Home description
We believe the location and the main structure of the house is over 800 years old. The house was purchased by the present owners in 2004 in derelict condition and was painfully and systematically restored to its present condition with the use of traditional and original materials. It is now recognised that the house is one of the best examples of restoration within the region of Limassol.
If you are looking for a tranquil relaxing holiday and you love nature, Silikou offers a direct encounter with typical village Cypriot life unchanged over the centuries, scenic walks and paths which lead into the surrounding villages, historic churches and monasteries, local wineries and nature trails.

The Limassol District
Limassol District is one of the six districts of Cyprus. Its main town is Limassol. A part of the district consists of the British overseas territory Akrotiri and Dhekelia and is under the sovereignty of the United Kingdom.
Established over 2,600 years ago, the village and its immediate area is well known for its antiquities and rich history. Silikou and the immediate area is recognised as one of the most ancient areas of wine producing throughout the Middle East, hence the large number of micro wineries that can be found within this region.
The location of the village and its altitude at 1,700 ft offers a unique micro climate of pollution free clear air and the cool breezes relieve the heat at the height of the summer. It is accepted by the locals that the winter and spring seasons are more enjoyable than the summer period.
