My mother, daughter and I had a lovely time staying at Katalagari. Giorgos gave us a warm welcome and showed us around Archanes. We enjoyed walks in the immediate area through shaded olive groves and up the hillside, covered in spring wild flowers and wild herbs to see the ancient Minoan wine press. The village made an excellent springboard for day trips to the south side of the island and Knossos by car. We really appreciated the lovely local produce sold in the village shop next door and the excellent home cooking provided by the kind lady running the taverna right next to ours!
