Outside
Beautifully formed garden, large paved patio area equipped with wooden outdoor furniture for enjoying a cup of tea or even for an open-air dining, private pool of 60 sq.m. (depth 80cm -1.85m) surrounded with sunbeds and umbrellas, poolbar with stools and separate fridge and poolside shower. Outdoor furniture on every single balcony, too.
Coast/Beach
Secluded bays with crystal clear sea water or organised beach bars with sea beds and umbrellas? The choice is yours and rests 7km away (10 minutes drive) to Xylokastro.
Skiing
The location of our property is an ideal attraction throughout the whole year, because our tiny village is situated 10 minutes from the closest beach (Xylokastro), but also 40 minutes from the closest ski resort (Trikala Korinthias, 1.600m-2.376m). A special characteristic of our area is the intense alternation of scenery and altimeter in very short distances. 'Trikala' is one of the top cosmopolitan destinations the latest years, for winter season in Greece, where someone can choose between beginner's ski slopes with trainer, routes for advanced skiers, games for the children with sleds, even climbing at the highest point of the mountain "Ziria" through marked paths and whatever the choice will be, returning back to the beautifull cafeteria for a hot coffee or a hot chocolate, ends in the best way an extreme day.
Travel
150km from Athens International Airport, 130km from the port of Piraeus and 90km from the port of Patra. The use of car is essential, so in case you are interested in car hiring, please let us know in order to provide you all the necessary information.

Further details
As mentioned above there are beautiful traditional tavernas and a mini market very close to our property, in the main area of the village. Xylokastro on the other hand offers different choices of restaurants with Mediterranean cuisine, located by the sea.
