About this property

Pristine Mountain Escape — Sweeping Views, Privacy, and Serenity

Α dreamy centuries-old, renovated gem of a farmhouse in the mountains, for people who love nature, the tinkling music of goat bells, and each other! With spectacular views of five Cycladic Islands and the surrounding rugged hills, this property is perfect for those seeking peace and a chance to hike, paint, write or think.

We've taken great care in updating the two separate traditional cottages on the property: renters get the entire place to themselves when they stay. Surrounded by an herb garden and fig, pomegranate, almond and olive trees, the home has incredible views in all directions.

The Space
This mountain retreat blends historic architecture with artistic design, sparkling cleanliness, and modern amenities. Every detail has been impeccably and creatively decorated.

The open-plan upper cottage sleeps three (one twin bed and two twin sofas) and has a charming kitchen, living room, dining room and bathroom. The pergola-covered terrace is perfect for dining al fresco.

Across the garden patio, the lower cottage sleeps four (one queen bedroom and another room with a bunk bed for two) and has its own bathroom and kitchenette.

This is the quintessential “Old Greece,” a bit off the beaten path, but within fifteen minutes of four villages, a dozen beaches, and several delicious tavernas.

Only for those who seek magical settings.

PLEASE NOTE: the air conditioning is only in the lower house in the master bedroom. The upper house is cooled by fans and mountain air.

Typique ! (4x4 indispensable !)
Très bon séjour chez Alexis, avec qui les échanges préalables par mail avaient été faciles et précis . Nous avons été parfaitement accueillis par Georgios à notre arrivée, joignable également pendant la semaine de manière très réactive et gentille. Un service de ménage très agréable à mi-séjour. La maison est agréable dans un environnement typique : isolée, avec une vue magnifique sur la mer Egée, au son du troupeau de chèvres, au milieu des collines. Avis aux amateurs ! Le charmant village d’Aliki (sa plage et ses tavernes !) est à un 10-15 mn en voiture. Et tout sur Paros est accessible rapidement : les superbes criques et plages, les villes de Naoussa et Parikia, etc... Mais attention, pour aller et venir depuis la maison, le 4x4 nous paraît indispensable. Nous avions une voiture classique (voyageant en famille) et c’était vraiment limite (et avons crevé un pneu...). Merci Alexis de nous avoir permis de découvrir Paros !

Des maisons ravissantes nichées dans la montage, vue à couper le souffle
Nous avons passé 10 jours fantastiques dans ce petit domaine perdu dans les montagnes. Une vue fantastique, des recoins, des terrasses un peu partout et deux petites maisons jointes au charme fou. Maison fraiche malgré la chaleur. Réveil au son des clochettes des chèvres le matin. Déco soignée et pleine de charme. Les plages sont accessibles en 10 minutes de voiture. Seul bémol : le chemin d'arrivée est en état "sauvage" et nous avons abimé la voiture de location avec un caillou saillant en dessous. Prévoir un 4x4 Accueil chaleureux et sympathique de Giorgios, qui nous a aussi donné des infos précieuses sur la région et avait rempli le frigo pour nous. Nous reviendrons !

A perfect dream house located in paradise
First, let me say that my wife and I have traveled to many places around the world. For me, staying at this house in Paros is for sure on top of my list. It was PERFECT! The house is so comfortable. You just immediately feel at home here. The views were amazing. The house was so spacious. The location was superb. You are only one exit away from a wonderful beach village of Aliki. The hostess was so accommodating. She made sure that we got our rental car, gave us maps and great advice on places to go and see. Even a map and orientation of all the wonderful beaches to visit. Staying at this house was perfect. I never wanted to leave and even am considering moving to Paros sometime in the future.

Beautiful house in fantastic surroundings!
Our family stayed almost three weeks in this beautiful home, and we loved it! Our two teenagers enjoyed having the charming old goat house all by themselves, while my husband and I slept comfortable in the main house. We had simple, lovely family meals at the veranda. Early breakfasts with breathtaking views of hills and sea, and relaxing dinners under the stars. The surroundings of the house were fantastic! A well kept dirt road led across mountains, and in three weeks, we met only ONE car while drivning to and from house! Except from a farm on the next hill, our only neighbours were goats grazing on the hills all around us. Olive trees, almond trees, grapes,and wild herbs were growing everywhere. It was beautiful, quiet and very peaceful. Our extremely nice and professional concierge Georgios, helped us settle in, and gave us all the information about Paros we could ask for! He helped us finding all the best beaches and restaurants around the island, and made us feel very welcome. We had a great holiday in a lovely home! /Anna and family, from Sweden

Beautiful Mountain Retreat
This is a lovely property with a beautiful outdoor space where you can eat and relax under the stars. There are nice spaces for that afternoon siesta as well. Inside, there is a quaint but well provisioned kitchen and livingroom in the main house. The bedrooms in the other building are very nice as well. One is perfect for kids and the master suite is quaint and comfortable. The place was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed visiting a variety of beaches, touring some of the outlying towns, going over to Little Paros for pizza (and wandering about) and eating at the many fine restaurants in town. Very enjoyable!

Why they chose this property

This is our beloved family home. We have renovated and designed it with comfort and beauty in mind. We visit every year and it is part of the wonder of our lives.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the tinkle of goat bells as they graze in the mountains and olive groves and relax in your secluded home wrapped in patios and gardens — with thrilling views to the sea and the islands beyond.

About Paros:
Paros is truly an island with something for everyone – perfect for families with small children, couples or groups of friends and older travellers. It sits at the center of the Cycladic islands in the Aegean sea. The island’s excellent sandy beaches and sparkling waters are also world-famous for kite surfing and windsurfing.

Paros also offers rich historical treasures, fun shopping and art galleries, and top-notch locally produced food and wine.

To explore the Cyclades, ferries operate regularly throughout the high season to Naxos, Mykonos, Santorini and Tinos (and other islands, too!). The charming small island of Antiparos is served by frequent, quick daily ferries year-round from nearby Pounta port.
