Charming Wooden Eco-House in unspoiled nature surrounding Sougia
Charming wooden Eco-house near Sougia (3 km). Built in the late summer of 2017. Between the villages Sougia and Moni on the southwest coast of Crete, situated in an olive grove on a hill, surrounded by mountains, stands this wonderful wooden Eco-house in unspoiled nature, with a distant sea view. Offering peacefulness and silence, yet very near to the crystal clear waters of the Libyan Gulf and all the amenities offered in Sougia village. There you will find a long pebbly beach, one of the most beautiful beaches of Greece and plenty of restaurants, bars and shops. It is also a perfect starting point for mountain hiking as it is connected to the E-4 hiking route.
As the house is surrounded by several acres of olive trees, in a very quiet environment, completely private, it is a perfect spot for people looking for true relaxation, silence and privacy. The house is completely made of wood and electricity is provided solely through solar energy. The house is approx 53 sq m with an extra storage room. It comprises a large living room with open kitchen. There are two bedrooms. In one bedroom you find a double bed (140 x 200 cm). In the second bedroom there is a single bed which can very easily be converted into a double bed (160 x 200 cm). All beds come with double orthopaedic mattresses and several pillows to choose among. Behind the house there is a garage on top of which the solar panels and the hot water system are mounted. As we named our house Eco-house, we try to keep it as "green" as possible. Except the solar energy we also provide our guests with fresh well water so they don't need to buy and use plastic bottles which are not being recycled yet in Greece. The house is painted with eco-paint, both in -and outdoors. We do not use pesticides in our olive grove either. Please, be aware, there is no WIFI connection available and there is no air-conditioning. All rooms are provided with fans though.

About the area
Kantanos-Selino
Located in Kantanos-Selino, this cabin is in a rural area and near the beach. While the natural beauty of Samaria Gorge - Agia Roumeli Entrance and Trypitís Beach can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can head to Port of Agia Roumeli. Scuba diving and snorkelling offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cave exploring and mountain climbing nearby.

About the host
Hosted by Corinne Falagaris
I have lived on Crete for more than 20 years and I love it! It is wonderful any time of the year. It's amazing to see all the different landscapes, the change of atmosphere when you travel around the island. Nothing is ever the same. And there is always more to discover. Crete's people and its impressive nature inspire me and I have been writing short stories about it for many years. In 2013, my first book was published, Kalimera Pefki. If you decide to visit Crete and stay in my house, I would be delighted to give you any information you need to make your stay a great one!
Why they chose this property
As the house is located in an olive grove, surrounded by old and some younger olive trees, in a very quiet environment, completely private, it is very suitable for people looking for silence, privacy and seclusion. The house is completely made of wood and electricity is provided through solar energy. The house is approx 50 sq m with an extra storage room. There are two bedrooms. In one bedroom there is a double bed (140 x 200 cm). In the second bedroom there is a single bed which can very easily be turned into a double bed (160 x 200 cm). All beds come with double mattresses and several pillows to choose among. Behind the house there is a garage on top of which the solar panels and the hot water system are mounted.
What makes this property unique
The perfect place to relax! The only complete house for rent in Sougia. Unique wooden house, including a fully equipped kitchen. Wonderful cozy atmosphere. Serenity. Silence. Nature. Surrounded by mountains. Distant sea view. Very near the village of Sougia with all its amenities and the wonderful beach and sea but in the house on the hill you are away from any noise, in peacefulness. Solar energy.
Eco: As we named our house Eco-house, we try to keep it as "green" as possible. Except the solar energy we also provide our guests with fresh well water so they don't need to buy and use plastic bottles that are not being recycled yet in Greece. The house is painted with eco-paint, both in -and outside. We do not use pesticides in our olive grove either.
Great starting point for mountain hikes (connected to E-4 hiking route) and visiting ancient sites.
