Tilos is one of the most southerly Greek Islands situated close to the Turkish coast near Rhodes and Kos in the Dodecanese. Smaller than its more famous neighbours it is still largely unknown and having avoided mass tourism it remains one of the few genuinely unspoiled Greek Islands. Tilos has two villages, Megalo Horio the capital and Livadia the port. Our village is a 2 minute walk from the villa with restaurants and a cafenion but is far enough away for total peace and quiet. There is also a museum which has bones from a dwarf elephant which were found in a nearby cave some years ago. Eden Villa has one of only four swimming-pools on the island is the only property for rent with a private swimming-pool. It is not overlooked and offers spectacular views of Skafi valley, the surrounding mountains and Eristos Bay to the south which boasts the best beach of many on the island. The mountain behind the villa hosts a ruined 15th century castle which can be reached on foot in about 45 mins.

Molivos is a delightful town in the north east of the island, dominated by its ancient hilltop castle and with phenomenal sea views. The winding cobbled streets reveal the tranquillity of traditional Greek life, majestic town houses, painted in reds and greens, alongside an array of stylish tavernas, bars and shops. There are a range of mini-markets nearby as well as a good baker and butcher. Nightlife is unsophisticated and mainly centres on the lively harbour front with its many tavernas and bars, some with live music, as well as the occasional nightclub.(Fewer bars, shops etc open in low season) There is an open-air cinema in peak season, with films in English. Minutes away from the house, the small town beach is pebbly, with sand out to sea, but the swimming is great, water sports, sun beds etc are available and there is a lovely open air pool adjacent. Nearby is the pretty village of Petra which has an excellent sandy beach and Eftalou, famous for its popular thermal baths..
The Island and further notes about the house.: Lesbos is Greece’s third largest island with dramatic mountain scenery and a landscape of olive groves and pine forests with the occasional monastery. It is a great place for walking, bird watching, relaxing on the beach and enjoying some of the best food in Greece. There are several thermal baths on the island including one at Eftalou just outside Molivos. The capital Mytilene is an interesting city to explore with museums and art galleries and a beautiful cathedral. The east of the island is characterised by lunar landscape and the fascinating petrified forest while Eressos, Sigri and Plomari are charming towns with pleasant beaches. Please note: We will leave kitchen basics for our guests to use. We would appreciate it if anything which is used up is replaced. There is also a video recorder in the study/baby room with a selection of videos (mainly for children) which you are welcome to use. Please leave everything in the house for others to enjoy!
Transport.: There is a reasonably good bus service across the island, especially between Molivos and Mytilini and May to September there is a regular bus service along the coast from Molivos to Petra and Anaxos. There is a taxi rank just outside the town and fares are cheap. A car is really not necessary but unless you wish to explore the island. There is a large port in Mytilini with daily sailings to Athens (about 9 hours) and Chios and less frequent sailings to Limnos and Rhodes. Domestic flights to Athens take about 45 minutes (Aegean and Olympic Airways). Direct charter flights from the UK (Gatwick and Manchester) are from May to Mid October on Thursdays (currently First Choice and Thomson). Otherwise you have to fly via Athens (Easyjet, Olympic and British Airways plus Aegean from Stansted. Aegean and Easyjet are cheaper than getting direct flight this year, In season the changeover day for rentals is Thursday. There are also direct flights from Holland, Norway and Germany.
Trips.: There is a very good book on walks in the area (in the house) which are particularly enjoyable in the early and late season. Bird watching is superb in spring and autumn and Molivos is about half an hour from the gulf of Kalloni where many interesting birds can be spotted (120 seen by guests!). Mountain bikes can be hired locally and for the less energetic donkey treks (often quite hilarious) can be arranged with local travel agents- usually into the nearby hills and ending up at a taverna. The swimming is good everywhere and you can snorkel around the rocks off Molivos. Serious beach bums might prefer to idle the day away at the nearby larger sandy beaches of Petra and Anaxos. Boat trips along the coast with swimming and barbeque are wonderfully relaxing.
Other Activities: Donkey trekking, Bird watching

Lesvos has virtually an inland sea called the Bay of Kalloni. It only has a very small outlet to the main sea. This makes the water very shallow and warm. Skala Kalloni is a working fishing port. The bay is fed by mineral rich streams and these minerals are reputed to give the sardines in the bay a unique flavour; delicious washed down with a glass of the local ouzo.The resort consists of a single road. The beach is extremely sandy and pleasant, ideal for children. The night life is focused mainly round the harbour with numerous tavernas and bars. During spring the area acts as a staging post for thousands of migrating birds so the village is very popular with ornithologists at this time of year. The petrified forest and it’s museum are one hour drive away. The famous medieval Molyvos is also one hour drive from Skala. These two destinations can offer excellent entertainment as a day trip.

It has recently been renovated and care has been taken to retain original features wherever possible. Downstairs consists of a comfortable living area, a dining area, a well equipped kitchen area and the bathroom. All the walls are stone and there’s a wood burning stove should it prove necessary. This area is wonderfully cool in summer and warm in winter! Upstairs, you’ll find the 3 bedrooms, all with pine floors and sloping pine timbered ceilings.

Drota beach, a mix of pebbles and coarse sand, is a 5 min drive away, though it’s also a very pleasant walk. It’s wonderfully quiet. There’s a little old cafe where you can get something to drink. The mountain village of Akrasi is 5 kms away up an unmade road (you’ll need to enjoy off-road driving!!). Here you will find traditional Greek coffee houses with some basic food. The nearest real centre with banks, supermarkets, restaurants etc. is at Plomari, a beautiful 40 minute drive from the cottage. Vatera, a long sandy beach with tavernas and night life, is about a 30 minute drive, partly on unmade roads. Natural history fans should pay a visit to the museum of Vrissa not far from Vatera. The capital of Lesvos, Mytilene, is about an hour’s drive from Drota. Lesvos has numerous natural hot springs, the waters of which are deemed to cure virtually every ailment you can imagine! Details on request. The island is also home to a well preserved fossilized forest – the only one in Europe.
The cottage is self catering but a Welcome Pack of breakfast things will be provided. Also, please feel free to help yourself to our stock of wine! Mains electricity. No land line. Signal for mobiles is poor in the village itself but cardphone and good signal down at the beach. Kitchen has a 3-ring gas burner as well as a small oven with 3 electric hot plates on top.

There are no roads into this remote village! You park under the shady plane tree and then walk! Our cottage is about 75 yards in. Although we have no garden per se you can sit directly outside the house as the path widens here creating a lovely area to sit and relax. In the summer, the few permanent inhabitants move down to live by the sea so you may well have the place to yourselves! Other people in the village will be those who, like us, fell in love with the place, bought a house there and did it up so there’s a wonderful sense of community spirit as everyone’s looking for the same thing- peace and quiet in a beautiful setting. The village has two churches (one is tiny!) and all the houses are old so it has retained its original character. In winter months, a brook runs under the little wooden bridge as it makes its way down the valley to the sea. Why not take a look for yourself on Google Earth?

If you look on Google Earth, Drota appears clearly midway between Plomari and Vrissa and is marked as Drota, Akrasi, Lesvos view. Our house is in the small hamlet due north of the beach by a big bend in the road, well before the hairpin bends. There are charter flights direct to Lesvos from London and Manchester (on Thursdays and Saturdays). Alternatively, you can fly into Athens and take a ferry (most of which travel overnight so you arrive the next morning) or hop on another flight from Athens to Lesvos (lots of them).

Other Activities: Painting (easel provided on request)

Eresos sits at the foot of a wild and grand mountain gorge. It is about an hour and a half’s drive from the airport and is a no-through village located 3 miles inland, through lush and fertile farmland, from the island’s most beautiful beach, Skala Eresos, boasting a 2.5 km stretch of sand adjacent to the crystal clear waters of the Aegean. The appeal of Eresos is to holiday without being surrounded by tourists and ‘tourist’ culture. With Skala Eresos in such close proximity it is easy to dip in and out of the numerous bars and restaurants catering for holidaymakers without them being right on your doorstep. This Greek village has remained unchanged for the past several years and is totally self-sufficient with 2 bakeries, 2 butchers, 3 greengrocers and a few grocery stores. There are also 3 really good local restaurants situated around the village square, and a small cocktail bar.

Skala Eresos is a beautiful beach resort with a traditional Greek feel. It does not have any large scale developments and has therefore retained a pleasant village feel which centres around the many seafront bars and restaurants which sit on elevated decks just above the sand overlooking the clean and clear Aegean sea. If you are looking for a very touristy resort then this is not for you. If however, you wish to relax, read a book, enjoy a swim, eat some good, unsophisticated food then it is. The village also has an open air cinema which operates during high summer and is a wonderful experience for all ages. Children are doted on in Greece so if you have a young family then it’s an ideal place for them to experience a little bit more freedom than they probably do at home.
