INTERIOR
Michaels Cottage was built 110 years ago and is now in the care of the owner’s grandson. The cosy sitting room has built-in seating which can be used as a third small bed for a child if required and has one wall restored to the original stone.  A w/c shower room has also been added to this ground floor, to the side of the sitting room.

The bedroom is reached by wooden stairs from the sitting room and has twin beds which are set together to form a double bed. It is light and airy with open beamed ceilings and pine wood floors and has a small balcony from which to enjoy the views.

The small kitchen/dining room is reached by a separate entrance and has a lovely breakfast table surrounded by windows. The small kitchenette is equipped for simple holiday meals and still has the original bread oven.

EXTERIOR
The Cottage has lovely outdoor terraces from which to enjoy both sun and shade throughout the day. The built-in BBQ/outdoor kitchen is set next to the main house which is surrounded by cypress trees through which there is a convenient path leading to the main Stafilos road. The private pool sits just below the cottage..

 

SURROUNDINGS
Situated on the hilltops above Stafilos Bay, Michaels Country Cottage is conveniently located for those who want to be close to all. The position of this property is ideal for parties that want to be within walking distance to beaches and tavernas. A small foot path which begins at the cottage links up with the main road down to the beaches of Stafilos and Velanio which are reached in about a 10 minute walk. Car hire is not essential since the bus stop is a 10minute walk away and the bus service is fairly regular. In the vicinity, there are two restaurants and a small mini market for essentials.

Skopelos town with all of its amenities is approx. 4km away and can be reached by foot in approx 50 minutes along a little used dirt track. Please note** there is no local taxi service to this house due to the narrow, steep driveway. A mandatory escorted transfer fee of 30Euros will apply to all bookings not wishing to hire a car. Also please keep in mind that persons with walking difficulties or the unfit might find walking the steep uphill driveway challenging. In these cases, a hired car is highly recommended.

SUITABILITY
Michaels Country Cottage is perfect for couples wanting that romantic break from everyday stresses in life. This quiet cottage set in the woods is a wonderful choice for those wanting to be close to amenities and as well as have plenty of privacy. The additional possibility of a 3rd bed in the living room makes it even a good choice for small families. The private pool gives it that extra luxury and allows for relaxing days without leaving the cottage at all.
