Nestled amongst peaceful olive groves, this stylish and serene holiday home will make a great backdrop to many happy memories with your loved ones. It’s based in the tranquil and traditional village of Pagkalochori, just along the coast from Rethymno and a short drive from Stavromenos beach – a fantastic spot for exploring Crete’s north coast. The garden makes a wonderful place to soak up the sunshine, with a large pool for morning lengths as well as a hot tub for soaks at sunset, plus a playground for little ones.
