Coppice & Fig Tsagkarada, Thessaly

Property Description

Wake up to the calls of songbirds each morning at this character home in the hills of Tsagkarada – the gem of Pelion. With stunning sea views and luxury interiors, you'll feel as though you're the kings of the castle. Nestled in a natural setting, it's been lovingly modernised with a great deal of attention paid to its eco-credentials. It's far from rustic, despite its stone walls and shutters, with spacious rooms, comfortable bedrooms and stylish bathrooms. Cosy, organic bedding and locally-produced natural bathroom essentials mean you needn't worry too much about your carbon footprint. Cook your meals in the kitchen, where everything you could need has already been thought of, and choose between eating at the pretty dining table in the open-plan living room, or outside on the terrace. This home's most impressive feature, it's a private and beautifully furnished outside space with incredible sea views to the front – and a tucked-away spot where you'll find the hot tub. By day, explore the local villages and beaches – Fakistra is a ten-minute drive away and not far away you'll find Damouchari, where some of the film Mama Mia was shot.
