't recommend more than that for a mountain village experience in Crete.
