Limnes is about 4 miles from Latsida, a lot bigger than Latsida and has several tavernas, cafeneons, shops, a museum and a large building just outside the village for wedding receptions, etc. As with nearly all Cretan villages, this village abounds with churches.
The house is being renovated at the moment, and hopefully should be ready by the end of April. It is in a delightful position up a pretty lane, at the centre of the village. The traditional cretan entrance gate leads you into the charming courtyard. The front door into the house leads you into a spacious hall. On the ground floor level are two bedrooms, two bathrooms and the hall which can be utilised as an office if desired. Internal [and external stairs from the courtyard] lead up to the large L-shaped open plan living area, which consists of a large kitchen and defined dining and seating areas. From the living area, large patio style doors lead onto the generous terrace, from which the views are breathtaking. . You can see the villages of Houmeriako, Vrisses, Nikithiano, and Neapoli. Also, high in the mountains can be seen the ancient site of Driros. Griffon Vultures can be seen from the terrace, as they soar into the air looking for food. Goats and sheep can be seen being shepherded onto their mountain pastures. Its a delightful spot to sunbathe on, or sit in the shade sipping a cool glass of wine.
If you would like more details of this, or of the house in Latsida, or you would like details of other houses, then email us, we would like to hear from you.
