From the owner

Xyloporta ("wooden door") is made up of a group of old artisanal cottages which have been renovated to a simple but high standard. The bathrooms are all less than a year old and finished with polished concrete and White Company bath linen. The bedrooms are all unique and have different qualities, from a pretty breezy room with its own secluded terrace to a large grand room with fireplace and bath. There is only one that is not on the ground floor, which has a stone staircase leading up to it and a Juliet balcony looking out to sea. The cottages have their own access and their own terraces so it is possible to be "apart" in holiday "togetherness" which can sometimes be invaluable when in a large group! There is a small courtyard containing a central olive tree, shaded with plumbago and bougainvillea, an area for table tennis and the barbecue, a large sunbathing terrace leading to the infinity pool, with a splash pool for children shaded by a pergola. For small children, there are numerous little paths between the cottages and areas to explore within the confines of the property itself so it is exciting for them but relatively secure if the parents are by the pool keeping an eye. The property is surrounded by olive groves and the owners are planning a formal garden beyond the house.

It is an incredibly peaceful place, off the main road, with a unique air of tranquillity. There are good walks from the house up into the hills and the views of Kefalonia and the Pelopponese never fail to impress visitors. There is an easy walk to the sea and the beach for swimming, restuarants and the mini market plus watching the world go by if more life is needed.
