Mountain Village House on Walking Route
Katerina's unique independent villa is located within its own grounds in the heart of a mountain village at around 200 metres above sea level. It is 35 mins (down) to 50 mins walk up from the Chora (Andros Town). The house is located almost directly on Andros walking Route 18 and is ideally positioned to take advantage of the Islands extensive walking network. It is however located some distance (a few hundred yards and many steps) from the nearest car parking area. This has the advantage of there being no road noise, but it will not be suitable for everyone. We stayed for 11 nights in early November and did not need a car. Walking to the supermarket and restaurants in town on the old paths was a joy.
The house, which dates from various periods is a bit quirky. The lounge is the most recent and is a big airy room. The bathroom, which is the oldest has a beamed very low ceilings. The house is fully equipped and, as long as you are looking to stay in an original village home with lots of character you will love it. The only real limitation for us was the size of the beds. If you are average height and build they are probably just usable as doubles We had to use a bedroom each. Overall, a great place to stay in Andros.
