About this property

DAPHNE COTTAGE PRIVATE POOL PEACEFUL LOCATION 5 MIN DRIVE TO THE BEACH

3 cute cottages, named MULBERRY TREE, DAPHNE and CHESTNUT TREE, with private pool each one, and very nice surrounded terraces full of trees, plants and flowers, located at Potami (means river) area, between Agnontas beach and Panormos beach. They are full of character with elegant interior decors, entirely suited to the gloriously peaceful rural setting. They are set on the hillside overlooking the Potami valley, on land that has been in the family for over 100 years.
The Potami area is a part of the island rich in water with plentiful springs, and as a result covered with plain trees and orchards. The whole area provides many wonderful walks, with paths leading through the mountains, past picturesque chapels and other cottages, on down to the coast. By crossing through a wooden bridge, you are entering to the property, of 15 acres, which is covered with olive, plum, walnut, cherry, chestnut and almond trees, and a paved road leads you to the cottages.
The location is the most beautiful in the middle of the island, in a green enviroment with many springs around. All cottages are surrounded by many trees and plants, the pool and sunbathing area, composing a very secluded and peaceful place. The perfect escape. A beautiful place in a green environment, romantic get away.

DAPHNE COTTAGE
This is the one of the two new cottages. The cottage is surrounded on two sides by a spacious terrace, with a barbecue, table for outdoor dining and wonderful views across the valley. A few steps lead down from the terrace to the swimming pool which is surrounded by further grounds. It is a two storied cottage. In the ground floor there is a living room with a fireplace, a kitchen and a shower / WC. A staircase leads to the top floor where is the air-conditioned double bedroom with a large veranda. It is suitable for 4 people.

Wonderful and memorable holiday for the whole family
From our  initial communication , Pipitsa  was most helpful and informative giving us all the transport options (ferries buses and car hire) on the island .We felt very welcome at d Daphne cottage .We were  amazed by the fabulous views and the lovely terrace and how quiet the place was. The swimming pool was very clean and perfect for our family. The house was also super clean , sheets and towels were changed very often.  Our host could not have done more to make our holiday special .The cottage is close to wonderful unspoilt beaches.  We discovered new uncrowded beaches on the island every day. The cottage offers good access to supermarkets and local tavernas where we had good value delicious meals . We found the island magical and very unspoilt. Our teenagers were delighted to go on the sunset kayak trip and paddle boarding all in all we had a brilliant holiday Thank you Pipitsa and Giannis !

Our Idyllic Stay at Daphne Cottage
We fell in love with Daphne Cottage from the minute we arrived. Pipitsa & Giannis are such a lovely, friendly couple and made us feel very welcome. The cottage was extremely clean and well-equipped, simply furnished and full of character. The peaceful surroundings and views across the valley are so beautiful and the two terraces are perfect places for sitting and relaxing. When it got too hot, we just cooled off in the pool, which always looked very inviting. The cottage was very private. We hired a car (essential) and this gave us the freedom to explore the beautiful island of Skopelos. If you are looking for a peaceful holiday in an idyllic setting then these cottages are for you. We found it very hard to leave :(

About the host

Hosted by PIPITSA KARATHANOU

Host profile image
Giannis Kohilis a joiner. Born in Chicago in 1960, moved in Skopelos in 1965. Married to Pipitsa who is born in Volos and has been in Skopelos for the last 30 years, being a bank employee. We have 2 sons, Giorgos who studies Physics and Vangelis who loves playing bouzouki.
My father transfered to me the property in 1990, which had been in my family for over 150 years. It consisted in a piece of land with olive trees and an old cottage, built in 1905. Me and my wife renovated carefully the cottage (Mulberry tree) in 1992 and built the other 2 cottages in 2001. We have designed the external and interior features and taken care personally in furnishing and decorating all of them, in simplicity, to improve them from a family holiday place, to a spacious and comfortable resting lodge.

Why they chose this property

The property belongs to my family for about 2 centuries and the location is the most beautiful in the middle of the island, in a green environment with many springs around and a small river, where the old times the family passed the summer holidays.
We had spent many memorable times at the old cottage, with the family and many friends, enjoying the beauty of the countryside, so we decided to rent the property with the idea of sharing all the wonderful experiences Skopelos has to offer.
One may take short or long walks in the natural landscape, with paths leading through the hills, pass by picturesque chappels, other cottages and many springs.

What makes this property unique

Olive fields and forested land extend to the right and left and above our land ensuring seclusion. All 3 cottages are surrounded by many trees and plants, the pool and sunbathing area, composing a very secluded and peaceful place.
You have the company of the cicadas in the daytime.
Early in the morning and in the afternoons you can enjoy the delight chirping of the nightingales.
On clear and cloudless nights, you can enjoy stargazing in an absolutely absent wind atmosphere.
Tranquillity at its best but just a short distance from all amenities and beaches.
A beautiful place in pure nature, total privacy, deep quiet.
Friendly for kids, ideal for people looking for a romantic getaway, the perfect escape. We personally take care of the cottages, to ensure relaxing holidays.
