Gîte très reculé en campagne permettant de découvrir un autre aspect de la Crête. Maison très bien équipée et vaste.

Die besondere Adresse in der Messara
Das historische Haus besitzt dank stilgerechter Gestaltung beinahe feudale Eleganz. In der Ortsmitte gelegen nimmt man teil am dörflichen Alltag. Der Blick geht über den benachbarten Hof auf das Meer der Oliven und die Schneeberge. Im Wohnbereich bleibt es kühl, oben gibt es aircondition. Großartige Orangenmarmelade und leckere Kekse und dergleichen erwarten die Gäste, welche diese Region im Südosten erkunden möchten.
Herzlichen Dank an Maria und Andreas sagen

Ein nettes, sehr vollständig und liebevoll eingerichtetes Häuschen, ideal für 2 Personen. Die Küche ist bestens ausgestattet, mit dem hier vorhandenen Geschirr könnte man auch 16 Personen mühelos bewirten... Alles war wie beschrieben und wie auf den Fotos zu erkennen. Andreas hat uns nett empfangen, und auch für das erste Frühstück stand alles bereit, sogar köstliche hausgemachte Marmelade. Die Lage ist sehr zentral in Fournofarango; das Dorf ist landwirtschaftlich geprägt, die Leute alle sehr freundlich. Von hier aus kann man perfekt Ausflüge in alle Richtungen unternehmen, ein Auto ist allerdings unverzichtbar. Die nächsten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind in Vagionia (kleiner Supermarkt, Bäcker, Gemüseladen, Metzger), die nächsten großen Supermärkte gibt es in Moires. Eine gute Taverne ist in Loukia, in 15 Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen. Nur die Terrasse konnten wir nicht nutzen, da wir im Februar da waren und das Wetter nicht mitspielte; sie bietet auch nur wenig Privatsphäre - zum Sonnen würde man wohl eher an den Strand fahren. Hingegen haben wir den Kamin ausgiebig genutzt und zusammen mit der Klimaanlage im oberen Stockwerk die Wohnbereiche einigermaßen warm bekommen.
