Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
If you'd like to start your days by eating organic, locally grown fruits and taking idyllic walks through the countryside, this stone farmhouse is the place for you. Live the laidback life you’ve dreamed of, where the only decision to make is which of the many seating areas to read your book from. Sitting atop a mountain, nestled among 3 acres of olive trees, oaks and cypresses, you can only imagine the gorgeous views this home is treated to. You’ll feel a far cry from Paleokastritsa and its bars, restaurants, and beaches, although it's just a fifteen-minute drive away. Stepping inside, you’ll find an interior that is exactly what you expect from a charming country house – stone brick walls, vaulted ceilings, and homely touches. But there are mod-cons aplenty, with a luxurious jacuzzi bath and chef’s kitchen. However, we imagine you’ll want to spend most of your time taking advantage of your dreamy outdoor area. When you’re not taking dips in the pool or soaking up the sun, you’ll love reading in the swaying hammock, playing cards on the patio, or even doing a quick workout in the outdoor gym area. All the while, the bucolic scenery of rolling... hills and luscious trees provides a sense of peace. The best place to take in the views is from the stone barbecue area – nothing beats tucking into a dinner of fresh grilled produce while watching the sun dip behind the mountainous landscape.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
