Vacation Rental Description
The beautiful village of Megalochori makes a welcome and peaceful alternative to the busy tourist attractions of Fira, Oia and the jostling of the summer crowds. Protected from the strong Cycladic winds, the traffic free winding lanes lead directly to the village square with its pretty churches and picturesque Venetian bell towers. The Stone House can only be described as a ‘small treasure’. Tucked away in the heart of the village, it is a gentle 150 meter stroll up a foot path from the village square, to the charming villa. The name is derived from the exterior of the house which is clad in local volcanic stone.
This newly renovated villa, originally a ‘canava’, was once used to produce the sweet nectar-like dessert wine, ‘Vinsanto’, which is unique to the island of Santorini. Two cylindrical troughs, once used for distilling the wine have been preserved to make unusual interior light features.
The enclosed cobbled courtyard has a private plunge pool which doubles as a Jacuzzi with four massage jets to one side of the pool. The ‘canava’ has one open-plan room which serves as a sitting room and bedroom, with a small kitchenette to the front of the villa. The spacious Moroccan style bathroom boasts with hand-crafted brass fittings and has a stone banquette and large shower.
The Stone House is perfect for a couple that are looking for a small, traditional and uniquely Santorinian home on the island.
About Greece Santorini
Regarding the location of Megalochori werncould say that is a lovely village located in the centre of Santorini, withrnwhite painted houses, beautiful churches, narrow cobble streets and a quantrnvillage atmosphere surrounded by vineyards. It provides a perfect base fromrnwhere to explore the island of Santorini. To get to the best beaches of the island (Perivolos, Vlyhada, Red Beach) is justrna 10 minutes’ drive. At the same distance is the capital (Fira). The village itself has 3 excellent restaurantsrn(one owned by our company called RAKI),a local bakery & a mini-market. Yourncan also enjoy a visit to the local winery Gavalas for wine tasting (2 minutesrndistance from the villa).Closing I would say that Megalochori is a true reflection of the local Santorini experience!
