VILLAS  ZORBATHES

THE BARN

Peace and quiet in this secluded valley

 

 

 

Zorbathes is a peaceful valley which is hidden close to the centre of Skiathos Island. It is green & fertile & surrounded by pine forests. Through the bottom of the valley run stream beds whose banks are covered by an abundance of wild flowers & ferns, & are shaded by massive plane trees. This end of the island, which is closest to the Pelion Peninsular, receives a goodly amount of winter rain & the lushness of the valley & the surrounding pine forests reflect this.

This is a place to truly relax in.

We have added a good size swimming pool for 2004.
The Barn is surrounded by fruit trees, oleanders, Virginia creeper, vines & flowering shrubs. There is a shady patio & another sitting area under the shade of a large pine tree.

It is built in traditional style using rock, wood & stucco, natural slate & tiles. Internally we have laid floors of terra-cotta tiles. The cupboards & kitchen furniture are all hand made in pinewood. Outside is a large shady patio of Pelion slate.

The accommodation consists of a fully equipped kitchen & open-plan living room with French doors leading out to the patio. There are two bathrooms with showers and one also has a bath. There are two bedrooms with double beds and a bedroom with twin beds. Another bedroom has one bed and there is a couch in the living room which converts to an extra bed. This is an ideal house for a couple, or a family or  group of up to 8 people.

We built this house for when one of our daughters gets married & Lida has made it into a "home" rather than a "rental". All our clients have commented on it's cosy feeling.

Unless you are keen walkers, car hire is recommended.
We work together with several hire car firms and can arrange your hire car for you.
