Swimming
pool
In
the ancient and traditional village of Prines just 6 km south from
Rethymnon, this charmingly restored villa is tucked behind sun bleached
high stone walls within spacious gardens, and is approached through
a handsome arched wooden door set in the wall. It has been rebuilt
to a very high standard both inside and out with its charming flagstone
patios and rambling gardens, of 1200sqm, with colourful flowers,
and trees. To further enhance this superb villa, there is a private
swimming pool of 30sqm.
The villa of 180sqm, is on two floors, all furnished and designed
in a most authentic style. On the ground floor is a living room
with traditional Cretan furniture, an open fireplace and a TV. The
kitchen is fully equipped and has an old stone oven as well as an
area for dining with large old wooden furniture to add to the warmth
of atmosphere. Separately there is a utility room, which has a washing
machine.
There
are also 2 double bedrooms on the ground floor, one of which has
a raised double bed, with a small shower/WC, and the other has two
beautiful antique cast iron bedsteads, wooden furniture and polished
floor. Up a curving wooden staircase, on the first floor there are
a further 2 bedrooms both of which have en-suite shower/WC and balconies
with views over the village or the inner courtyard with its marble
topped table and seating area. One of the bedrooms has 2 small double
beds and the other has a beautiful old double bed. They are both
well furnished with wardrobes and desks. The whole house has parquet
floors and high beamed wooden ceilings. The villa is ideally suited
for a group of up to 8 people who want a high standard
of comfort and to be well away from the bustling tourist areas.
It is 3 km to the coast and 5 km to the nearest beach. There is
a small choice of shops and kafenions in the village, with one of
the best tavernas in the area to be found in the village of Atsipopoulo,
2 km away. Rethymnon offers a huge choice of shops, tavernas, sandy
beaches and of course its wonderful atmospheric Venetian harbour
quarter to explore. We do recommend a car.
