Thank you Vassilis! Phil and I had the most lovely six week stay at Lefkopetra 1. Nothing was too much trouble for this great host. I messaged Vassilis with a question about the electric BBQ and came back after a day out to find that it had been set-up for us and ready to go!

That was just one of the many kind acts arranged for us as his family are all extremely warm and welcoming too, including his mum and dad, aunt Sonia, Uncles Yiannis and Nico and young Yiannis at the Kafenion. We've stayed in many places in the Apokoronos region before but the people of this town are by far the friendliest 'πολύ φιλικό :-)

What we loved:

1. Showering outside - the best showering experience ever - only showered indoors once in six weeks!

2. Relaxing in the garden looking at the Lefka Ori enjoying a glass of Yiannis Lefkopetra wine :-)

Didn't expect the gorgeous shower gel and shampoo - that was an added bonus, so too were all the lovely welcome gifts, wine, olive oil, Raki, washing powder....the list goes on.

We didn't feel like visitors; we felt like part of the family.
