The Old Cretan Cottage

The old cottage is a 300 year old stone built house with all its original futures. Traditional and modern characteristics are blended nicely in this old cottage aiming to create a peaceful living for the tenants where time and nature are cultivating a homely feeling. The house has all the amenities to host a couple or a family up to 3 people with the asking price additional
Guests pay a small feee. Stay at the old Cretan cottage is an experience rather than a stoping place for a night. That’s why I cannot accept less than 1 night stay .
Having private cleaner to look after my cottage since I live abroad makes it easier to have a gap between guests . This is not a hotel like house but a unique cottage and one of the first buildings in the village .The location comprises of hills ideal for hiking and multiple beaches for safe swimming and multiple choice of water sports directly in the Cretan pelagos.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.
