Overview

Sofia's Cottage itself is a typical quaint fisherman's cottage furnished in a simple yet comfortable manner. The highlight of the cottage has to be its large, covered veranda which provides breath-taking views across the harbour to the fortress on the headland beyond. Watching the fishing boats return with their catch in the evening from this vantage point is a truly memorable experience.

Inside the cottage, you'll find a kitchen, double bed and a shower room. While the beach is just a few steps away, it's worth noting that it will take just a few more metres to reach the Plateia, where you can find magnificent plane trees and a selection of tavernas and a mini-market for all your needs. This idyllic setting, combined with the charming simplicity of the cottage, makes it a perfect retreat for those seeking a slower pace of life in a beautiful and unspoilt Greek village.
