This authentic stonehouse in rural Crete is a great central location for venturing to many attractions. It was been beautifully renovated. Soula has thought of every comfort detail travelers need for their stay. Her sweet mother provided daily sweet snacks or freshly baked bread. Soula also provided homemade raki to give us a taste of Greek tradition. Beds were comfortable with abundant towels and blankets. The washing machine was a blessing and we dried our clothing on the enclosed patio.
The roadway leading to this property is extremely narrow and steep. Also be advised that a chicken coop is located directly behind the house. We had early wakeups due to the loud crowing of roosters and squawking of chickens. There was also a distinct smell of chickens and a lot of large flies as one would expect with a rural farm. However when windows and doors were kept closed and the a/c on, the smell and flies were kept outdoors. Several nights area dogs barked nonstop practically all night. But we closed the windows and used ac to sleep comfortably.
