Situated underneath the Venetian-era Pyrgos Castle in Santorini, it's hard to imagine this beautiful setting being the site of a factory, but rather remarkably, this home has an industrial history. In a former life, the building was used solely for the production of wine and tsipouro.

It has since been refurbished to become a set of four self-contained homes that can be booked out all at once. There are still signs of its history, from the cave-like rooms and the massive piece of machinery that sits in the middle of one of the living rooms.

However, there are plenty of luxurious touches that have since been added, like the swimming pool and Jacuzzi that sit in the middle of the outdoor space, as well as the dreamy rooftop terrace that looks out over the Aegean Sea and neighbouring islands.

The historic village of Pyrgos has medieval streets and alleys to peek around, as well as a handful of restaurants and the aforementioned castle. There's also an abundance of wineries in the local area if you feel inspired by the villa, as well as Kamari Beach, which can easily be reached with a car.

Home truths:
*There are four separate self-contained homes at the address, each with kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms — these can be rented out separately if preferred
*A cot can be provided upon request
*If the villa is rented out as a whole, the host will provide either two five-seat cars or one nine-seat vehicle — there's space to park at the property
*A welcome basket containing coffee, tea and basic food items is included in the price, as well as daily housekeeping, full linen change on the third night of your stay, wake-up call and concierge service
