Home description
Detached modern 2008 villa on a small development of similar properties, with it's own private pool overlooking countryside, hills and a ravine to the rear. Distant sea view from front balcony. Peaceful location, yet only 5 mins drive, (or 25 mins walk) into Coral bay, with its many restaurants, attractions and superb beach with 2 tavernas, showers and watersports. 2 mins drive (or 10 mins walk) into Peyia village centre, with a choice of supermarkets, tavernas and superb views. The many attractions nearby include walking in the hills above Peyia or in the Akamos Peninsular, an unspoilt area of natural beauty and varied coastline, which is ideal for walking enthusiasts. Visit Turtle Beach, or drive over the hills to Polis area on the northern coast, or venture further afield to the Troodos mountains, featuring mount Olympus, home to the gods of greek legend.

The Paphos District
Cyprus boasts an average of 340 days of sunshine per year! We are located in the southern, Greek part of the island, while the Northern part is the Turkish area. (The boundary stretches from around Famagusta, through Nicosia to just north of Polis.) The charming western town of Paphos focuses around a pretty harbour, with picturesque open air tavernas and fish restaurants lining a quayside of bright fishing boats and pleasure craft. The food is generally superb and very reasonably priced when compared to UK. There are plent of historical sights to visit here, most notably the 'Tombs of the Kings'. Paphos is entwined with Greek mythology and the legendary birth of Aphrodite on its shores, which brought fame and worshippers to follow the cult of the goddess. Landmarks associated with Aphrodite are the chunky, rugged rocks of her beautiful birth shore known as the Aphrodite Rock or 'Petra tou Romiou', the evocative sanctuary of Aphrodite at Kouklia village, one time a shrine and scene of pagan festivals for thousands, the Baths of Aphrodite at Polis, supposed source of fertility and the Fountain of Love, or 'Fontana Amarosa', a few kilometres further into the Akamos Peninsular.
Peyia / Peyia Village area
Peyia (Pegeia) is a charming and quiet village perched upon the hillslope overlooking Coral Bay, only about 7 kilometres west of Paphos. You will find tavernas, local shops, banks, baker, fishmonger and butcher and restaurants here plus a lovely church and village square and gardens. The narrow streets are filled with old and interesting stone houses and colourful gardens. We are within 30 mins drive of 3 spectacular golf courses, so do bring your clubs! There is the fantastic and top quality Aphrodite Hills club, or Tsada (also in the hills above Paphos with some spectacular views) or Secret Valley, which lies a little further along the coast past Paphos. There is plenty to do in Coral Bay itself, including nightlife and restaurants plus it's famous blue flag beach with tavernas, showers and watersports available, and free parking! Further along the coast westwards is Agios Georgios, a lovely secluded beach and harbour, while past this lies the Akamos Peninsular, a wild area of natural beauty that is well worth a visit and ideal for walking. Here you will find Turtle beach, home to hundreds of loggerhead turtles that return each year to lay and hatch their eggs, with a lovely rural taverna overlooking the scene and ideal for a lunch. Much further past this point you will need a 4 wheel drive vehicle to explore the terrain by the dirt tracks available.
How to get there
Easyjet / British Airways / Thomas Cook / Cyprus Airways/ First Choice etc all fly to Paphos. - Try www.skyscanner.net for cheap flights. A friendly local and very competitive car hire company is available upon request, or hire from airport. - Best prices there we think are Europcar.

Further details indoors: Newly and quality furnished, we have attempted to provide a home from home, which it is for us. The main bedroom is furnished with solid oak bed, side tables with lights and a dressing table with large mirror. The en suite has a bath with shower. The second bedroom has white twin beds and a side table, this en suite has a shower unit. There is plenty of hanging and shelf space in the fitted cupboard units. Please note that the lounge suite consists of modern units which may be placed together to form a large bed of sorts, although it is not primarily designed for this purpose. So, we say that, ideally the property will suit 4 adults with the possibility of an extra bed (or even 2) in the lounge, if required. Guests should please bring their own beach towels for use around the pool. A cot can be made available if required.
Further details outdoors: The property is low walled and gated, so that toddlers should not be able to wander outside on their own. The patio area is under a pergola with table and chairs, with additional space next to it leading to steps down to the private pool area, with terrace and sun-loungers. The sun rises opposite the pool and travels over the property later in the day, so that late afternoon will find the pool in sometimes welcome shade. Dedicated sun worshippers, however, are still able to soak up the rays at the top of the steps next to the patio area overlooking the pool.
