Up, Up & Away Agios Georgios Nilias, Thessaly

Property Description

Escape the island's crowds and discover the quiet coastlines and dramatic terrain of Greece's mainland peninsular instead at this hideaway nestled high in the hillsides of Pelion. Commanding the most astonishing views of the sea, and with a picture-perfect village just a short stroll away, settings don't get much more idyllic than this.

Savour long, lazy lunches beneath the pergola. Slope away to the hammock beneath the mulberry tree and lose yourself in a good book. Or beat the heat with a dip in the infinity pool. Wherever you choose to be, those views will be right there.

Inside, while this home may not be the most luxurious in our portfolio, it brings all the rustic charm that you'd hope from a sleepy mountain village abode. Beneath the villa's exposed wooden rafters, bespoke carpentry and statement lighting fuse together for a refreshing touch of modernity. And there's everything you need to rustle up a bite to eat in the compact but well-equipped, modern kitchen.

When it's time for adventure, seek out the hiking trails lacing through the surrounding hillsides. Take an amble into the dreamy village of Agios Geogrios Nilia (seven minutes on foot) for a feast in its traditional tavernas. Or follow the winding mountain roads down through the clouds and chestnut forests to the sandy beaches (half an hour's drive).
