Charming quirky cottages on a working farm (ref: 44999)
Charming quirky cottages on a working farm
In a quiet village in the hills, but close to the beach too!
A charming detached house on two levels set in a small working farm.
The house will sleep up to three people, with a double bed on a mezzanine level, and living space on the ground floor.
This lovely cottage is nothing like the typical rental units that you'll find in Greece, and is full of interesting artifacts, and is decorated in an appealing quirky style.
There is a small private garden with sea views and plenty of space to sit out, and visitors are welcome to make use of the rest of the farm.
Children will be invited to help feed the animals and to swim in the lake which is fed by a natural spring.
Kernitsa is a small hamlet in the hills above the Gulf of Corinth, on the Northern coast of the Peloponnese.
Close to the ski resort of Kalavrita, yet only fifteen minutes from the nearest beach, this is a tranquil spot away from the tourist trail.
The house is situated in a working small holding and is a paradise for families with children. There are rabbits, sheep, a donkey, Penelope the cow and ducks that paddle on the lake.
The estate has just four cottages that are offered to rent and so will never feel crowded. Each has its own private area and each has been individually renovated in a quirky and eclectic style, with a strong traditional flavour and attention to detail.
There is a cafe on the premises offering excellent home cooking using, as far as possible, produce grown on the premises.
The property is managed by a charming energetic lady who delights in her guests' enjoyment.
Children will be invited to help feed the animals and milk the cow, and small children can ride on the donkey.
Everyone is welcome to swim in the lake!
Despite being set in the hills, access is easy, and a short drive will bring you to the coast where there is a choice of beaches, tavernas and shops.
Driving the other way, higher up into the mountains will take you to Kalavrita and the ski resort, meaning that this is a good base for winter as well as summer activities.
Other local attractions include the rack and pinion railway that runs through a gorge from Diakofto on the coast up to Kalavrita, and Mega Spilaio, the oldest monastery in Greece, perched on a the rocks just five minutes from Kernitsa.
There are lakes and caves with stalactite formations that you can visit nearby, as well as numerous traditional villages scattered around the area.
Being elevated, the estate is much greener than coastal parts of Greece, and there is water flowing all year round. In the summer months this is a welcome respite from the heat which can be oppressive in coastal areas.
An authentic Greek experience offering a little more...
