Home description
Nothing can quite compare with a holiday in the wholesome, serene environment of a village tucked in the hills of Cyprus.
Tochni village-Mespilo house offers you the unique opportunity to live in a traditional stone-built village home… stroll along the narrow cobbled paths to the village square…. have a coffee in the local coffee shop… and settle into an easy-going Mediterranean lifestyle that respects and nurtures timeless traditions. Before you know, you will be a member of the local community, and will enjoy the generous Cypriot hospitality that can be summed up in a single word, "kopiaste"… come and join us!
Established in 1987 by Sofronis Potamitis, in an effort to revive rural communities and preserve the traditional houses of bygone days. With loving care, several abandoned and ruined family houses were thoroughly renovated to provide comfort without sacrificing their original, rustic character.
Mespilio house is a complex of individual apartments with fully equipped kitchette with central heating/air condition and access to a shared pool nearby within walking distance. . Notice the thick walls, small windows, stone or wooden staircases so typical of our island’s architecture of yesteryear. On your veranda, in your patio or garden you can relax with a drink or a book any time of the day. In Tochni our guests will have the opportunity to enjoy the authentic traditional cuisine of our Tochni Taverna.
