Notes on accommodation
This is a very charming house in a traditional, traffic-free Greek village. It has true personality, comfortable beds and lots of room. The sea views are wonderful, a perfect house if you love the 'real' Greece. Alonissos is a simple, laid back, beautiful island with no trappings of mass-market tourism. Please note: we make a small charge of £10 per adult per week for utilities (electricity and water).
Accessibility
The village of Chora is traffic-free, but the walkways are cobbled and often steep.

Petros cottage has a pretty courtyard which is partly shaded with a large, vine covered pergola. It's spacious, private and secluded. An outdoor table seating 6 is perfect for al fresco meals. The cottage also has a good sized balcony with wonderful seaviews.
Coast/Beach
There are lots of lovely beaches within easy reach of Petros Cottage, the nearest one is about 10 minutes by car or a 20 minute walk down the hill. Alonissos is well known for its beautiful coastal walks. There are good beach and walks guides and maps in the cottage.
