Holiday home - Plaka, Greece

Description

The fabulous location in the heart of the pretty hamlet of Plaka close to Chania and with the popular beach of Almyrida within walking distance makes Epavlis Plaka the perfect base for those wanting a break from driving on a daily basis. Set down a narrow cobbled lane, with a walled courtyard and a simple domed doorway belying the privacy and sheer convenience of the villa, it is also a lovingly renovated local house with a swimming pool in the spacious courtyard and a roof terrace with sea views to enjoy as the sun sets! The swimming pool terrace boasts a built in barbecue and a covered dining area so ideal for outdoor living and neatly hidden away the villa lives up to the peaceful atmosphere with few cars venturing through the tiny lanes crisscrossing the tiny village.Inside the patio doors open onto the dining room with the kitchen seperate to it and a romantic four poster bedroom with typical arched doorways and an en suite shower room on the ground floor. Also the ground floor sitting room boasts a wooden platform with twin beds and curtains seperating it from the main living area and a seperate shower room for easy access, frequently enjoyed by groups of friends and families, the living room becomes an extra bedroom for groups of 6, or remains a living room for smaller groups. On the first floor is the final four poster bedroom with an ensuite shower room and of course, the amazing roof top terrace with superb sea views over the roof tops of the Plaka and Alymirida villages. The clever mix of contemporary and traditional decor give the villa a comfortable, informal and welcoming ambience, and there is plenty of room for everyone to relax and spread out. Two minutes walk away is Plakas charming village square, with the Epavlis Plaka's owner's popular taverna on hand and a couple of other restaurants, a mini market and kiosk for essentials, and a simple footpath ( a bit steep!) to popular Almyrida beach and the many restaurants and shops.
