Photos and Description of the Leonidio vacation house rental Set in a quiet, peaceful, unspoilt area - ideal for swimming and walking

The house is set in its own olive grove on a quiet hillside overlooking the sea. This is a newly built property designed to be light and airy but constructed in traditional stone style to keep cool in the summer. The upstairs is large, open and spacious with a kitchen, a dining area and a seating area around the log fireplace. The large balcony has stunning sea views. The two bathrooms and the two large bedrooms are on the ground floor with French windows opening onto a stone terrace under arches. There is an extensive olive grove behind the house (including a swing) so this a great place for children. A secluded beach is a 10 minute walk along a track adjoining the property while the seaside village of Livadi is a 20 minute walk (or 5 minute drive). The rear of the house has beautiful views of the Mount Parnon range so this is an excellent base for a walking or birdwatching holiday. Arkadia is a very traditional part of Greece and the local villages are well worth visiting.

Livadi is nestled on one of the last unspoilt pieces of coastline in Greece. The area is not traversed by any major roads and no one comes through here on there way to anywhere else. You do not need to battle through crowds on to a ferry, or wait for a table at the taverna, or try to find a quiet spot on the white pebble beaches. This is Greece as it was. Where donkeys carry the seasonal crops; olives, carobs, and oranges. Where the only sound is the birdsong and the wind in the trees. Where the mountains run to the sea and both change colour as the sun touches them giving us a new view every moment. This is an ideal spot for someone looking for peace and light and air and who wants to to see traditional, unspoilt Greece. The village is a great base for mountain walks and is a short walk down a track to a quiet stretch of coastline with excellent beaches. Livadi is midway between and 15 minutes' drive from the larger towns of Leonidion and Tyros.

Further details for this vacation house rental in Leonidio, Greece

Local Area: The house is a short walk to a secluded beach down a quiet track adjoining the property. Alternatively a 5 minute drive takes you to the unspoilt, seaside village of Livadi which has two good tavernas. Although there is a regular bus direct to/from Athens, a car is recommended for getting around the area. The larger towns of Leonidion and Tyros offer shops, banks etc and are both a 15 minute drive away - Tyros to the North, Leonidion to the South. There are several very traditional villages nearby which are well worth a visit. This is one of the most unspoilt parts of Greece and has a variety of scenery from quiet pebbly beaches to spectacular mountain walks (the Mount Parnon range overlooks the house). This makes it especially suitable for those who enjoy walking or birdwatching but will also suit visitors who just want to relax on a quiet beach. This property is ideal for those who want to get away from it all and who would like to see a very traditional part of Greece.

Other facilities and services: The owners will arrange a 'meet and greet' and if required can do a basic shop before your arrival so that essential foodstuffs are waiting for you (just let us know what you need). An information pack is provided with details of local amenities including maps of walks in the area. Beach towels, beach mats, lilos, board games, books etc are all available in the house for the use of guests.

Other Activities: birdwatching

Highly recommendable getaway in greece!

Karin & Georg Germany
Review Submitted: August 26, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a wonderful stay at the house which was very comfortable and well equipped

Lovely and quiet property and a nice and almost private beach in short distance.

We very much enjoyed the privacy. The view from the balcony is really unbeatable.

The owners Nigel and Wendy were always very kind and helpfull. Particularly in tips where to go and what to do.

Looking forward to coming back soon.

A Quiet, Beautiful, Relaxing Getaway

themightysven Athens, Greece
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We stayed for a week, which felt like much longer in the best possible way. Our two young children (5 and 3) adored the climbing ladders, hammocks, and swing in the olive grove. The layout of the house is lovely, with the bedrooms downstairs to take advantage of the cool and the "great room" upstairs combining open kitchen and living room. We walked to the beach from the house, as advertised, but found a wonderful almost private beach better suited to the children a short and scenic five-minute's drive down the road. The house was clean, well appointed, spacious, comfortable. The area is lovely and was quite unpopulated tourist-wise considering that we arrived during the busiest part of the summer season. Nigel provides excellent advise about things to do and see, tavernas, etc. Coming from Athens, we look forward to staying in the house in the spring and fall to take advantage of the opportunities for hiking, etc. We were very very happy with our stay.

A wonderful property in a beautiful location.

Diane+Hugh UK
Review Submitted: June 24, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
This is a wonderful property in a beautiful location. The house is very comfortable and well equipped. We loved the area and found it a wonderful place to relax or go for walks. We even had the experience of walking along a track and being stopped by a man who presented us with a bottle of wine and on another occasion a lady gave us a cucumber - what wonderful hospitality.

We greatly appreciated being met by the owners and the wealth of information and thought they have given to ensuring that people have a good time at their house.

Authentic, idyllic and natural

Joost, Dominique and kids Malden, Gelderland, Netherlands
Review Submitted: May 11, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
If you are eager to discover Greece and feel, touch and see Greek, don't hesitate and book this house. Nearby you will find all the right ingredients for your stay: walk in 10 minutes to a quiet beach, visit unspoilt mountain villages like Pera Melena en Pragmateftis or meet friendly Greek people on your way to lovely whitewashed chapels. Just around the corner. And when you return to 'your' house, these nice experiences will be kept, sitting on the balcony or in the olive garden. You will have a wonderful time in Greece.
