The house is in a quiet and beautiful setting with views over the hills and sea. It is close to a few little towns with nice restaurants and good beaches but you definitely need a car. If you have a car you can easily get to the main sites nearby including Elafonissi beach which is worth the trip.
The house itself was a good size for us and all the basics were there if a little dated. There is good air con downstairs but only ceiling fans upstairs in the bedrooms. The main house sleeps 4 and then there is a downstairs room with a double and 2 singles with a bathroom. It has a separate external entrance. We didn’t need it as there were only 3 of us but I’m not sure how I’d feel about staying in that part. It just isn’t as nice or welcoming.
The pool is stunning and warm and had plenty of sunbeds and parasols. And there were a couple of nice outside seating areas although only for 4 people.
Overall it is a really nice house and we really enjoyed our stay but could do with some updating...and be prepared for some very hard mattresses!
