Villa on Quiet Complex with Local Taverna and Pool

We have just come back from spending 2 wonderful weeks at 'Chilterns'. The place was as described on the website and was superbly appointed from all aspects and we cannot think of 1 negative point to write about it. The property was spacious, clean and with plenty of cutlery, crockery, furniture etc. This is our 3rd time at Pissouri and so much better than last year's 'heath hazard' of an apartment (and we are STILL waiting for our deposit to be returned!). The wifi is an added bonus if only to make sure that the family are ok back in England. Plenty of brochures to browse through to plan the next meal or or trip to another part of the island. The welcome pack was so thoughtful especially after almost 16 hours travelling - that cup of tea was so welcome! We went to too many restaurants to name all but would like to mention Demiti at the Ampeli and The 2 Friends (fab food & fab service). We also went to 2 events at the amphitheatre (Abba & Status Quo tribute acts - both recommended) but sadly will miss the Take That tribute event this Friday so will have to come back next year to see them! We did hire a car from the airport and found that so useful to get out and about. Omodos is a lovely visit ...bit of a drive (60 mins plus) but well worth it. ..as was the dam near Limassol. I could write so much more about this wonderful island and friendly people but wont as you have to try it yourself. Many many thanks, Martin for letting us stay at your property and we look forward to telling our friends about it and hopefully are return visit sooner rather than later. Kind regards, Hilary & Brian Castle

We liked Chilterns. Our only reservation was that the beds were very hard but we coped. The location was excellent for us to explore Cyprus but we really liked the area around Pissourri. There were lots of good, friendly places for us to go out and eat. There were good food shops nearby. The local residents were all incredibly helpful and friendly.

The house was adequately equipped though fairly basic. If you want to wallow in luxury; spend a bit more. If you want a nice place to stay and a good base it is excellent. We explored most of Greek Cyprus and found it to be a wonderful place for a holiday, a perfect climate and some lovely scenery. Chilterns is handy for both Pathos and Larnaca Airports and is in easy walking distance from Pissourri Bay and it's amenities.

We were particularly interested in the Wildlife and found the hillside behind Chilterns excellent for all sorts of exciting things including Cyprus Wheatear, Cyprus Warbler, long-eared Hedgehogs, European Tree frogs etc, etc. we would definitely recommend it and hope to go back. The owner provided a good information pack. I hope the bed softens up a bit!

My friend and I spent a blissful week at Chilterns. The property has everything you need to self cater or eat out. We had breakfast every day and sometimes lunch but ate out in the huge choice of restaurants at the beach and up in the village of Pissouri in the evening. Our favourite lunchtime spot was the Aphrodite Hills restaurant at Avdimou beach, five minutes drive away, with its pastel sofas and roof sails. A very pretty spot.

The house was so comfortable and clean and the beds comfy too. It was dark by 6 so we had a meal out and came back to watch a DVD or just play cards listening to music.

The Ampeli restaurant next door is inexpensive and on the doorstep and from the terrace you can watch the lights coming on in the village up on the hill.

A visit to the Troodos mountains is highly recommended and the village of Kakopetria and the little monasteries. Kykkos monastery is a sight for sore eyes.

If I stay in Pissouri again I would certainly return to Chilterns and would recommend it. There is enough room for 6 people and I'd love to bring my son and his family as the children would love the pool opposite and the beach.
