This 150-year-old stone mansion used to be state-run guesthouse offering basic comfort and little charm. That changed when Thefi and Irini took over about ten years ago. They added the personal touches the guesthouse needed to become a warm and inviting place, starting with simple gestures such as supplying the bedrooms with ample supplies of candles and giving some colour to the old vaulted cellar now used as breakfast and sitting room. Then they moved on to bigger projects and restored the house next door where they made four luxurious suites (with working fireplaces, Jacuzzi’s and all the mod cons). The bedrooms in the mansion itself are furnished in an attractive, local style with wooden built-in beds and low coffee tables; the suites are more luxurious in style. Breakfast is a real treat with excellent omelettes, stacks of mini-pancakes, yogurt, preserved fruits and freshly squeezed orange juice.
