Renovated- traditional 100 year old stone house, which reminds of a refugee. Settled in a small village, Zourva, at an altitude of 650 m. in the heart of the mountains with a cypress forest and beautiful walking paths. Two taverns in the village. Moreover, the area is ideal for those who love trekking, caving or canyoning in the incredibly beautiful and wild White Mountains.
The whole house (85 square metres) is made of stone and wood, with windows providing a breathtaking view to the cypress forest and the gorge of Tromarisa.
The kitchen is furnished with all the necessary electrical devices for cooking.
In the house, there is a radio-cd player, so that music will acompany your cosy and romantic nights, as well as a backgammon and cards for those who want to have a playful time during their vacations.
The house is ideal not only for all those who love nature and peacefulness, but also for those who are seeking adventure and action in nature.
Zourva is a small traditional village with an astonishing view and a beautiful cypress forest. It is a perfect choice for those who want to relax and escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, but also ideal for those who want to try some more activities such as trekking, on beautiful walking paths throuth the forest until up to the mountains. There is also the chance for extreme sports lovers to live the experience, doing canyoning in canyons in the around area (with various degrees of difficulty), but also in the "Tromarissa gorge" (the canyon of the village).
Roula's place is truly amazing - the picture of the view does not lie at all. It really is that good. The inside is warm and rustic and just what you want in that context. As seems to be the tradition in Crete, the beds are pretty hard. The village really is in a spectacular spot and the whole area is fragrant with orange blossom and pine. Roula was extremely welcoming and helpful and left is eggs, lemons, oranges and the basics. All around 10/10.
Gabrielle2017-05-04T00:00:00ZIf you are staying in Crete, and looking for a place to relax and have some peaceful time to yourself, this is the location for you. The amazing photos of the house barely do it justice: you are located on the side of a mountain, with great mountains to look at (and hike up!) in one direction, and a view down the valley and out to the sea in another. After the hike, you can go to Chania, or just eat locally and enjoy the great food and live the rustic life with modern amenities. Roula is a knowledgeable and warm host. I cannot recommend staying here more.
Mike2017-05-09T00:00:00ZIf you like a view from where you stay, come here. 1 minute walk from a good taverna, and 8 minutes from an excellent one. Eagles flying high above, daily. The edge of the mountains - literally. The limit of AirBNB's rather poor packaged review system - it doesn't let you describe "real" places like this.
Alastair2017-04-20T00:00:00ZWhat an adventure where we experienced a real taste in Cretan mountain living. We stayed in Zourva during the worst weather since 2004 as everyone informed us, but Roula left us with wood, oranges, mountain tea and a taverna within walking distance which is owned by Maria, Roula's auntie. We could not have been made to feel more welcome by Roula's family in the taverna and also her parents in Fornes further down the mountain. Roula was great with keeping in contact prior to our arrival and we will definitely visit again but maybe in the summer to see Zourva in full bloom!

The property is absolutely top class with the added benefit of a great swimming pool. We would have extended our stay there if we had had the time for it. It is a fantastic home for families or friends. I could not recommend it enough.
