About this villa rental
A traditional cottage 9 minutes walk to the beach and castle . The bedroom overlooking the garden has a single bed and a small double, the master bedroom ( sea facing ) has a double bed with a very comfortable mattress. There is space for a cot in either bedroom. The refurbished kitchen blends in with the 18'' thick stone walls and original features such as beamed ceilings and mosaic marble sink outside - great for preparing lunch in the sunshine. Grape vines shade the dining patio and a high stone wall makes 'Phoebe' a private little haven. There's a gated parking area which doubles as a secure play area. You can walk to the beach over the wild and beautiful cliff tops - or more directly through the village. Stroll past the bakery (the smell of fresh bread is irresistible); grab a pastry, and as your route is straight down the historic main street between the end of our little lane and the castle, you can also collect a coffee at Filio's and have breakfast on the beach with the clear waters of the Ionian Sea lapping at your toes. Methoni is an idyllic village which does not suffer from over-tourism and has been awarded the status of ' village of special interest '. You will find the locals here warm and welcoming. Their hospitality is generous and genuine and for a small place Methoni has several truly exceptional restaurants as well as great no-frills souvlaki grill shops with tables out on the street.

Nigel and Fiona offer a well maintained property - everything works well! Clear instructions made it easy to find the house, local hidden nature and beauty spots. A really gorgeous and relatively so far untouristed part of Greece. We loved the peace, nature, sunshine and ease. Long may it last! Ancient historical sights were within easy reach - fascinating! We hope to be back for more exploring 😊

Villa Phoebe quickly felt like home to us. The bedrooms were quiet and cool at night with air conditioning, and the sitting room with overhead fan was cool and comfortable during the hot summer days. There were books for adults (all holiday houses should have books!), toys for the children to investigate and an outside shower, which was a huge hit. The walk through the village to the sea every day was good fun and gave us a great feel for the place. (Methoni is a real Greek town with a good, safe atmosphere and splendid beaches that are ideal for young children.) There wasn't a huge amount of space in the kitchen for storing or preparing food, but we ate out in the village most of the time so it didn't really matter and the kitchen provided everything we needed when we did eat at home. Also, we didn't actually use the top garden in the end, except for drying clothes - it just wasn't that practical with small children - but we used the terrace by the entrance a lot for breakfast and lunch, and that was fine.
Nigel and Fiona were great hosts and we felt they really took us to their hearts, going out of their way to help us with our queries and arrange taxis etc., which we really appreciated. We'd recommend their properties to anyone wishing to stay in an authentic Greek village house with the assurance of English-speaking assistance when / if you need it. Thanks again guys and hopefully see you another time!
