Olives & Oranges

While The Peloponnese region certainly has its fair share of mountainous terrain, you’ll also love spending time on its sandy beaches and exploring dramatic coastlines. Dotted along its shores, quaint villages like Limeni make for postcard-ready scenes next to unbelievably clear blue waters. And just six minutes away by car, this villa also ebbs into the realm of something unbelievable.

Built in line with local architecture of the area, this home sits on a viewpoint that will make you gaze out in wonder and awe. Surrounded by lush vegetation and made from chunky, natural stone, it’s perched on a hillside where you can see miles upon miles of the Mediterranean Sea. Take a seat at one of three separate terrace areas, each with its own vista, and pour a glass of local wine to start your holiday.

After you’ve had your fill of panoramic views, step inside via a pretty blue, wooden front door – true to tradition. Follow the glossy wooden floors through to the cute, country kitchen where you can prepare fresh cuts of meat for the barbecue. Or wander through to the magnificent lounge, where wooden beams line the ceiling and cast a shadow on a superb mezzanine floor. Understated, traditional, and above all cosy, this villa offers Greek hospitality at its best.
