We were in need of a relaxing break and Mistral Cottage provided just that. The cottage and garden are so well maintained by Andreas and Evi, and so clean. The views all round are just spectacular, just what we needed. Andreas also maintains the pool to the highest standard, just beautiful. Lots of butterflies, including swallowtails as previously mentioned, and a friendly lizard in the olive tree where we ate breakfast who proudly shows off his turquoise chin and throat and orange tummy.
We would recommend having a car as the roads are steep and windy.
Aghios Stephanos is a short drive away, a very pretty village with a couple of shops and several tavernas. Hiring a boat here is a must, there are so many little coves to explore and the swimming is great. Kassiope, another lovely village is also a short drive and has a slightly bigger supermarket.
All in all we had an amazing week and would not hesitate to return.
