Open the wooden picket gate and step into the delightful stone paved courtyard, set behind the stone wall. The villa Sofa is built in warm honeyed limestone, and the old wooden shutters and ivy combine to create a wonderful building, full of character. Surrounded by mature shrubs, lush foliage and stone patios, it is easy to imagine you have stepped back in time. The swimming pool and outside barbecue area provide the perfect promise of fun filled days and evenings. Step inside, through the old wooden doors into a delightful room laid with flagstones, old stone walls and a wonderful beamed ceiling. The beautiful stone fireplace has been used over many centuries. Throw open the wooden shutters and venture upstairs to the master bedroom and pinch yourself. What could be better than this? Just a few minutes from the modern beach resorts of Maleme and Platanias, step back in time as you turn into the meandering lane that leads to the picturesque hamlet of Metochi, with a history dating back to the 1700’s, when Crete was still under Turkish rule. The tiny hamlet is laced with evocative stone walls surrounding centuries old buildings built in weathered limestone, with vine covered pergolas and lush gardens overflowing with jasmine and roses. It takes little imagination to evoke an atmosphere of yesteryear, whilst enjoying all the comforts of a relaxing luxury holiday. Our villas 'Laina' and 'Sofas' – are both officially declared listed buildings, as traditional old mansions, dated back to the 18th century, entirely renovated in 2020-2021 and sympathetically restored to a level of luxury appreciated by the discerning traveler, seeking comfort in an environment which only an ancient building can provide. Each villa is totally independent, set within its own spacious and private stone walled courtyard garden with its private pool and private parking for both villas. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Rooftop terrace ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 3 steps to reach entrance - Handrails in stairways - Tile flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Safe ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near the marina - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Bicycles - Horseback riding nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - 100% renewable energy - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Bicycles - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Garden - Recycling - Solar energy - Unit size: 861 square feet - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34070000/34066900/34066877/973b22b0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### House located in the center of an exceptional region to discover !
