Oranges, Dendiatika, Loggos

Prices from £217€ per day.

Built, owned and loved by an English family, “Oranges” is a modern, spacious 3 bedroom villa situated in the tiny hamlet of Dendiatika up in the peaceful olive groves above the well known fishing harbour village of Loggos.

‘‘Oranges’’ offers a feel of the real Greece but with all the facilities and entertainments you would want on a Greek island holiday easily to hand. Although detached and private, the property is on the main lane so easily accessed by car/taxi, and there is plenty of parking space on the drive.

The ancient track known as “The Donkey Steps” terminates just outside the front gate and provides a beautiful 10 minute walk down into the village with it’s harbour-side bars, shops and excellent tavernas.

Across the lane, the so called ‘fairy path’ winds you down through the olive groves to Glyfada Beach, a beautiful and relatively quiet cove where the water is crystal clear blue and perfect for swimming. Of course, the down hill is easier than the return and this needs to be kept in mind for those with very small children or elderly guests.

Taxis are available and can be booked in advance but a hire car may be helpful.

Built 18 years ago, the property has been tastefully finished in keeping with its surroundings and provides charming features such as natural stone walls, open pine ceiling and a solid creamy white granite floor. Internally, it is finished to a high standard and provides modern facilities including a TV, washing machine, dishwasher and large fridge freezer.

There are several sun loungers and also concrete benches with cushions for lounging and relaxing. The whole garden is walled and gated so safe for children.

The bedrooms are all good sized and tastefully furnished with air conditioning. The bedrooms also have ceiling fans which most find adequate throughout the summer months, and the windows are fitted with mosquito screens should you not be a lover of air con.

All in all, this a superbly situated, spacious, comfortable family house, ideal for a Greek island holiday to remember.
