The Garden House, a Lovely Stone Built House with great view
Ta Petrina's Garden House is a real hidden gem sitting at the top of the village with a spacious shady terrace and beautiful garden. From the terrace you have a panoramic view towards the mountains. It makes for an ideal family holiday home.
If you are looking for a sterile modern resort hotel room with power showers, TV and the like, then this is not for you. On the other hand, if you are looking for a charming, 200 year old stone built house with a touch of romance, filled with artefacts, books and memories of the past, then this house just could be it! Of course the house has wifi, air conditioning and the essential amenities you need to make your stay enjoyable.
This lovely stone built house is on three levels. The main floor consists of a living room with open kitchen, a small hall, the first bathroom (with shower) and a twin bedroom. The kitchen is well equipped with cooker, big fridge, coffee-maker, kettle, toaster and all the necessary kitchen utensils. The twin bedroom has mosquito nets, air conditioning and a fan, while the living room/kitchen has a ceiling fan. From the hall a wooden staircase leads up to the air conditioned loft with two single beds, which can be made into a big double bed. The loft is a special place where children usually love to sleep. A stone built staircase leads you down to the cool lower level which in the old days used to be the stables. Now totally renovated, the space has been converted into a spacious and lovely master bedroom, a hall with hammock and a bathroom carved into the rocks. The bathroom has a bath and a washing machine. In the garden there is an outdoor shower, perfect for when you come back from the beach. The house is fully equipped with bedding and towels, including beach towels. Also a baby cot and high chair can be provided.
The GARDEN HOUSE can also be an ideal retreat for remote workers, digital nomads and writers; for longer rentals the price is negotiable.
You can park a car quite close to the house (free of charge). From the Garden House you can walk down (10 min) to the centre of the village, where you will find a choice of tavernas, cafes and several shops.
The house is fully licensed by the GTO (Greek Tourist Organisation).Volissos is built on a hill nestling underneath a Genoese castle looking out south across the blue waters of the Aegean. As you sit on your terrace enjoying the mountains slowly turning pink in the last rays of the sun, or as you wander around the village as it winds down from the castle, you quickly realize that Volissos is still very much a traditional village. It is 2 km from the little harbour/marina of Limnia and the nearest beaches of Lefkathia and Limnos, both of which have a beach bar (the use of the umbrellas and sun loungers are free). Just a little further away is the 6 km long Managros beach, where it is always easy to find a quiet spot to enjoy the crystal clear waters of the Aegean sea. Apart from these, whichever way you go up or down the coast, there are numerous beaches to choose from.
Volissos lies on the north west coast of the island of Chios, 40 km from the main town, port and airport. The village has two mini markets, a butcher, a baker and even a candle maker. A green grocer comes around three times a week selling produce out of the back of his pickup though you can find fruit and vegetables in the local shops. Also local fishermen come around with the catch of the day. There is a Pharmacy, Post Office, Police Station and ATM machine. Volissos has a small clinic with a doctor always available 24/7.
I can help to arrange car/jeep/scooter or a bicycle rental on request. A bus service runs 3 times a week between Volissos and Chios town.
Chiots are passionate and live life to the fullest, even at difficult times. The result is an island seemingly riddled with challenges, yet full of people loving life. Chios is still one of the most unspoiled islands in Greece.
I am sure you will be pleasantly surprised by Chios and the village of Volissos!
