The Limassol region


Limassol is a growing town with lots to do and see. Within the town there are local fish markets, traditional shops, a castle and a port allowing holiday makers to take weekend breaks to Rhodes, Egypt, Jordan and Israel.
Cyprus is rich in history, you can visit Kolossi Castle built by the Knights of St John, or take a trip to "the Northside" and see the only divided city in Europe, enjoy a wine tour in the beautiful foothills of the Troodos Mountains, or see the 2000 year old Roman ruins at Currium (Currium also hosts outdoor concerts and theatre in the summer months in the old ampitheatre - not to be missed!.)
Great for walking and exploring the rest of Cyprus either in the cooler mountains of Troodos or Paphos Forest.
Cyprus enjoys a Mediterranean climate hot summers and mild winters.This is a warm and friendly country where the majority of the locals speak good English.
The Pissouri / Pissouri Bay area
The villa is set in Pissouri bay, only 230 metres from the beach. Several very good restaurants including fish restaurant (Yialos) and an excellent Lebanese/Greek fusion restaurant ( Limanaki's) as well as home cooking at the family run Artemis, line the road to the beach. On Friday's during the main season a Cyprus night takes place at the Vineleaf Taverna. The bay also has a Pizzeria. Right on the beach, there is a great value kebab/snack restaurant. Skippers bar usually shows live UK sports on TV screens around the bar. For sports enthusiasts, a water sports centre and diving club are available on the beach. Bicycles can be hired from an office near the main hotel. There are some small gift shops, and a nail, hair and beauty bar within a short walk. A bank and ATM is located within a 5 to 10 minute walk of the villa. There are two small supermarkets within walking distance as well as a larger supermarket within 5 minutes drive, where there is a also a pharmacy.
Pissouri village, a few minutes away by car, is set upon a hilltop some 500 feet above the bay. It is a charming and typical Cypriot village with several tavernas, restaurants and shops. A quaint village square lined with restaurants forms the venue for the local weekly Cyprus night, with Greek dancing and music to entertain diners.
The 5000ft high mountain range of Troodos is a 45 minute drive and Aphrodite's rock is less than 10k away The stunningly designed championship golf courses at Secret Valley and Aphrodite Hills are within a ten minutes' drive.
There are waterparks in Paphos and Fassouri (Limassol) the latter offering the best value for money.

Excellent location, walking distance to the beach and situated at the end of a private road offering additional privacy. Large swimming pool allowing you the opportunity to actually swim! Lovely shaded patio area and fully equiped for our stay. Walking distance to many loacal restaurants and a short drive to the village. The perfect place to relax and unwind. Would definitely book again. |
Guestbook for Shells Villa
"We all had a fantastic week - the kids and adults loved it. We will be back next year!" -The Fleet family, Sale Manchester
Once again, we had a lovely week, our family wedding at Aphrodite Hills went very well but it was so hot we could not wait to get back to the villa and jump in the pool (please don't forget the thank 'the pool man'!). Paphos was a real culture day for us, the mosaics were absolutely fantastic, we have never seen the like anywhere else. We are also keen bird watchers and we saw a family of Eleonora's Falcons circling over the hills at the side of the villa while we were swimming in the pool ~ may not mean much to some people but for birdwatchers this would be a fantactic 'spot'. We would like to come back again and it would probably be earlier in the year when there are migrating birds and it is cooler so we can walk more.
