Scheria

Encircled by elegant cypress spires and ancient olive trees, this very Mediterranean villa is furnished in informal country style, its cool rooms framed by flagstone floors and beamed timber ceilings. Huge terraces of mellow stone surround a softly curved infinity pool, and hem the house to create an elegant al fresco sitting and dining room, catching sea breezes, covered for shade, and complete with marble dining table. Understated and ultra-relaxing, the spacious house has a well-equipped kitchen and cheerful living room, and five bedrooms, each with air conditioning and a ceiling fan.Cook service can be arranged locally for truly leisurely days, and Kouloura’s taverna is a ten minute stroll from the villa. With views through the trees to the glittering sea, this hillside hideaway has a private footpath through the olive groves, emerging on the eucalyptus-shaded beach below. Becalmed between two bigger bays, Kouloura is just 1km from water sports and the Blue Flag beach of Kalami, and an easy 7km drive from nightlife in Kassiopi.
