About this property

Characterful restored Greek house close to both mountain and sea

Koutsoufi Accommodation Licence number: 00000137090
Welcome to 'Koutsoufi', our lovingly restored (2010) traditional Greek house in Tyros. A spacious house in an idylic elevated position with access to mountain footpaths and only a 5-10 minute drive from the beach and the port town of Tyros where one can find all amenities in this traditional fishing port.
Koutsoufi is very much a retreat, a peaceful house, in which is much more than simply a place to sleep. There are two bedrooms, one master bedroom upstairs with a double bed and en-suite bathroom and one large guest bedroom downstairs with 2 double beds and one singles and an en-suite and private access to the terrace. Alternative sleeping spaces could be set up on one of the couches too but we recommend a maximum of 7 people. But Koutsoufi is much more than a place to sleep - there is a grand piano in the living room, a large pool table, a well equipped kitchen and an outside cooking and eating area on the sea-view terrace. There is a wood-fired bread oven on the terrace and plenty of parking space outside the house. The house has central heating for the Winter as well as two fireplaces and underfloor heating and underfloor cooling and air conditioning for the Summer. The house has a breathtaking view over the bay of Tyros and an impressive panorama of the steep mountain behind. Koutsoufi is our special place where we hope you will feel at home as well as on holiday.

Cool historic house with character
House was clean, beautifully designed, and had all necessary amenities and fun kitchen. Great views from the hills up above Tyros. We explored great local beaches and towns of Tyros and Leonidio. Also went up to explore the monastery.

Ort um 100% abzuschalten
Dieses Haus ist geschmackvoll und der Umgebung angemessen renoviert worden. Man fühlt sich sofort zu Hause. Wenn es draussen zu heiß oder kalt sein sollte bieten die gemütlichen Sofas Alternativen zum Fläzen. Sogar die Betten sind gut! Und einfach auf der großen, wunderschönen Terrasse zu sitzen und den Blick aufs Meer oder die Berge schweifen zu lassen ist bereits Erholung. Vielen Dank Dominic und Eireni!

Dreamy villa with a view
We so enjoyed our time out this beautiful property. It is a slice of Grecian heaven and the views and vibes are out of this world. Dominic and Eirini were so helpful and went of their way to make our stay amazing. My children loved the pool tables and olive groves and my husband and I loved the terraces and jetted tub. The property is so charming and full of character. We used this as a home base for exploring the Peloponnese and hope to return one day.

10 Tage Paradies
Wir haben einen wundervollen Urlaub im Haus von Dominic genossen. Es ist alles vorhanden, was man für einen Aufenthalt auf hohem Niveau braucht. Als das warme Wasser einmal nachgelassen hat, hat Irini noch am gleichen Tag durch die Bestellung eines Handwerkers für Abhilfe gesorgt. Vielen Dank - wir kommen wieder! Günter und Bärbel

About the host

Hosted by Dominic Pote

Host profile image
I am a fine-art photographer, living in the Uk with my wife and children. Koutsoufi belonged to my late father and was his dream retirement project -restored from a ruin into a home designed for year-round living. As much as we love to get out there for holidays, we can only make occasional trips so we hope others will enjoy Koutsoufi at other times of the year.

Why they chose this property

This is a very special house at any time of the year and is suited to those who appreciate an inspiring home, a creative space in which you'll probably be just as happy to spend the day at home as at the beach.

What makes this property unique

Feeling of the old Greece, a real escape from the hussle and bustle of life - a chance to make the most of all the local attractions and beaches or just to enjoy the peace of the house and the magnificent view.
