Description from owner
Description
125 years after its construction and initial use as an olive mill, "1891" Home was fully renovated. Magnificent views at the Aegean Sea and the Mediterranean sky makes it the holiday house everyone dreams of.
The house is located in the village of “Kefalas” one of the oldest villages in the area of Apokoronas.
Daily life in Kefalas impresses the visitor with its tranquil pace.
