About the home

Lime House (formerly known as Romer) is ideal for those wanting to be far from the madding crowd, but near to a good choice of excellent tavernas, several secluded beaches and pretty terraced gardens and sundecks to relax in. There are two cottages here, Lime House with two bedrooms and Fig Cottage (formerly know as Les Kai) with one bedroom, set apart from each other on a terraced hillside, with a pretty swimming pool set below them, which is not overlooked by either cottage. Lime House is ideal for 4 people. The details below are for Lime House.

From the cottages you can walk into the nearby village where there are a couple of excellent tavernas and a minimarket. A 25 minute walk will take you to the nearest beach, although there are several secluded beaches to chose from, all within a ten minute drive. A three minute drive will bring you into Fiscardo - the delightful fishing and yachting port where there are many quayside tavernas and local bars where you can sit and watch the boats come in.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
Lime House has one large triple aspect double bedroom with balcony, there is also a mezzanine floor with low level ceiling that can be enjoyed as a quiet reading space with views across the meadow.

A second double room with twin beds (that can also be a joined).

Large bathroom with a delux walk in shower.

The open plan living room/kitchen area is comfortable and cool with access to three terraces, perfect for relaxing and sunset dining.

The living area is well equipped with a flat screen TV - DVD and surround sound stereo system, this area also leads up to a mezzanine area that has a sofa- bed that would comfortably sleep 2 persons (but with low level ceiling) and accessed by a staircase in the living area.

The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you may need.

The house contains most amenities you may need for your stay including a iron/ironing board a small hairdryer and a beach umbrella and high-chair.

Further details outdoors:
Outside there are sun loungers and a dining area under a terraced roof. There are many terraces in the gardens which are filled with a variety of colourful flowers, fruit trees and bourgainvilleas.
The swimming pool is set below the cottages on a private terrace, which is not overlooked by either cottage.
It is shared between Lime House and Fig Cottage, but most guests come to this spot for peace and quiet, so the arrangement works well and you will often have the pool to yourself.

The Kefalonia / Fiscardo area

Places to visit in Kefalonia:

ASSOS
A very picturesque port just 25 minutes drive away from Lime House and Fig Cottage - so go for a day trip to see it, and take a walk up to the castle on the island above it .... if you are feeling fit!

The famous and much photographed MYRTOS BEACH is also nearby - listed as one of the top ten beaches in the world.

MELISSANI LAKE
A semi-underground lake you can take a little boat ride on - the best time to go is at midday, when the sun makes fabulous patterns on the walls of the cave.

DROGERATI CAVE
Stalactites abound ... and Maria Callas gave a concert down here in the natural acoustic chamber...
....see the following link for the full story of the caves and lake...
http://www.kefaloniatravel.com/kefalonia_cephalonia_underground_lakes_caves.html

ST GEORGES CASTLE
The old capital of Kefalonia - now quite a spectacular ruin with great views... A nice alternative day out, away from the beaches - take a picnic and explore the old ramparts

THE MONASTERY OF ST GERASIMOS
The little church next to the large cathedral is built over the cave that St Gerasimos lived in - you can go down into it - pretty amazing ... especially if you are brave enough to crawl through to his 'bedroom'! Look out for the ostriches they keep there too.

Take a day trip to ITHACA or LEFKAS.

Guestbook for Lime House

Robert and I were back to work today ... both slightly shell shocked after our time in Kefalonia.
What to say? We had the best holiday of our collective lives, thanks to the sublime beauty of Les Kai and Romer. We've taken lots of photos and will email you some at the weekend, after we've stopped sobbing that we are back in the UK!

In short, our holiday exceeded all expectations, so thank you, thank you!

Kind regards, Caroline, Robert and Hannah.


Hi Good Evening,

I must first apologise for not having put a finger to a keyboard before now and secondly I would just like to say that we had a wonderful holiday at Romer!

It is a place of dreams, a place of tranquillity and peace and a place where you feel obliged, in fact you are almost in some way spirited back to an age, an age when time, well time just stands still. Where all you really want to do, is remember the way it was, I allude not only to Greece but now to the UK, and not the way it is now. No, for us this was a wonderful holiday and one which we will remember down the years.

Anyway, I say again, sorry for the untimely delay in thanking you and your husband for a wonderful venue as well as an intense amount of intelligence on the area.

Please have a Healthy, Happy and Prosperous New Year,
Kind Regards,
Mark & Tania

PS: You were right about "Mama Mia" it is just quintessential Greece!
