Photos and Description of this Fthiotis holiday villa 5/6 bedroom Villa, sleeps 9 (+4), stunning pool, gardens, nr village/beaches

Stunningly different accommodation that’s spacious and private, in a tranquil serene setting. Built on the grounds of ancient bakery and stables reusing some original walls and windows in design with private pool set amongst walls from 400 BC. Private gardens have lawns and many trees including palm, pine, and fruits. With satellite TV, Wi-Fi, a farmhouse kitchen, huge open terraces. With 13 rooms we’ve plenty of space for 9 or more. Ideal for METEORA and DELPHI. We’re a motorway drive from Athens; Olive grove country, rural villages, and few tourists. We’re set on the Aegean coast with miles of coastline to enjoy – some beaches often empty of people, hard-to-get-to tiny coves to find and explore, or busy seaside resorts Athenians love weekending in – cafes, bars and restaurants, sailing, tennis.Also private SAILING and DINING. Warm and friendly locals, few tourists. And our warm and personal welcome, with our attention to detail. Guests say STUNNING, UNFORGETTABLE.

Worth a visit

The Major Bedford, England
Review Submitted: December 12, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
A relatively easy drive from Athens airport on the recently upgraded highway. Set in a small rural Greek village but within easy access of large towns and the sea side town of Rahes which is excellent for evening entertainment - great bars and restaurants. An interesting villa very different from the norm and incorporated with ancient walls from what used to be an old bakery and stables. A large property and very spacious with comfortable furnishings. The pool area is great and many wonderful evenings were spent in this area; the chef night is well worth doing and you will need your Greek dancing shoes! A car is highly recommended if you want to visit the beaches, but public transport is available. Within easy reach of many cultural sights. A most enjoyable and different experience for a holiday away from the usual summer holiday crowds. We were well looked after by the owner who was always willing to help with any questions or queries. Worth a go!

Review Submitted: January 2, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
having had many holidays on Greek Islands we decided to visit mainland greece and chose the villa in achinos. It was a lovely holiday from start to finish. Lovely clean spacious villa with great views and swimming pool to cool you down. Even if you are in a large party ( we were smallish) there is plenty of room for peace and quiet. There are plenty of good resturants in the village and surrounding area. If you want entertainment there is the town of Raches (nice beach there also) and Lamia is about 20/30mins away. We had a car, however the children used public transport which was fine and also we had a taxi occasionally in the evening... We like our wine!!
We found the owner very helpfull and not at all pushy Nothing was too much trouble for him. I would strongly recommend this villa.
