Live off the land when you stay at this gorgeous home on a verdant three-acre farm in Crete. There are vines laden with grapes, as well as vegetables and avocados, quince, pomegranate, bananas and apricot trees – so it's easy to get your five a day here. There are plenty of herbs such as lavender, thyme and marjoram to flavour your cooking or G&Ts too. In the modern kitchen, when you arrive, you'll find some homemade wine and honey from your lovely host's own beehives, as well as a fruit basket. Spend idyllic days sat by the pool, taking in the hillside views, then enjoy a lunch of fresh produce on the terrace. Inside, crisp white, greys and moss greens create a fresh vibe. We love the high vaulted ceilings, as well as the countryside vistas from the windows. When you want to explore the area, there are a range of attractions nearby. Limnoupolis, a water park, is two miles away, while the Botanical Park of Crete is just over three miles. The old Venetian port of Chania, on the other hand, is just over five miles from this home. If you prefer to relax by the sea, then Stalos Beach is about five minutes in the car. Or, it's a ten-minute stroll to the pretty Agia Lake.
