If you get the opportunity when in Crete, please try and experience a couple of nights at this accommodation You won’t regret it
We were lucky to be touring around and thought a detour up into the mountains would be a bit different Our boys are 14 and 11 so we’d been to a lot of the popular coast destinations and fancied a change
Now we’re home, the boys are still talking about the Shepherds Hut. It was by far their highlight of the whole holiday
Dimitris & Anna are lovely people Dimitris is clearly passionate about restoring the hut and so he should be. It’s beautifully done and manages to feel really homely, has a wonderful rustic charm but yet has absolutely everything you need to have a relaxing stay
Due to its remoteness, you do need to shop before you get there and the last supermarket is about an hours drive away But you only need buy your food and drink as the kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need
It’s so peaceful with only the tinkling of bells from the herd of goats that pass thro the garden and generally mooch about
The temperature is a lot cooler especially in the evening but it was wonderful to get the open fire going and there are spots to cook outdoors with plenty of cooking equipment The night sky was amazing and each night we sat out and watched the electric storm over the mountain It was so memorable
I couldn’t recommend more highly and wish tbh we could of stayed for longer
