Those who appreciate symmetry would do well to pay a visit to this idyllic address on the southern coastline of the Peloponnese peninsula. Two handsome villas made from local Mani stone and Byzantine tiles stand side by side at the centre of the plot, separated by a picturesque foliage-covered pergola leading to the garden. Out here, you'll find a long swimming pool, as well as plenty of loungers with views of the Greek countryside. Add to this a stone barbecue and a children's play area, and it's not hard to see where summer afternoons will be passed. The homes' interiors feel in keeping with the traditional exteriors. Look about and you'll spot antique furnishings from around the world, including an Alpine bookcase, vintage English washstand and Persian carpets. That being said, the rest of the design is fairly modern, with neutral tones and plush furnishings. Perhaps best of all, however, is the location, which puts you just a few steps away from Ritsa Beach. There are restaurants and the start of hiking routes in the town of Kardamyli about ten minutes away on foot, too.
