This charming three bedroom villa is located in the rustic village of Peristerona.

Description

In the gardens are two fountains, a pond, a variety of fruit trees, barbecue and tables and chairs for ‘al fresco' dining.

The open plan living/dining/kitchen area is decorated with authentic nik-naks, with an old fashioned fireplace for winter use. Entertainment is provided by a television with limited satellite channels, DVD player and also CD player. There is a large table and six chairs.

The original part of the villa is just a few steps down from the rest of the house, the master bedroom, is 200 years old and features a traditional Cypriot four poster double bed. This room can be entered via the house or directly from the gardens. The master bedroom has its own en-suite shower room.

A further two bedrooms are located off the living area, one of which features a double bed and a single bed and the other a double bed only. These have the use of a bathroom located next to the third bedroom. All the bedrooms have air conditioning.

There is a hairdryer and baby cot and high chair are available on request.

The free form pool is gated so ideal for children and has a pool shower, sunbeds and an umbrella. Climbing an external spiral staircase leads to a roof terrace with picnic table where you have panoramic views of the mountains, Akamas region and all the way down to the sea.

In the northwest corner of the island numerous villages are hidden away in the hills behind the bay of Polis Chrysochous. If you would like to experience a more authentic side of Cyprus then these are the places to head to. Just about every one of these villages has a small village store for basic provisions and the requisite ‘kafenion' where locals gather to socialize and chat covering everything from village gossip to political discussions over thick, strong coffee and maybe a game of backgammon, but that is about as lively as it gets, as the emphasis on a stay in these villages is rest and relaxation.

Peristerona is one such village. The kafenion and village store are approximately 500 metres from the villa, with a larger supermarket being found in the neighbouring village of Skoulli approximately 5.3 kms away. Small tavernas serving simple village dishes are found in the neighbouring villages of Lysos and Steni both within 3.5 kms of the villa.

Just because you prefer to stay inland doesn't mean you have to miss out on the beach experience. The coastal resorts of Polis and Latchi are both within 12 kilometres of the villa and both feature coarse sand and shingle beaches with sunbeds and umbrellas for hire and restaurants/snack bars providing refreshments. If you prefer a more remote option then venture a little further along the coast to the natural stretch of coarse sand, shingle and pebble that runs along the Argaka shoreline. For a day here you will need to bring your own beach mat and umbrella, refreshments can be found at one of the handful of tavernas scattered along the coastal road or you can take a cool box and lunch under the shade of the trees in one of the designated picnic areas.

Polis the principal town for this region huddles around a pedestrianised square, a great place to browse the many shops, enjoy a coffee while watching the world pass by or dine at any of the wide selection of restaurants, tavernas and cafes which radiate out from the centre.

The seaside resort of Latchi, with its well known sea food tavernas is only a few minutes drive from Polis, and here you will find an array of inviting sea-front tavernas with a superb selection of fresh fish and seafood served daily.

Beyond Latchi you will find the well known 'Baths of Aphrodite' and for the more adventurous explorer the protected Akamas Peninsular with its many walking trails. Take the time to explore some of the villages off the beaten path where you'll discover such delights as village cultural centres and museums, galleries, Churches and wineries with free wine tasting!

Polis and the surrounding villages count bowling, go-karting, fishing, cycling, watersports and scuba diving amongst the many activities on offer to visitors. The Minthis Hills Golf Course is just under a 30 minute drive away whilst the town of Paphos with its World Heritage Sites, modern shopping facilities, waterpark and attractive harbour area is within a 40 minute drive. ... read more »hide »
