Nestors (1 Bedroom, Sleeps 2/4)

The villa has an uninhibited view of the sea with large verandas facing out toward the the gulf of Messinia, on the south east of the most westernly Peleponnese finger, looking towards the Mani. Peloponnese sits on the end of the Balkans which start in Vienna. Messinia sits at the tip of the Peleponnese and Koroni is as far south as you can go without leaving the mainland. So, for those of you who like to get the end of a road, this is it!

Owner profile
About the owner
The Strong family take turns to run Saintfridays. The early and late parts of the season are managed by Andreas and Sylvia and the peak season is managed by Paul and Hilary - assisted by the next generation.
Year purchased: 2006
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We always loved the area, Paul cycled here in the early 1980's and as a couple we drove here on our way to Cyprus - as you do. It struck us as a bastion of traditional Greece. There is some tourism but not a lot, its very quiet in the winter and has a buzz about the place in the summer. We came to take a sabbatical from the 9-5 and it gave the children a chance to learn Greek properly.
Unique benefits of the property
Peace and quiet in a safe secluded spot. Access to a world as far removed from city life as you can get. By not having TV and Stereos in the villas we ensure you are not subjected to anyone else's TV or stereos. We give peace and quiet in a safe secluded spot - and did I mention the view?
