Description
(Reference number: 507435) Deep in the Cretan countryside, surrounded by rugged mountains, fragrant flowers and Mediterranean shrubbery, this rustic home makes the most of its rural setting. You don't often get views like this, so take a moment to appreciate the panoramas from the many terraces. Mornings call for coffee and fresh fruit – maybe even a mimosa if you're feeling fancy – before heading down to the plunge pool for a dip in the sunshine. Later on, as the day slowly comes to an end, get together for a barbecue and watch the stars pop out over the mountaintops. Even inside, the scenery is front and centre, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows. With its vaulted timber ceilings and exposed stone walls, the living area feels like a great hall in the days of old – and the open-plan layout means you can chill out on the sofa, convene around the table and cook up a storm without missing a beat in the conversation. A separate office has worker bees covered, while the cosy and charming bedrooms are a restful retreat after a long afternoon. Our favourite bit? The telescope, which makes both birdwatching and stargazing a dream. When you're ready to venture out and about, Rethymno is about 15 kilometres away – the Venetian harbour, 19th-century lighthouse, and traditional tavernas make it an ideal day trip. You're also a fifteen-minute drive from a sandy beach. Home truths: *Due to uneven ground, steps without railings and low walls on the terrace, this home isn't suitable for children under 12 years old *The air conditioning is only in the bedrooms *This is a remote area so you'll need a car – there's parking for up to four vehicles on-site *Your host provides a welcome basket to make you feel at home *Cleaning and linen changes are carried out once a week *There's a tavern and cafe 1km away *If you plan on working from home, there's a dedicated office as well as a desk in the living area . Thinking of selling? We have the right buyers if you have the right property. Five Star International - Targeted global audience Tel: +353 (0)1 566 8494 Email: admin@fivestar.ie
