About this property

Pristine Mountain Escape — Sweeping Views, Privacy, and Serenity

Α dreamy centuries-old, renovated gem of a farmhouse in the mountains, for people who love nature, the tinkling music of goat bells, and each other! With spectacular views of five Cycladic Islands and the surrounding rugged hills, this property is perfect for those seeking peace and a chance to hike, paint, write or think.

We've taken great care in updating the two separate traditional cottages on the property: renters get the entire place to themselves when they stay. Surrounded by an herb garden and fig, pomegranate, almond and olive trees, the home has incredible views in all directions.

The Space
This mountain retreat blends historic architecture with artistic design, sparkling cleanliness, and modern amenities. Every detail has been impeccably and creatively decorated.

The open-plan upper cottage sleeps three (one twin bed and two twin sofas) and has a charming kitchen, living room, dining room and bathroom. The pergola-covered terrace is perfect for dining al fresco.

Across the garden patio, the lower cottage sleeps four (one queen bedroom and another room with a bunk bed for two) and has its own bathroom and kitchenette.

This is the quintessential “Old Greece,” a bit off the beaten path, but within fifteen minutes of four villages, a dozen beaches, and several delicious tavernas.

Only for those who seek magical settings.

PLEASE NOTE: the air conditioning is only in the lower house in the master bedroom. The upper house is cooled by fans and mountain air.

A perfect dream house located in paradise
First, let me say that my wife and I have traveled to many places around the world. For me, staying at this house in Paros is for sure on top of my list. It was PERFECT! The house is so comfortable. You just immediately feel at home here. The views were amazing. The house was so spacious. The location was superb. You are only one exit away from a wonderful beach village of Aliki. The hostess was so accommodating. She made sure that we got our rental car, gave us maps and great advice on places to go and see. Even a map and orientation of all the wonderful beaches to visit. Staying at this house was perfect. I never wanted to leave and even am considering moving to Paros sometime in the future.

Beautiful Mountain Retreat
This is a lovely property with a beautiful outdoor space where you can eat and relax under the stars. There are nice spaces for that afternoon siesta as well. Inside, there is a quaint but well provisioned kitchen and livingroom in the main house. The bedrooms in the other building are very nice as well. One is perfect for kids and the master suite is quaint and comfortable. The place was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed visiting a variety of beaches, touring some of the outlying towns, going over to Little Paros for pizza (and wandering about) and eating at the many fine restaurants in town. Very enjoyable!

Idyllic perch overlooking the Mediterranean
This home has everything you could possibly want for a Greek island getaway: the property is nestled on a spot overlooking a stunning expanse of hills and sea. The two lovely adjacent buildings, decorated with sweet touches, look like they belong on a postcard, have comfy beds, a great well-equipped kitchen, and a wonderful porch that is perfect for enjoying the view (cannot say enough about the view!). And this is all just a short drive from local stores, nearby towns with great restaurants (amazing food - come prepared to eat!), and scores of beautiful beaches ranging from public, right in town, to hidden spots. A perfect day went something like this: lazy breakfast of local bread and fresh eggs on the porch, quick drive to a beach, lunch at a lovely restaurant, back home to rest (as one should!), then back out to explore a beautiful old town with winding streets and crafts, another amazing meal for dinner as the sun sets, then back to the house for a quiet night where the only sound is wind in the trees. The manager was easy to access and everything was spotless.

Relaxing, Quaint Cottage with Mountain Views
My favorite part of this rental is the wonderful patio complete with a slate table for dining out in the beautiful garden. There are also lovely spots to take that afternoon siesta, while listening to the tinkling bells of the goats on the next property over. The two cottages provide ample space for sleeping and relaxing inside as well. It is not far from stores, restaurants, and other attractions yet far enough away not be right in the middle of a lot of people. Just what we needed for rest and relaxation.

Amazing, magical place!
The house and garden are just wonderful. I loved eating breakfast in the garden, gazing at the sea to the music of tinkling goat bells. There are multiple outside spots to hang out - perfect reading, resting, or eating. There is a beautiful view of the sea and several other islands in the distance. There are also dirt tracks and roads for walking from the house, which I enjoyed. Can't recommend it enough!

Why they chose this property

This is our beloved family home. We have renovated and designed it with comfort and beauty in mind. We visit every year and it is part of the wonder of our lives.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the tinkle of goat bells as they graze in the mountains and olive groves and relax in your secluded home wrapped in patios and gardens — with thrilling views to the sea and the islands beyond.

About Paros:
Paros is truly an island with something for everyone – perfect for families with small children, couples or groups of friends and older travellers. It sits at the center of the Cycladic islands in the Aegean sea. The island’s excellent sandy beaches and sparkling waters are also world-famous for kite surfing and windsurfing.

Paros also offers rich historical treasures, fun shopping and art galleries, and top-notch locally produced food and wine.

To explore the Cyclades, ferries operate regularly throughout the high season to Naxos, Mykonos, Santorini and Tinos (and other islands, too!). The charming small island of Antiparos is served by frequent, quick daily ferries year-round from nearby Pounta port.
