The Garden House is 15 minutes walk to Lourdas Beach but longer coming back as it is uphill in places!
There are many other sandy beaches nearby all of which are where the famous logger-head turtles nest in the summer months.
Although the villa is not far from the beach and local tavernas, we strongly recommend that you hire a car. Walking in high summer when temperatures reach 36/38C. can be exhausting. A car is also important if you want to explore the island more fully.
The villa is approx 20-25 mins drive from the airport and most hire car companies have cars available for collection and return at the airport.
There are several well stocked supermarkets in the village and larger stores 20 minutes' drive away. A welcome pack is provided on arrival at the villa and there are several local tavernas very close to the village church approx 10 mins walk along the lane.
